The garden has been bountiful this year. With 4 plum tomato plants, 4 Early Girl, 4 Bonny Best and 1 Rutgers plant I’m swimming in tomatoes. Also with 12 sweet pepper plants, 8 jalapeno plants, 4 salsa pepper plants and about 5 dozen onions, I’ve decided to spice things up a bit when it comes… Read More »

Fantasy Seasons Intermixing

The Fantasy Football league starts this Thursday. Last Wednesday we ran through our mini-draft to flesh out our keeper teams. I.e. dropped four players and drafted 4 new players to my existing 16 man roster.

Golf Season ’07

New Car Stereo

To celebrate (or mourn) the sale of the Jetta, I installed a new Sony head unit into the CRV.  The old Alpine 3 pack player was showing its age:  wouldn’t play writeable CDs, couldn’t play MP3s, the display was in Klingon.  It was and still is a great player though.  Very powerful especially when I… Read More »

Music invokes memories (redux)

In my profession, I have a lot of time to listen to music.  I have a large collection and varied mix of music that I have stored on my drive.  I’ve decided that I like pretty much any kind of music as long as it has that extra something.  It’s hard to define that extra… Read More »
