If anyone can find the following two statistics for me, it would free me up to have a fun weekend without spending hours in front of the computer. –The approximate size (length, width, or...

…it’s just something that’s pretty damned cool. I’d been seeing referrals from Netvibes in my logs for a while. Then Gene mentioned it in his most recent post. So, I thought I’d check it...

For a long time, I struggled with whether advertising was right for this blog. I didn’t start it to make money and I’m not going to get rich off of it. However, as you’ll...

I’m tired, mired, an uninspired today. So far the only thing I have accomplished is…well, nothing. I have, however, read Boy Genius’ most recent rant. In a couple thousand words, he pretty much summed...

It was midnight when my phone rang. I had just put in a live straddle and was leaned back in my chair waiting for the action to get to me. For those not familiar...

I’ve spent the last couple of days wrappping my head around my few short hours in Italy. As I sat down to write up this part, I decided it was better suited for the...

The hard thing about being a visitor in Milan is that you are one of the people who isn’t perfect. Your eyes don’t have the perfect shape, your ass isn’t the type of thing...
