With two fur children to take care of for years to come, this online vet resource could come in quite handy.

I Love Solving Problems
Monday, September 30th, 2002 · 3 Comments
I love solving problems. That’s a big part of why I love technology so much. I just solved a challenging PHP/MySQL problem that I’ve been working on since last week. Now I have a truly functional (yet quite simple) CMS for my Web site — with good database design. There’s a main table for content […]

Weekend Update
Sunday, September 29th, 2002 · Comments Off on Weekend Update
It’s been a really fun weekend so far. It feels like it’s been longer than a couple days. Friday night after work (after dropping off Happy D. at Planet Canine), Jen, Stella, and I headed to Sacramento to meet up with James and Tracy for a night out. We dropped off Stella at Nana’s house […]

Wine Making in Montclair
Friday, September 27th, 2002 · Comments Off on Wine Making in Montclair
Last night after work I headed over to beautiful and green Montclair to meet up with Jen at her coworker Jane’s place to help out with some winemaking. It was our first foray into the world of vinting — and good practice for running the vineyard that we’ll some day own. We helped out with […]

The TI Living Room Carpet Saga
Thursday, September 26th, 2002 · Comments Off on The TI Living Room Carpet Saga
After much debate yesterday with the incompetent “Reggie” of Treasure Island’s The Villages — and everything short of being accused of lying — I finally managed to get the fool to agree to give us back the $416.99 they tried to charge us to replace the living room carpet. He acted like he was doing […]

Outing at Pac Bell Park
Wednesday, September 25th, 2002 · Comments Off on Outing at Pac Bell Park
The Giants game last night with Dad was a lot of fun. The Giants kicked some serious ass. When we left in the 7th inning, they were up 6-3. By the time we were pulling onto my street back in Larkspur, they had extended the lead to 12-3. Go Giants! I also indulged in a […]

Duck Hunter
Tuesday, September 24th, 2002 · Comments Off on Duck Hunter
This morning Happy Dingo and I stopped at J.R. Muggs. When I walked in behind a group of men clad in army camo rags, I suspected they were more likely on their way to hunting ducks (is it duck season?) than on a mission of the U.S. government. My suspicion was confirmed when I overheard […]

Weekend Roundup
Monday, September 23rd, 2002 · Comments Off on Weekend Roundup
This weekend was a lot of fun. Friday evening I picked up Jen (who got the afternoon off and had spent several hours drinking with coworkers already) and then Enoch from Transbay, and we all headed off to the Lower Haight for a cocktail party at Kat’s beautiful flat. I never cease to be amazed […]

TV Archives of 9/11
Friday, September 20th, 2002 · Comments Off on TV Archives of 9/11
The TV archive that Alexa (Jen’s former employer) put together to preserve the historical news coverage on and following September 11 is pretty amazing. I haven’t even looked at any of the footage yet, but the concept is really cool. I came across the link to that while reading this interview with Brewster Kahle about […]

Whirlwind Dog Days
Friday, September 20th, 2002 · Comments Off on Whirlwind Dog Days
It’s been a whirlwind couple days with Happy Dingo (hard for it not to be). Yesterday evening Jen kept insisting that she smelled shit as we sat in the living room watching TV. She does this funny thing where she smells the heads of the dogs to determine if they’ve rolled in shit (which Stella […]
