Waiting for Warmer Weather

From a trip I made to Barre, VT last year to take care of some family business. There’s no highway to take you from Newport, VT to Barre so it’s scenic back roads the whole way and I always take my old Kodak digital "point and shoot" with me since it’s best at landscape [...] Read more »

Can’t Have my and Cake and Eat it Too.

If your wondering why I haven’t really been posting much or bothering my favorite sites like I usually do, I’ve been dealing with a rather huge leap in my blood sugar level (like off the scale) over the past week or so. This of course messed me up pretty bad and came as a complete [...] Read more »

Lights Out!

We have to spend an hour today with our lights out? Hell, I’ve been been doing that my whole life, not just for an hour either. Those that know me keep saying that I’m always running with the lights out.

Sending an Oblique Message to China?

Four nose cone fuses for intercontinental ballistic missiles were mistakenly shipped to Taiwan supposedly in the Fall of 2006. A mistake that wasn’t found until just very recently so the officials say.
Okay…I believe it. And it’s obviously a complete and utter coincidence that it happened right in the middle of China having such [...] Read more »

WordPress 2.5 RC2 Hits the Streets

For those brave souls who have been running the "bleeding edge" builds or WordPress 2.5 RC1, WordPress RC2 has been released and is ready to be downloaded. I’m not going to provide a download link for those who haven’t already seen this in their Dashboard’s for the following reason:

A Quilting We Will Go

I’m headed to the Quilt Shop this morning while Laurie is on her bi-monthly business run down south (central Vermont that is). Some big changes coming up for shop in the next couple months or so, changes for the better we hope. In the meantime I’ll be gone for a good part of the day [...] Read more »
