  • Rattle snakes are real!

    Rattle snake - not rubber

    Pictures of a 13 year old’s recovery from a rattle snake bite (not lunch safe – gross) are circulating the Internet.

    On July 21, 2002, just after my 13th birthday, I was bitten by a Western Diamondback rattlesnake. I was located on a trail in a hiking area near Yosemite National Park, California. The bite occurred when I was sitting on a small boulder at a distance of 4.5 miles from the trailhead with my cabin group at camp. I had my arms dangling at my side, and a 5 foot long rattlesnake bit me in the middle of my left palm.Source

    I thought it fitting to post my family’s encounter with a rattler outside of Gatlinburg, TN. The snake sunning itself, the family as far back as the trail permitted studying the snake, Noah seems nervous, and ok, so all the kids look nervous.

    As we visit the great outdoors, we have to remember, it is their home.

    Evan, at nearly 16 months, clearly says lots of words. Topping the list this morning:
    "Roomba"
    "I want"
    Below Evan explains his fascination with words.

  • Things are watching you – from the Internet

    Now that the Jeff Goldblum is watching you poop website is gone (yes, that link is intentionally broken) we have to look to other sites to remember why Jeff Goldblum is watching you poop. Of course, the Wayback Machine has the site. Looks like med school took presidence.

    So, onto replacement sites! Now we have the Ceiling Cat watching you masterbate. I thought everytime you masterbated a kitten died? What if the Ceiling Cat was that kitten?

  • I heart documentation

    I really enjoy writing specifications and making logic flow diagrams! I really should just hire a programmer to work with me and I concentrate on sales and project management.

    And that concludes a productive morning of proposal writing. Next up: run errands then program then cook then go to a meeting then program more.

    Husband: "What do you want for dinner honey?"
    Wife: "Anything but ribs or salmon."
    Husband: Gee thanks. That really narrows it down.

  • Facts of Life

    You know. It’s ok to run out of money. And it’s ok to run out of food. But it’s never ok to run out of food and money at the same time.
