The alarm sounded at 5:30 this morning. But I think that was about the 20th time I had awaken since going to bed at 11:30 the night before. I think my mind had been active all night. I feel… tired. But ready to go. Our plane leaves at 8, so we’re heading out in a…
This Time Tomorrow…
So, it’s really here. For months—maybe even years?—we’ve waited for this day, this trip. We’re packing stuff up now, getting the house ready to leave. The kids are ready for their vacation, too. A whole 8 days at Grandma & Grandpa’s!! And for us? Eight beautiful days at a resort on the Pacific Ocean near…
100 Times Faster Than WiFi?
Check this out! CNet is reporting that IBM and MediaTek are working on chips that will wirelessly transmit data more than 100 times faster than wi-fi! Up to 2.5 gigabits/second?!? (Compared to 11 to 54 megabits/second of wi-fi.) You could transfer a 10GB file in seconds. Wirelessly. They hope to have something out on the…
Just Her Time?
I was browsing a local news site, and read this article. Very sad. But once I got to the end of it, and noticed detail that almost seemed glanced over, I concluded that perhaps it was just her time?
The Goal of Parenting
Earlier this week I was thinking about being a parent. (A parent, not “apparent”…) I think I was processing some issues we’re working on with the kids. Maybe I still had some lingering thoughts in my head from a conversation we had with our friends last Sunday about the ups and downs of parenting. Whatever…
(The Great) Chris Farley and Paul McCartney
Was just remembering this Saturday Night sketch today, and found it (of course) on YouTube. Classic, CLASSIC video. Was laughing as loud as I have ever laughed I think when I saw it again. :-) Enjoy!
Willow Creek Repents?
I saw a quick post by a friend today linking to an article about Willow Creek perhaps “repenting” of it’s church/business model? I don’t think it’s that groundbreaking, as it seems WCCC is just going in a different “business” direction, but it’s still pretty interesting to see them find that the super elaborate programs aren’t…
10.18.97
I don’t have time today to write what I wish I could write about this day. Maybe I will have more time when we are on vacation at the end of the month? Regardless, I did not want to let the day pass without mentioning it here at GregsHead.net. I am a lot of things……
Candidate Calculator
I found this site last night, and thought it was interesting… I actually care very little about politics because I really just don’t like government very much at all anyway. I know it’s idealistic, but I definitely have Libertarian leanings, where each person is responsible for themselves, and the people around them. I don’t like…
The Bleacher Report
I have been fascinated with a new website I found via an application on Facebook. It’s called The Bleacher Report, and the idea is that it’s an open source sports page. Anyone can create an account and contribute, and anyone can modify existing articles. These modifications can be just correcting grammar, spelling, typos, or even…
