I took the pictures this year for the Computer Mine’s annual Christmas Card. I did not edit or select the pictures for the actual card, so these pictures will differ from the card. Here are a few pictures of my fellow miners… To see more such images follow the link… Read More »Happy Holidays from the Computer Mine

I found a few prints tucked away in the box of slides, so I thought I would get them scanned before putting that box of slides away. I believe this picture was taken by Lowell’s grandpa Byron Davis Sr.
I’ve often heard that the saddest thing in the world is unrequited love. Unsolicited love on the other hand… I’ve never been a Christmas card person. My thoughts on cards is that when somebody sends you a card, what they are really saying (with apologies to Mitch Hedberg) is: “here,… Read More »Looking Back, Looking Ahead

I was dreadfully unprepared for this year’s Halloween. Including not buying pumpkins and candy until Saturday morning, not running firmware updates on my Blu-Ray player until Saturday night and not doing any decorating at all.

In addition to being Lowell’s birthday, Saturday, January 10, 2009 was Symposium.

It is a New Year and soon enough, it will be too cold to go outside and you will need to do more while you are inside than just watching the Cyclones play basketball. May I suggest reading. In fact, while I’m suggesting I’m going to suggest a few websites… Read More »Reading for a New Year
