Hell’s Half Acre

After last night, I don’t think I’ll ever complain about drunk Canadians. To be perfectly honest, the DC’s and DA’s have been really quiet and calm this winter. Both Jamie and I have been pleasantly surprised by the lack of noise and partay. There is usually a campfire and drinking but the [...]

Mom and Dad left this morning headed for the Bay Area. Our plans change like the wind. We had planned to go back to the Bay Area until after the New Year, then changed that to go to El Requeson until Christmas (then back to the Bay Area), then to go to the [...]

Jamie got his PSA results and he’s good at a 2.0. From here we’re looking to do a colonoscopy. We’re researching virtual vs. conventional as the virtual (CT + digital imaging) seems to yield better results. We’ll let you know.

I can’t believe that Mom and Dad haven’t posted about the Baja 1000 yet and Jesse specifically asked me not to post yet, because Mom took an amazing photo of the boys with a rider, but I’ve never been one to follow orders.
This past week, the camp has been in quite a state [...]

That is Ellen’s new favorite phrase. Makes sense, if you can be “I am” and you are not, you certainly *could* be “I amn’t”. This is pretty much going to be a yoga post, so go ahead and skip over it. I think I’m going to have to set up a seperate [...]

Ok, I took out the freaking $5 software button. If you’re interested, here it is

.
When I feel like beating my head against the wall some more, I’ll work more on that theme. I really like it - both the layout and the way the CSS and PHP is designed. [...]
