2007

I’m considering upgrading the monitors in my home office. I spend 3-4 days a week working from home, so they get a fair amount of use. As you may know, my exotic work surface is a hollow core door from Home Depot painted candy apple red, resting on two height adjustable saw horses. It’s the ...

I’ve been running Google Adsense for a while, and I ocassionally get an ad for LEGO or for a video game console. That’s not surprising, because I like those things and I may have mentioned them. Today I saw an ad for John McCain on the site. Perhaps there’s one now. I’m not sure how ...

Last weekend I passed through Woonsocket as we headed up to The Hub for Connie’s coming out party. As we cruised up Diamond Hill Road (the spine of East Woonsocket), I saw the dilapidated wreck that was once our afterschool and weekend evening haven: the sweaty den of iniquity known as Roller Kingdom.

So, Red Sonja, the temporary name for my new-to-me Honda VFR (see ‘She Arrives Tomorrow‘) showed up yesterday. (temporary until I get the rhino liner sprayed on). I pick up the plates today. And the weather for the next seven days? Thunderstorms! It has been heavenly of late in the dear old Hudson Valley. Truly ...

2007

Tomorrow, my new-to-me 1999 Honda VFR800 Interceptor arrives. I haven’t owned a bike since my 1997 Triumph Trophy 900 was impounded in the UK back in 2004 (that’s a long story). I’m very psyched. This is probably more bike than I need, but it’s likely the best all arounder out there. I looked at the ...
