  • A Midsummer Night’s Blog Post

    I’ve been ridiculously busy since my last blog post. I’m starting to keep track of things by having my picture folders include the full date in the folder name. Otherwise I’d have no way to remember what order things came in. In chronological, photographical order here is what I’ve been up to: Marcy came down…

  • Busy lately – Camping, Jeeping, Motorcycling, Partying

    I haven’t posted in quite a while. That time has been filled with all sorts stuff. I’ve been riding my motorcycle around, going camping and Jeeping, Ward’s wedding, more motorcycling, and just hanging out with people around Raleigh and Chapel Hill. I guess I’ll start with links to albums in chronological order, just to document…

  • 2010 Kawasaki Concours 14

    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 a featherweight at slow city…

  • Snowboarding – Snowshoe, WV

    I spent the weekend snowboarding (or trying to) in Snowshoe, WV. It’s about a 6 hour drive from Raleigh. I went up with Pete and Kenneth. We randomly managed to run into Kurt and Lauren as well. I took a snowboarding class with Kurt. Lauren took a ski class. Kurt Lauren and I spent Sat…

  • Networkers / San Francisco: Day 1

    I rolled out of bed at 4:07 AM on Sunday morning. Waited for a severely late Pete, and just barely got on the plane before they closed the doors at 6:05AM. We got into SF around 1PM local time after taking the BART to Market Street. Little did we know that we were dropped straight…

  • Marco Melandri

    We went out to Morton’s for some serious steak last night. It was the first time I managed to spend over 100 dollars on a meal just for myself. We are sitting there and who walks in? Marco Melandri and most of his team. We weren’t sure it was him, but when the waitress confirmed…

  • Dani Pedrosa

    I wake up this morning at the Indianapolis Sheraton. I’m in the lobby hanging out waiting to leave for the race track. Dani Pedrosa just strolls on by through the lobby and walks out the front door. TFerg pointed and we looked. The guy is just as short as we expected. Awesome that he’s staying…

  • Back from the beach.

    I just got back from a week at the beach. It was pretty damn awesome and here are some pictures. Right now I’m unpacking from the beach and packing to head out to Indianapolis for the weekend. Woo MotoGP. It looks like weather is going to get both of my vacation trips. The tail end…

  • Sick Again

    Being sick can suck it. I’m beginning to think there is something wrong with me. I’ve been sick about 4 times so far this year. That’s just not right. What the hell am I doing wrong? Also, I’ve been watching It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia on http://hulu.com There is some relief in that. It makes…

  • A Change?

    I think I need a change of pace. I should do something different for a while. I’m thinking more Linux maybe? More teaching maybe? Maybe I should move somewhere else to see what that’s like. Any suggestions?
