Things I Never Do December 13th, 2006 @ 7:59 am PST
A short list of things I never (or at least unbelievably rarely) do: … wear a shirt to bed … wear “tighty-whities” … use deodorant / anti-perspirant … use cologne … wear black socks … use after-shave … get car-sick / sea-sick; vomit … use shaving cream … use my blinker … drink milk / […]
The BMW Experiment December 12th, 2006 @ 11:00 am PST
After eighteen months I was forced to consider my foray into the lifestyle of luxury car ownership a failure. Just after Thanksgiving in 2004 I traded my red 1990 Toyota 4×4 for a black 2001 BMW 330 CCi. It was a gorgeous car. I really, really loved it. It was a sport model and a […]

Beer-Baked Sunflower Seeds December 8th, 2006 @ 9:38 am PST
About a week ago I caught one of my co-workers, a very nice guy named Tawan, eating these Zotes sunflower seeds during a management meeting. I have an abnormal addiction to seeds and nuts, so I was forced to steal some from him. He said he found them in a gas station convenience store and […]

Tags and Technorati December 7th, 2006 @ 10:39 am PST
A little while ago I cobbled together a tagging system here on the site. The tags appear at the bottom of each post and you can use them to find related content.
