The Wait is Over: Apple PowerBook 520C

This is pretty much the coolest thing ever: A fully functional vintage 1994 Apple Powerbook 520C. And it’s mine. All mine! I have always loved laptops. When I was a kid I’d force my parents to take me to the bookstore where I would buy a copy of “Computer Shopper.” One day in the early… Continue reading »

Miscellaneous Stuffery.

1. I’ve been doing a fair amount of blogging lately but most of my recent posts are on www.utahcorvette.com. I’ve spent quite a bit of time on my hobby these past few months and I’m sad that the nice weather is on its way out.  I need a good winter hobby… Maybe I’ll pull out my… Continue reading »

“Real” Internet.

Know what I hate? Lots of stuff. But do you know what I really hate? Slow Internet. The WWW is a fast place now and bandwidth speed is critical for maximum enjoyment. For the last five or so years we’ve used Qwest DSL. Initially it was fine, but with a download speed off 1.5mbps time… Continue reading »

Healthcare Reform – August 2011

With regards to weight loss things are going really well. As I write this I’m currently south of 220 and I actually weigh less than when I got married. I’m wearing XL shirts again, my shorts have a 36″ waist and I fit perfectly into my old mission suit. Plus I can run further and faster than ever before. This journey hasn’t been quick… Continue reading »

July Goings Ons… ings.

I don’t generally blog about family stuff (it’s on Fran’s blog, remember?) but I did a couple of fun things with the family this month that I thought posterity would be interested in so I have included them. Fourth of July Weekend Each year we go to BYU campus and sit and watch the fireworks. We’ve gone… Continue reading »

Zombies Ate My Brains… Sort Of.

Anyone else play Plants Vs. Zombines on the iPhone? It’s incredibly addicting!  I love tower defense games to begin with but Popcap’s version has so many extra elements and such polished gameplay that it outshines it’s rivals. If you haven’t tried it yet I’d suggest you get a copy (it’s only $2.99 in the app store). For… Continue reading »

A New Exercise Concept

I really enjoy running. Sometimes it almost feels like I’m floating along and as the runner’s high washes over me everything seems perfect. But some days each step feel like an impossible trek through shin pain and mental exhaustion. I decided that if I was going to keep up my rigorous exercise campaign I needed some variety. After… Continue reading »

Mechanical Watchery

Mechanical watches are cool.  These fascinating little devices keep time (or attempt to keep it) with no battery. Instead they have a spring that gets wound by either manually turning the crown or by movement of the wearer. Some of the mechanical watches out there have an exhibition feature. This feature allows part of the… Continue reading »

Running Away From My Problems.

May 9th has come and gone, so I thought I’d post a quick update on my progress. First the bad news: I didn’t reach my weight loss goal- I’m currently at 244. Fun fact: 244 moves me from “obese” to “overweight” on the BMI! Now the good news: The changes I have made in my… Continue reading »

Hong Kong Teahouse

I think I’ve eaten at every Chinese, Thai and Sushi restaurant in Utah Valley. When Fran announced that she wanted roast duck and that we had to go to Salt Lake to get it I was delighted. Nothing like expanding one’s culinary horizons. Her quest took us to the  Hong Kong Tea House in downtown Salt Lake. I… Continue reading »
