Evan: future weatherman
I’m telling you, he has this stuff down.
Okay, I see something on the radar here…

Well, they are both anthropomorphic turtles…
Okay, so they’re both based on turtles. But somehow I think it’s gonna be a while before Evan’s toy collection and mine are anywhere near a point where integration of our collections is possible.
Unless someone can figure out a way to retcon Wonder Pets into Doctor Who mythology, that is.… Read more

Feeding Mr. Evan
Wednesday, I retrieved Evan from day care in the middle of what seemed like a monsoon. Before I went to get him, I looked for the umbrella that I thought I kept in the car…I guess it’s been relocated. Anyway, we both got thoroughly soaked. We went to the store and stopped to grab food on the way home. We both looked like we’d showered in our clothes. (By the way, Evan thought that sitting in a shopping basket as his daddy raced it toward the car in the middle of the downpour was just the best thing ever. 😆 )
Hold off on taking that picture, dad. I’m eating.
Okay. Here’s the prettiest face you’re going to get out of me if you insist on taking our picture while I eat. Nom nom nom.
Dad…um…we’re done here, right? Can I eat this in peace now?
In related news, it appears that the same storm may have fried my wireless router. That’s a bit of a biggie since I have a lot of stuff networked between machines. Hadn’t really budgeted for a replacement, so…..grrrrr. Incidentally, this is the first time I’ve lost any gear to lightning since the Apple II days.… Read more

Question mark
Ahhh dammit. I’ve wanted one of these for years – a question mark umbrella. I doubt that many people who know me will really have to “question” why. Pity it’s so expensive.
C’mon, tax refund…… Read more

Hey Jupiter, nothing’s been the same
Okay, I’m a big space exploration fan, right? I eat that stuff up. But even I question this showing up as the top story on CNN this morning. I refreshed a few times to make sure it wasn’t a random thing, and sure enough, it was hardwired as the top story. I love space stuff, guys, but this is serious sidebar material with all that’s going on on this planet.
Besides, before we go organizing a benefit concert to save the Great Red Spot, anyone who’s seen or read 2010 should know what’s really going on here. 😉… Read more

The seven habits of highly ineffective product recommendation algorithms
You know, I have nothing against ABBA or musicals based on the works thereof. But the e-mail I got from Amazon UK this morning just makes no sense. See if you can follow the logic here:
We recommend: Mamma Mia! [DVD] [2008]
DVD ~ Meryl Streep
RRP: £21.99
Price: £7.98
You Save: £14.01 (64%)Recommended because you purchased or rated:
* Doctor Who – The Mark Of The Rani [DVD] [1985]
* Doctor Who – The Claws Of Axos [DVD] [1971]
* Doctor Who – Vengeance on Varos [DVD] [1963]
I have a feeling that only the broadest connection possible applies here: you bought shiny round things from us a few years ago, therefore you simply must be interested in this shiny round thing, because everyone who likes shiny round things at all likes this particular shiny round thing. Trust us. We’ve asked them. All of them.
I know marketing is an inexact science, but come on, the logic on this one is grope-in-the-dark voodoo, people. 😆 … Read more
