I haven’t been to a movie in a while but got the chance this past week. It was between Da Vinci Code and MI3. I had read the book quite a while a go but Kathy had not. My memory of the book was that it was quite convoluted and a little preachy yet still [...]

Xander Playing the Piano
Here is a video of Xander playing the piano. Download Link Sorry about the lighting. I learned that one shouldn’t have the windows and blinds open behind the subject while shooting a video. I’ll try and do better next time. Notice Mitchell in the video. What’s he doing? Well, the piano bench has a crank [...]
What is it with Zillow?
Have you gone to Zillow? It’s a site that allows you to enter an address (any address in the US) and it will give you real estate data on it. Specifically, it will tell you what the house is worth and what it’s property taxes are and detail on what the house is (square foot, [...]

Book Review – Sins of the Night by Sherrilyn Kenyon
This book was an interesting one in the series by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Her series is about Dark Hunters who are created out of vengeance when they die by the Greek Goddess Artemis. They were really only created though to have a hold over another being, Acheron who out of compassion leads them in their mission [...]
Look up…
I’m always looking at various web posts that make suggestions about how to improve one’s blog. I came across a post (which I’ve lost the link to – sorry!) which suggested that an About Page should not be about the creator of the blog but instead should be about the blog itself and give the [...]
The RIAA is insane
I came across this link about the four major music labels filing a suit against XM radio over at Thomas Hawk. Now the thing about the post (he gets the information from the EFF) is that it points out how out of control and insane the music industry and RIAA are (and by connection, anyone [...]
Listen to Mitchell and Xander

Book Review – Night Pleaasures by Sherrilyn Kenyon
This was kind of an interesting twist on the whole romance novel with creatures of the night thing going on. The premise was that the gods of myth (greek myth) did a whole bunch of things. For instance, a whole group a humans worshiped Apollo but somehow they pissed him off so he cursed them [...]
Age has hit me
I had an eye exam today. I’ve had them every 5-7 years I guess. I’m a fortunate person in that I’ve never needed glasses or contact lenses. I had a feeling this exam would be different though because reading small things has been getting harder and my night vision has been getting worse. Well, my [...]
Blanket Chest
I’ve finished all my glue ups and put some pictures in the Photo Gallery. Check them out. My next step is to find some wood (in my own stash or go get some) for drawer sides and one bottom shelf that’s an interior component that doesn’t get seen. These pieces don’t need to be cherry [...]

Guess What?
I haven’t been woodworking in probably 6 months or more. Lots of reasons like lack of focus, will or even lots of distractions (volunteering at the kids school, blogging, rss reading, nearly anything else). Anyway, after the woodworking show I finally got the urge again and have been in my shop 4 days in a [...]
