Hopefully I can ressurect it once life gets unhectic in a few weeks. But now I’m trying to cut back on how much I eat. I realized that I’m never going to stop eating bad food. I just love food ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=37 I just watched the pilot of flight 292 make a once in a life time perfect landing. Kudos to the pilot. He deserves a huge bonus for that landing. http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=36 I’ve started going to the gym again. I’ve managed to go every weeknight (except one) for almost a week now. I’m trying to work my way up on the amount of time I can spend walking. Part of it is pain and tiredness. That will disappear ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=35 My wife woke me up at 5:30 this morning saying, “I smell smoke! Ryan! Get up. I smell smoke!” I stumbled out of bed and could smell smoke. A quick tour of the house told me that likely it was not our house. I opened the ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=34 So we joined a gym last Wednesday (before Thanksgiving). The gym is really nice. New equipment, flat screen TVs everywhere.

But I draw ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=31 Well, we had a fun time passing out candy to the kiddies. This year I went a little overboard and put up a huge web in our front yard. It took me about 12 hours over a week to finish the web. But it really came alive ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=29 Wednesday I came home and sat down at my computer. The monitor comes on. Warms up. The image appears… and is screwed up. Parts of the horizontal range are going nuts. Like it can’t control the beam. I try lots of things to make ... http://obelisk.net/blog/index.php?p=28 Finally finished my changes and put the current stuff into production.
