Last night I got my Google Voice invite that I’ve been ever so patiently waiting for, and man is it slick. Setup took about 10 minutes total, and my first test of their transcriber went like so:
Which was transcribed to:
Hey moron. Let’s see how good Google Voice. Transport sincere garbage that you’re leaving on their share [...]
This is what it’s all about folks, the picture pretty much tells it all. I took the boys fishing today for the first time in a while, and they slayed ‘em. They each caught at least ten bluegills and four small box turtles. Will caught his first largemouth bass, and a nice one at that, [...]
Last Thursday night. In San Diego. After the Padres game. On the corner of 4th and Market. A buddy from work (who shall remain nameless) and I are heading back to our hotels from Rock Bottom Brewery (excellent beer), and we are approached by a girl that can’t be more than 20 years old:
Girl:
Hey guys, [...]
I’m heading out in a few hours to San Diego for the ESRI User Conference. I’m really looking forward to the conference, tons of GIS stuff, seeing some old buddies, enjoying the weather (damn, it’s hot in Houston this summer), and last but not least, getting some In-N-Out.
Sometimes some of the most entertaining TV you’ll see can come from your local news – especially if you live in Arkansas it seems. And so was the case last Tuesday night. But more about that later. First let’s talk about getting the recorded program off of the DVR so we share it with the [...]
Are you kidding me? I’m a major amatuer at anything .NET, and after some Googling and about 15 minutes of coding, this works. How ridiculously easy.

I just turned the corner from the kitchen to the dining room, and met up with our three year old son, and he hit me with this:
Son:
There was a booger in my nose.
Me:
And…what did you do with it?
Son:
I ate it.
Oh, the brutal honesty that is childhood.

Kids are amazing little buggers, especially when they are your amazing little buggers. One of the most amazing things about having kids is that you can actually learn from them. Yeah, imagine that. Something I have learned from our boys is that it really is the little things in life that make it all worth [...]
I’ve been doing alot of database design lately, although nothing too fancy, just some personal Access databases. However, I have run across some cool stuff that really got me excited (as pathetic as that may seem): concatenating fields and using logic in SQL calls.
