  • Stingray!

    A shot at the underside.

  • Dodgeball! Laser Tag!

    I took Jaden and a couple of his friends over to the local Laser Tag place. It ended up being the four of us playing. I took a quick snapshot before I started shooting children with harmless beams of light. A bit earlier in the ady, I also got sucked into a game of Dodgeball…

  • QotD: First Celebrity Crush

    Who was your first celebrity crush?Submitted by Glory. While I remember my grandmother telling me that I always smiled when I saw a pretty girl on the TV, probably the ones that stuck with me the most were the models on The Price is Right, otherwise known as Barker’s Beauties. Whether or not that was…

  • Old Friends

    This old Simon and Garfunkel song popped into my mind. Maybe it hassomething to do with the fact I’ve spent the past few hours working on a sitethat represents something I used to spend a lot more time with. Evenwrote a couple of books about the product. And, ironically, as much asI try and move…

  • Coming Through in Waves

    Something happens. I get emotional in a negative way. My ability to try and think through it rationally leads down ratholes that simply reinforce my negative thinking more and more, making the negative feelings worse and worse. It’s like swimming upstream against a raging river. I eventually find my way back, but it can sometimes…

  • Not Cheating on Vox, Honest

    I am playing with a new “Tumblelog” run by the folks at tumblr, which I am running under phoneboy.info, as opposed to phoneboy.com, where I also run a blog. While blogging on Vox is pretty easy, blogging on Tumblr is almost easier. Why? Because there isn’t much expectation there. The blog posts are designed to…

  • A Few Nokia-Specific Posts

    I wrote a few posts on my other blog in the past 24 hours or so that I’d like to draw your attention to and get some feedback on, especially those of you on the Vox Mobile group. Feel free to comment either on the specific post or here. Either way, I’d love to get…

  • Mired in Music

    I go through phases where I ignore music and spent way too much time in my music collection. I am currently going through such a phase. In theory, I have a reason for it–I am rating my music and doing some general cleanup of stuff I have imported into iTunes. Doing stuff like “joining” CD…

  • Jaden? Dental Surgery? Easy.

    When Jaden came home from the surgery this morning, he was desperately trying not to fall asleep, though the drugs were definitely doing their thing. Now the drugs have mostly warn off and he’s more or less back to normal. He’s eaten, already asked mommy how much the tooth fairy will give him for three…

  • Jaden’s off to Dental Surgery in the Morning

    My oldest apparently has an extra tooth that, if it grows in, would mess up his teeth pretty bad. Tomorrow is the appointed day to have it removed, so he’s going in for surgery at a very early hour in the morning–something the wife isn’t looking forward to. Neither is Jaden. He is a bit…
