Light My Fire — no, put it out. Please.

Thursday, June 30th, 2005

It’s been a while since I decided to read any non-ficiton. Usually it’s biographical works on icons of the Entertainment industry (ie: Beatles or the Doors). Keeping with that trend, I decided to pick up Ray Manzarek’s Light My Fire, it’s a Doors autobiography I’ve been meanign to read for some time. [...]

Double Doggie D’OH!

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

The Dog is supposed to be six weeks old today. I haven’t seen a picture yet. I haven’t heard much of anything at all. I’m eager to hear and at the same time - I’m hearing nothing.
There was a dog I was told about by Jenna before I met Kerrie Kuper, this [...]

Oh that silly media!

Monday, June 27th, 2005

Anyone else a little sick of the media hype of Tom Cruise (and others) romance? Yeah, I figured the other 290+ Million Americans (and how many around the world?) just might be.
Matt Baldwin over at Defective Yeti flashes some humor over the latest People Magazine cover.

Ill Domain

Saturday, June 25th, 2005

It’s been a while since I was concerned about my health. It’s also been quite a while since I’ve overcome the last obstacle on my path of life. That being said, next week before I interview for a job, I’m supposed to talk to a doctor again and what the focus is on, [...]

Get a Job

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

Well, Johnny’s got a job interview on Tuesday and unless he breaks his hands between now and then, it should be a shoe-in position. I’m way overqualified for it but it’s a couple of bucks for a couple of hours of work. Better than sitting at home all day and waiting.

Skypoint and Tecocam

Saturday, June 18th, 2005

Being developement minded (and by developement, I don’t mean paving over wetlands to build Wal-Marts — Ugh) I like seeing all the projects that are finally going on in Downtown Tampa to further strengthen the urban core.
And though I can’t get downtown that often to keep tabs of things, I tend to hang out on [...]

Will wonders never cease?

Friday, June 17th, 2005

Well, Johnny wrote letters to the Clearwater City Councel along with Pam Iorio and Rick Baker (in seperate letters) discussing the possibility of a ferry link between cities….
Well? Gues what? Someone else thought that Tampa and St. Pete could be a great ferry route and are funding a study on it.
They are at [...]

Pinellas Rail’s Backwards Tale

Tuesday, June 14th, 2005

Well, well, well, the Pinellas County MPO gave their blessing to a slightly-poor-but-better-than-nothing Monorails sytem in Pinellas County. The seeds of Mass transit are iether sown or they are buried before their funeral has commenced.
I’m not a big fan of the seperate-but-equal mass transit planning of the Bay area, that’s part fo the reasonw [...]

Give’em Hell, Howard!

The Deanmeister Rides again!
For all of the willy-nilly Democrats who see Dean being vocal as a bad thing - just how many times have you thought along the same lines as what Dean is saying? He’s saying NOTHING that the base of the Democratic party hasn’t thought or believed - and if you [...]
