Was on a walk with the kids today and found a tree with these leaves… Bonus points to the first one who can tell me what kind of tree it is!

The Eastern Conference Finals began this afternoon. We finished watching the game at around 9:45pm (tape-delayed by us, due to some other plans for this day). And I was just in shock. Seriously. This is nuts. Buffalo has never won a championship. Well, I take that back… the Buffalo Bandits won the NLL championship their…

I know, you probably think I’m crazy. But I actually considered buying a plane ticket to go down to NYC today just to be there for the opening of the biggest and first 24-hour Apple Store on the planet. I mean, come on… it’s in my own state… But, alas, the funds (and other obligations)…

I was using our iPhoto app a bunch today, and I noticed that we have some really nice photos in there. I also noticed that it has been a while since I shared any photos here, so as I was about to pick some to post here, I realized that I could just use iWeb…

Each ships with the built-in iSight camera for video conferences, iLife 06, FrontRow and remote. Fantastic computers, starting at $1099. I…

It’s official. The first of two books that I am hoping to publish this month is to the printer. I am going to do this one the same as last time. Print on demand. I will be getting 25 copies, will maybe order another 25 or so, but then all the rest I will sell…

I have just watched the most appalling thing I have ever seen. That was not written for “shock factor”. I believe it’s true. I have seen some pretty amazing movies over the years, that depict in vivid, gut-wrenching detail the failures of people through the ages. Failures, and heroics. Some that I have commented on…

Today I noticed again how much my four and two year olds love themselves. 🙂 It’s not narcissistic, or selfish. It’s not bad at all. They genuinely think that they are cool! My 4-yr old will pray for everyone in the family, saying how he loves them all, and then he’ll finish with himself. “And…
