Monday, February 17th, 2003 · 1 Comment

OK, so I’m finally getting around to uploading some photos of the new apartment after just more than two weeks of living here. But hey, it’s the first holiday since we’ve lived here and the DSL is now in full effect, so why the heck not? Most of these pictures are from the beginning of […]

SF Treasure Hunt

Sunday, February 16th, 2003 · Comments Off on SF Treasure Hunt

Yesterday was an exhausting day, as Jen, Jess, Ben, and I participated in the Chinese New Year’s SF Treasure Hunt, a 4.5-hour journey around San Francisco solving complex riddles — while attempting to navigate around the parade route.

Saturday, February 15th, 2003 · 1 Comment

I think Jen had a little too much fun with Photoshop yesterday: She created a not-so-flattering version of one of one of the photos from our Baker Beach photo shoot (a year ago yesterday, coincidentally enough!): Original Uh oh Watercolor (this one is actually pretty cool)

Friday, February 14th, 2003 · Comments Off on Ode to Achieva

Last Saturday Jen donated her 1994 Oldsmobile Achieva to the American Lung Association. It had more than 104,000 miles on it and the interior lights would not turn off.

Friday, February 14th, 2003 · Comments Off on Here Kitty, Kitty

I received these hilarious photos in an email yesterday. They crack me the hell up. There was this long story about how the cat ended up this way, but I think that’s beside the point so I’m not going to post the story here. Just enjoy the photos in all their glory: Mad cat 1 […]

Here’s Colin Powell’s indisputable proof about the very clear connection between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein: Powell Offers Proof of Saddam-Osama Link Now it makes perfect sense why the “War on Terror” has diverted to the hell-bent desire to attack Iraq.

Happy Valentine’s Day (My Arse)

Friday, February 14th, 2003 · 1 Comment

I’ve never really been one to get all gushy and romantic and celebrate the sorry excuse for making money between other holidays: Valentine’s Day. Luckily, my fiancee feels the same way. Ergo, it is fitting that tonight we are going to see Peter Jackson’s Brain Dead, which is part of the SF Indiefest 2003. Yes, […]
