Welcome...

7.1.08

According to this month's (June) web statistics, I had over 26,000 hits (new record)! What did I do to deserve that??? Furthermore, the following web sites (outside of Google) feature my tutorials (or links to them) on their sites:

Well, I thought it was interesting anyway. ;p


I've added a QuickTime video of the would-be tornado.Sorry the audio was so blown out that I disabled it to save your speakers.

I've updated the old pages from my trip to LA on 7/4/06. Enjoy! These pages are no longer in a flash format and benefit from the good design of CSS. Woo!

6.28.08

I've returned from a visit with my family back home in Indiana. Quite the trip I must say. Emotional highs and lows, strong thunderstorms (miss those out here in Cali), playing with my neice and nephew, and a ton of pictures.
Instead of creating one huge gallery, I've decided to split them up into six smaller presentations. Enjoy!

Now if I can only get over this damn chest cold. Boo! I'm missing out on a century ride today. :(

I have successful completed my second metric century ride. The Foothill Century was fun but nearly as technicall as the Grizzly Peak Century. But this time, it wasn't enough to just ride 61 miles. So, I made the insane decision to ride to and from the event adding another 33 miles to the total distance ridden today.

Completed my first metric century ride, ever! Perhaps I should have picked an easier one to start with but the bear didn't get me at the Grizzly Peak Century.

Here are a few pictures of the Madagascar2 Halfway Celebration.

And then there was the Rebuilding Together San Franciso Day event where we had 46 volunteers from PDI and other companies pitch in to rebuild Daniel Webster Elementary School. Feels good to do something nice for the community (even if you don't live in that 'hood).

Did ya ever have one of those days were you just felt like this:

Pissed off shark

Got a little inspired over the weekend and created a little Photoshop painting based on a photograph of my chilling on a Lazy Sunday Morning.

3.24.08

Dispite being ill today, I still managed to post these pictures from hiking Portola Valley last weekend. With great weather, comes great responsibility to hike, bike, and take it all in!

1.21.08

Started redesigning the site. What do ya think? Mmmm CSS tastes great with blue BGs....

After much soul searching (and poking around various CSS sites), I've made the leap to the worldful world of CSS formatted pages. I suppose next you'll want me to throw in some PHP or Ajax or maybe even a wiki.... Where will the madness end?!?!


11.1.07

Get enough candy last night trick or treating? I did but I didn't have nightmares because I ate too much. The nightmares was due to all the scary halloween costumes from this year's PDI Halloween events.

Answer: Forever and a day. Or at least a few months.
Question: When was the last time I updated this page?

My inner child-geek found the Lego Digital Designer application and spent the entire afternoon noodling around with an original design I use to build again and again. Ah! To feel young again! Check out my model I loving call the X-1 Star Fighter and instructions to build it!

This 3D application lets you play with the bricks, view it, generate instructions, and make sound de-effects as your are tooling around with it in the preview mode. Now if I can figure out how to import these 3D files into Maya....

Oh, I should mention that I lost 13 pounds thanks to cycling, kick boxing, and boxing conditioning over the past two months. You probably don't care but I'm proud.


If you are into zombies and you're a pro web surfer (isn't there a proper name for that?), you'll love this parady of a parady!
