No secret is the fact that I moved from Tucson to Chandler last summer. So far, the experience has been great. Roads are better maintained, there are streetlights, and most of the neighborhoods are well planned, and laid out with plenty of green space. My wife and I compare it to “Sunnyvale” where no dangerous critters are allowed. Cool so far. However, there is a problem. It appears...
I have been fortunate in my travels. I have close to 2 million miles of travel, and have spent time in a lot of countries, and have had relatively few incidents of food-borne illness. I have eaten street food in Taiwan, had unrecognizable parts of the chicken in China, eaten what probably was a pet in Korea, all without incident. However, it hasn’t been a perfect record.

Following up on my earlier post about how I got into greyhounds, here is a video of the gang playing and bebopping around our courtyard. Lots of fun was had by all.
I have always been a dog person. Some people are cat people (up to the “crazy cat lady”), some are dog people, and some people shouldn’t do pets at all. Currently, I have Greyhounds.

I learned a lot about microcomputers there, and soon saved my paper route money to buy my own (not an Apple, way too expensive, I went the Atari route – better games). I learned a lot about that system, I learned to program in basic, and rudimentary assembly...
A week and a half ago, my Wife bought gas at a Quick Trip in Tucson. Apparently, some shitball skimmer had jacked the pump she used, and lifted her credit card information. We came back from a short holiday in San Diego, checked out bank account, and found some sleazeball had used Western Union to wire $969 our of our checking account. Fuck. Call the bank, put a hold on the charge (it went...
Well, I have been an on and off user of posterous for a few years. Probably less than 100 posts, some insightful, some silly. I guess they will fit here.
Tee hee
Holy cow. I found this again by searching my userid.
I created my own site, hosted, and moved from WP to Joomla. I might bring this back, since it is nice to have another option.
