14 Mac Only Twitter Applications

  • 7 Apr, 2009

There are no shortage of Twitter applications out there. Each client seems to have a slightly different feature set too.

Today I turn 30, or 29.1.

  • 30 Mar, 2009

This year, I decided to turn 29.1 instead of 30.  Now, it’s not that I’m afraid of 30, but I just felt like it sounds better if I stay in my 20’s a bit longer. 😀 Yes, it’s true, I’m now 30.  Back when I was a kid there was not internet, no cell phones, […]

Someone Needs to Clean Lego Land

  • 22 Mar, 2009

If you’ve been by the Mall of America, you can’t miss Lego Land.  It’s a wonderful playground full of Legos and fun.  However, I don’t think it’s been cleaned since the day it was opened. Sure, down low all is good. But the view from the second or third level shows dust caked on all […]

BackBlaze

I’ve been thinking about getting an online service to backup my computer for a while now, however most services made the plans confusing, didn’t have a Mac client, or had price levels that just made it more than I wanted to spend. However, I signed up for Backblaze and it’s been wonderful ever since. I […]

OMG Valleyfair is for Sale!!

  • 9 Mar, 2009

Cedar Fair announced that Valleyfair is for sale! I guess Cedar Fair wants to pay down it’s debts and that means putting Valleyfair up for the highest bidder. Granted, I’d love to own it, but I don’t think $100 would cover it. However, even more disturbing news is that Cedar Fair is thinking of selling […]

New Little McMahon This August

  • 26 Feb, 2009

This August my wife and I will welcome a new addition to our family. We don’t know if it’s a boy or girl yet, but will know before it’s born.  However we don’t plan on sharing it with anyone.  🙂 Until the baby arrives, we have a lot of getting ready to do.  We already […]
