Rest In Peace Bauer
Today after more than 13 years we had to say goodbye to the 3rd of the original 3blackdogs. Skansen's JA Bauer was a big, lovable brute that never seemed to grow up. He was always the low man on the totem pole but took it all in stride. A bit goofy, he often...

Great New Email Client
And then there was Postbox. I don't usually plug software on this blog but I have to make an exception for Postbox. I switched from Outlook several months ago and I love this alternative written by some of the key developers from Mozilla and Thunderbird who have...

It Didn’t Explode!
It's the time of year to burn the fields in preparation for the new hay season. I have a bit of pyromania in my blood so I always look forward to this task. Armed with my LP tank and weed burner attachment I set out burning the field south of the house. All went...
An Early Birthday Present

Zoo Lights
Sandi and I spent the weekend in Denver finalizing the NCT auction. We had great food. One night at Mizuna and one at McCormicks. The Oxford Hotel got us complimentary tickets to Zoo Lights and provided Town Car transportation. Not only were the light displays...
Christmas Tree Trimming
Sandi and I got the tree up this afternoon. We skipped a few years recently and it was a lot of fun unwrapping ornaments we haven't seen in a while. Here are some pics, all from the iPhone:

We’re Official Apple Fanbois (sorta)
Sandi was the lucky recipient of an Apple MacBook Air for Christmas and she loves it. I have had my MacBook Pro for almost a year and I too really like OS-X and the laptop design. In addition we both have iPhones and we're pretty much entrenched...
