I've been extremely busy being eXtreme lately. Here are some pictures of a snow board trip I took to Tahoe with Brendan, Kurt, Lauren, and Marcy. I also rode 1000 miles from Raleigh, NC to New Orleans, LA and back. I tried to get my Iron Butt certification

I got back from my Jeeping and Biltmore escapades with Heather and emptied out my camera. Here's the result. Back in October I went to Matt and Candra's wedding. I wore a kippah (yarmulka) and did a reading. I bumbled a bit of the reading, but

I passed my CCIE Voice recertification. It wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. I did pretty well and spent more time stressing about it that I should have. It'll be nice to get the recert money. Brendan invited me down to the beach.

I went down to Team Powersports in Smithfield on Saturday morning. Justin let me test ride the 09 demo model they had there. First, everyone in the shop seemed very cool. Second, this bike is big and heavy, but once you get on it that all disappears. It handled like
