NURSE!?! I can’t use this laminated composite crap! Get me some real wood… oak, ash, hickory. Hell, I’ll even take pine or maple. Just get it here STAT!
As it happens, my wife has suffered through the preliminary, primary, and waning stages of illness, and I’m still cold free. My daughter has seen all manner of matter treat her mouth like a two-way street, but I…
My wife is convinced that we are cursed. Every year, at this time, the Kauffman Household (v 2.2.2) passes around a nasty bug. Or so she says, but more on that later. Last night my daughter got jiggy with a little retroperistalsis, and tonight my wife is playing a little catch-up.
I should of had a V8! That, or I should have stayed in a hotel this week; for it is not a question of IF I’ll…
I’ve got nothing better to do than to catalog my Macs, so here we go. (I’m a little bored.)

“You. You! You’re good!”
Mind you, he’s never seen the movie, and the closest thing he has to an Italian American acquaintance is his German/Irish/English/Swiss/American father who does the occasional impression to entertain the…
Do you think it’s possible for laptop computers to be bad for you? I don’t mean bad for your budget or bad for your marriage… I mean bad for your health.
Lately I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night, an intense dream just beyond recollection, suddenly in no mood for sleep. I keep my PowerBook on a table by the bed, so the internet is less than an arm’s…
I was searching through the blog, looking to see if I’d ever posted an entry about limes, when I came across this one. If you’d rather read about limes, keep the faith. I’m still considering it. (Orange you glad?)
