  • Debating Hosting the Superbowl Party and Ford Fusion

    We are considering hosting the Superbowl party over at our house this weekend. I’m thinking if I can borrow the projector from work, we could have a very big screen tv. My house is kinda small, but it might be fun, everyone sitting on the floor watching the game on the big screen. Last week…

  • Fair weather hat

    OK, I’ll admit it, I’m not the worlds greatest football fan. And I’ve only lived in Seattle for 6 years. But I am so excited about the superbowl I can hardly sleep. Maybe that is the 16 latte’s I have a day, but maybe not. What is it about this sport, this event, that makes…

  • John in morning makes $120,000 a year

    According to this December article in the Seattle Weekly, KEXP‘s host John Richards makes an annual salary of $120,000. This is a public broadcasting station. College kids with no money are drooling on lecture hall desks city wide because they spent their latte money on a Pledge drive last year that raised $375,000. On top…

  • Too bad about the colts, bears

    I was really looking forward to playing the bears next week. Now we must play the dreaded panthers. They made the great Chicago defense look ordinary. It should be an exciting game. Jon Robinson of IGN was wrong on his predictions by 1-3, after his suprising 4-0 pick for wildcard weekend. Madden 2005 (the game)…

  • Colts Falling Apart

    They’ve only managed to put 3 points on the board. It’s almost the end of the 3rd quarter. It looks like they just didn’t come prepared, 3 weeks off, etc. Kei and I are going on a walk instead of watching them struggle against the dream stealers.

  • Seattle Win

    Seattle eeked out a victory today against my former favorite, the Washington Redskins. Shaun Alexander got out in the first quarter, after fumbling twice, due to a concussion. It was a pretty good game. We watched it at Harvey’s pizza, with copious amounts of cheesey pizza and icy cold schooners of Rainier, it was a…

  • Off to Portland

    I’m going down to Portland for anothe business trip. This is most likely going to be a biweekly trip. I was going to take the train, but the tracks are washed out by a mudslide. They are bussing people instead. So a coworker offered to drive us down (he was going anyway).

  • Sushi Storage

    The geek gourmands out there will appreciate this Sushi USB key. The question is, which sushi are you?

  • Tony

    Tony Seymour of Radio Cab 201 is a kindly gray haired fella who drives the big Dodge Sprinter cab. He dropped me off after my train arrived last Wednesday at the Embassy Suites. He gave me his card and told me to call him when I needed a ride back. Now that is great customer…

  • Meetings, bloody meetings

    So, it has been three days of solid meetings. I wish I could say that I was the willing victim, but instead I was the one dragging folks off to meetings so they wouldn’t be able to do any real work. In theory, we will be all the more productive because we have spent so…
