Last night we went out to Score Bar in Columbus. There we were treated to prizes and free rum drinks from our Pride group at work, and Mount Gay Rum. I have to say I’m not a rum drinker, Vodka drinks or Guinness are my first choices when it comes to beverages of [...]

My HOMO SEX IS IN t-shirt was a smashing success at the gay pride parade today - yeah me ;)  I almost didn’t wear it - wasn’t feeling all that up to standing out in the crowd - but decided last minute to go ahead and wear the thing - and I’m glad I did [...]

My Sirius Stiletto 10 radio, has this lousy habit of stuttering, and then rebooting itself. I’ve only had it since March, when I decided to get it to replace my sturdy S50. When I first set it up, I dutifully installed the Sirius Studio software, and upgraded the firmware on the SL10 to [...]

My day started out with Charlie telling me that Hillary got her magic 10% victory. I should have taken that cue, and went back to bed and just stayed there. But, I’m an optimist, and so I take the news in stride and continue with my plans for the day, Charlie makes me [...]

I’ve pretty much worn the same hair style for… oh a long long time now - don’t make me quantify it with a number. It’s just so much easier to deal with hair when you don’t have much of it to deal with. The grey creeps in quicker these days, and I [...]

Turned 42 this past weekend, had lunch at Gordon Biersch with Charlie and some friends before watching some of the Ohio Junior Jackets vs. Waterloo Black Hawks hockey game at Nationwide Arena.

Later that night we went to the BlueJackets / Red Wings game and watched them lose - sat in front of some jackass Red [...]

Claddagh Irish Pub’s fish fry and a pint of Guinness - is there anything better? Seriously?

Watched a good movie tonight - Un amour à taire - (A Love to Hide) it’s a french movie from 2005 - with subtitles - about a family in Paris during WWII and the tragedies of the Nazi occupation [...]

It’s melting … the snow that is, and it’s almost time to get the motorcycle out - after all the price of gasoline isn’t getting any lower … ugh.  The weather was beautiful today - but I was stuck in training all day - although the trainer took us all out for Mexican food for [...]

So the day starts out all nice and normal, and I didn’t get stuck in the driveway with the remaining snow on the road as I trekked to my training this morning.
And then it shows up this afternoon, on the overhead projector in the class, during a break, the instructor is surfing the news sites [...]

Had fun shooting some footage of the snow and Rocky yesterday with the new Sony camcorder - I took some screen captures for this montage - still figuring out how to clip the movies in iMovie to create a little youtube-ish video for the blog.
Shoveling has been a pain in the back, and more to [...]

Yee ha!  The snow has been falling almost all day - it did let up this evening, but is supposed to resume falling overnight.  Mind you it’s nothing like we used to get back in Western New York, but I’ll take it.  And to call it a Blizzard is a pretty big stretch in my [...]

So much to do with rebuilding this site. I don’t want it to be just like it was and of course I want to imrpove and add some new stuff .. Like the flickr pix… and may start podcasting this go around. With the political season well underway, it’s as good a time as any [...]

Woke up and went to the beach with Charlie this morning to watch the sun rise on a new day.

I got a puppy .. he’s the most adorable puppy ever, seriously, he’s so cute and wonderful when he’s sleeping you wouldn’t believe it. His name is Rocky and he’s a 12 week old boxer mix breed neutered male that we picked up from the Delaware Animal Shelter.

He’s a playful boy, and he’s teething, [...]

32° the dashboard said at 8:something in the morning as we headed out to join with 3000+ other runners and walkers to enjoy the tradition of a 5 mile trot on Thanksgiving day.

Charlie and my brother Bill were there to support me and try to keep warm while waiting for me to cross the finish [...]

Thanks everyone for turning out to turn this Government around in it’s tracks, and stop the culture of corruption, by reinstating the Constitutional checks and balances that by their very nature help to prevent the abuses of power we’ve seen these past years from the Bush Administration.My cellphone ringer is now set to play the [...]

This race seems to be one of my better races - last year I had a new PR at 27 minutes even. This year, after I ran the Race for Hope at 30:14 three weeks ago, I decided I needed to get serious about training. I’ve been running on the treadmills at work [...]

I’m volunteering at the polls this election … going to be a long day … but hopefully a good experience, that improves my outlook on the viability of our fragile democracy.The Republican’s are cutting and running from Ohio.The Religious right may be having their “coming to Jesus” moment as they realize that the Republican party [...]

Ran the Race for Hope 5k at Griggs Reservoir this morning. Ran this race last year for the first time, and since it’s literally across the river from my house, I felt a little obligated to run it this year. I had signed up for it months ago, but haven’t run hardly at [...]
