I have a problem.

I love this blog.
 
Well, that isn’t a problem, is it? I don’t think so.
My true/real problem is that only a handful of people read this blog on a regular basis. Most only read when I tell them to, or if they read something about it in my AIM away message, or so I believe. (No [...]

I graduated college with a Bachelor’s of Science.
I had 5 successful co-op quarters with 3 different companies.
I have 2 jobs, one dealing with my major.

However, after watching the video below, all of that makes me look like I have [...]

~34.38

Interesting number, huh? It could represent so much: average points per basketball game, someone’s age, how much money you have in the bank, percentage of something, or a grade on a test.
However, that is not what it symbolizes at all. It represents, in days, how long I have talked on only my third cell phone: [...]

When do you turn on your headlights?

I had thought this was a simple question, a no brainer, a gimme, but America, or more specifically Ohio, is proving me quite wrong. When I was in driver’s ed, I was told that anytime you turned on the windshield wipers, you should turn on your headlights. Granted, I wasn’t in driver’s ed that long [...]

What do you think of the new digs?

I have been saying that this blog needed some sprucing up for awhile now. However, I never actually acted on that thought no matter how many times it crossed my mind. Well, tonight I did thanks to a very good article at Smashing Magazine entitled 100 Excellent Free WordPress themes.
To be honest, way back, I [...]

I want to rant.

Oh my god
Wait and see
What will soon become of me
Frozen heart and screaming wheels
Does that screaming come from me
Take me back
Just before I was spinning.
Take me back
Its amazing what a minute can do.
Take me back
Just before I was spinning…

“Never forget.”

I figured with today being the 6th Anniversary of 9/11, I should take a photo of something “American.” I headed to a local city hall, and photographed the flag at half mast, with the building in the background. I only took a few photographs, because connected to this city hall is a fire station/police department, [...]

This is me in a nutshell.

I just went from drinking chocolate milk to a beer and might return to the milk after I finish the beer…

My office is great inspiration.

So far I have taken 10 of my A Photo A Day’s at my office…er, well, outside my office. Some are of geese/goslings, others of trees, and now the latest one, which will be #11, is of stones/pebbles/rocks.
I was forced to park somewhat far away this morning, as something was going on at CSU. Therefore, [...]

I <3 Squirrels. (+ June’s Second Best)

The amazing thing about the A Photo A Day process, is that no matter the day, or my thoughts, I always somehow find a subject to photograph. I am either lucky and the subject comes to me, or I think and I go to the subject.
Today, the subject, squirrels, came to me at my office. [...]

Silly, Quick Story Time And Photo Time

Let me bore you for two minutes, and then you will be able to view today’s A Photo A Day. On my way home from work this evening, as usual, there was traffic. Either to the right or left of me was a Nissan Xterra, and we both were trying to get around cars who [...]

All growed up?

No, no, I am not talking about the Rugrats show, I am talking about the geese/goslings at my office. It takes humans years to grow to our final size. Some are short, some are tall, but no matter what, it takes more than a few weeks for us to grow up. On the other hand, [...]
