Rome is the best show on TV. That is all.
I live in Gig Harbor, Washington with my beautiful wife, Rachael and our two kids; Kieran and Allison. I work as an IT Manager for these guys.
I'm a linux and PHP guy. In my spare time, I like to play with my kids, drink beer, listen to music, snowboard, pole vault(!), and come up with fabulous ideas that never get enough attention.
All complaints and flames should be directed to the nearest wall. thank you. Now back to your regularly scheduled blog.....

Super Bowl Champs!
My Colts finally did it. About time....
So what was your favorite commercial?
Any one else notice Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht in the Go Daddy commercial? If you don't know who they are, don't worry about it.....
From Grandpa Horoho, via email....
Mama Bear and Papa Bear were getting a divorce. The judge ask Baby Bear
if he wanted to live with Papa Bear? Baby Bear says, "Oh no, he beats
me." Well do you want to live with Mama Bear? Baby Bear says, "Oh, no
she beats me too". The judge asks, " well who do you want to live with?"
I want to live with the Chicago Bears they don't beat anyone.

Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady, after living a long full life passed away.
When he got to heaven, God was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded Patriots flag in the window.
"This house is yours for eternity, Tom," said God. "This is very special; not everyone gets their own house up here."
Tom felt special, indeed, as he walked up to the front porch of his house, he noticed another house down on the corner.
It was a 3-story mansion with a Blue & White sidewalk, a 50 foot tall flag pole with an enormous Colts logo flag, and every window was draped with Indianapolis Colts curtains.
Tom looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I hold many NFL records, won numerous Super-Bowls and I even was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame."
God said "So what's your point Tom?"
"Well, why does Peyton Manning get a better house than me?"
God chuckled, and said "Tom, that's not Peyton's house, it's mine."
GO COLTS!!!!
Windows Vista Launches Today....
yawn.
Why someone would shell out $99 - $250 for some eye candy and other features that OSX and Linux already have is beyond me.
Thanks, but no thanks. I'll stick with what I've got....
I am IRON MAN......

The great blackout of 2006
well, we survived it and there are still some folks without power up here. We got ours back last night (the 18th), but the house was still an icebox until this morning. Rach and Kieran headed off to England on Sunday, so they only had to endure 3 days of it.
For those who don't know, we had a really strong windstorm up here on Thursday night. 30-50mph sustained winds with 70mph gusts in some places. Our little area of Washington is littered with trees that have a tendency to fall over in high winds and knock out powerlines.
Our power went out that night at about 9pm and stayed out until last night, making for a cold few days since our heaters are electric. we stayed one night, then elected to find alternate sleeping arrangements the next couple days. I think i'm going to buy a generator for the next big one that hits....
On this day in history.....
....in 1975, Jeremy Ashcraft was born at 4:25 AM in Kokomo, Indiana.
(for those not playing at home, that means today is my 3rd 29th birthday. A pat on the back to the first person who can guess how old I am)
So, um, yeah.....so go buy me some stuff already...;)
New Feature
You'll notice that my all my diggs from digg now appear inline with my blog entries. This is a sort of new "lazy" blogging that i'll be doing from now on...
I'm back from Florida with the rest of the fam getting back on Sunday. Lots of pics and video to share once things settle down.
