Can’t blog now, playing with my iPod Touch!

  • 27 Dec, 2007

This year for Christmas, my wife got me an iPod Touch! This little device is extremely cool and I’m completely addicted. I now have an iPod that plays videos and Handbrake will become my new friend. It also has a calendar built in with two way syncing with iCal. Cool! And lets not forget Safari. […]

Merry Christmas | Happy Holidays

  • 21 Dec, 2007

It’s been a hectic month and I can’t believe that this is only my third post in December. I guess when it gets busy, it gets busy. However, I just wanted to take a moment and thank all the readers and visitors to Blog on a Stick. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and all that jazz! […]

90 Minutes With Super Mario Galaxy

  • 15 Nov, 2007

My wife brought home Super Mario Galaxy we spend 90 minutes playing it last night. I have to say that even though Princess got taken again, it’s a phenomenal game. Mario is back in all his glory. The worlds are amazing. You are on round levels that you can literally run all the way around. […]

I am not a spammer.

  • 11 Nov, 2007

It seems that something or someone found a hole one in one of my WordPress installs and started sending out spam early this morning. My host then shut me down completely and this site was suspended for several hours on Sunday because I was spamming. 🙁 We are back up and running now but not […]

Mac OS 10.5 Leopard – Bad Kitty Cat

  • 9 Nov, 2007

To my surprise today, I filled up my hard drive. I had less than 500MB left! Shocked, I quickly tried to find out why as it didn’t make any sense. Then I saw it. After installing Mac OS 10.5 Leopard, via an archive and install, it seems he left behind a ‘Previous Systems’ folder. That […]

Whoops, I just sent like 400 StumbleUpon Friend Requests

  • 2 Nov, 2007

It seems that StumbleUpon can connect to your Gmail account and auto-magically connect you with those that have StumbleUpon accounts. I thought that was cool so I did it. I didn’t realize that it was also sending invites to all those in my address book that weren’t on StumbleUpon. Since I have 419 random emails […]

Is GIMP cool or lame?

  • 30 Oct, 2007

I’m a big fan of open source, or alternative, software. I’m not a fan of paying hundreds of dollars for an application. Needless to say I’m not a big fan of Microsoft or Adobe. So what’s a good open source graphic design application? I’ve tried a lot of programs and now I’m looking at GIMP. […]

Suggestions for a digital camera?

  • 29 Oct, 2007

Our digital camera has long since disappeared. I’m not sure if I left it in California or if it’s just lost around the house. Either way, we are in the market for a new digital camera. We took a quick look at BestBuy, Target and online over the weekend and there are so many good […]

Now on Mac OS 10.5 Leopard!

  • 27 Oct, 2007

I stood in line last night like a good Apple geek to get Mac OSX 10.5 Leopard and a free t-shirt! I installed it this morning and it’s running great. I did the archive and install option and it’s all wonderful. I love the new dock and the rounded corners on the menus. Small things […]

While at WalMart the other day, we ran across the one of the coolest cakes I’ve ever seen. It’s a hamburger & fries cake. // Image lost.If you really want it back, comment below and I’ll dig. // Everything pictured above is either cake or frosting. Right down to to the fries and ketchup. To […]
