An old friend of mine I’ve mentioned a few times on my blog is pitching against the Rockies tonight here in Denver at 7:05, and I’ll be going. Sweet! He’s been back and forth between the Padres and Beavers all year, and is luckily making another appearance in Denver. I’m excited to finally get to [...]

The New CFDJ Editorial Board
21Aug06I’m proud to announce that I’m now part of the ColdFusion Developer’s Journal Editorial Board. We have quite an impressive list of experienced developers and evangelists in the community, and I’m honored to be part of the great group helping steer the magazine along with Jeremy and Simon. I’ve always enjoyed writing and critiquing technical [...]
The Trip To Seattle
04Aug06I try to visit somewhere I haven’t been before for several days at least once a year, and this year the choice was Seattle. I got back late on Wednesday night and thought I’d write an entry to sort of sum up my trip and provide links to the places I visited, as well as [...]
Don’t Anger The ‘Gulls
03Aug06Be sure to feed the Gulls Or they might get angry and gang up on you. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to capture an angry Seagull on video, but damn are they loud…
I managed to make it to Seattle and luckily wasn’t gunned down, though our hotel is about 4-5 blocks from where the “hate-crime” shooting went down. I think we were just getting settled into the suite when we started hearing all kinds of sirens, followed by hovering helicopters. Once Lindsey and I got in, we [...]
Snakes On A Plane
28Jul06A couple of days ago, I realized that I’ll be putting Snakes On A Plane on tomorrow– I’m flying on Friday to Seattle to spend about a week there for some exploring and relaxation in the Pacific Northwest. Of course my laptop is going with me, which has Python installed,. I’ll be taking plenty of [...]
Well, I’ve finally completed a long trail from end-to-end. This is the third time I’ve done the Cherry Creek Bike Trail– the first time I had to turn back because of inclement weather, the second time I didn’t quite make it to the swim beach because it was already dark and I had to make [...]
Biking For Non-Bikers
04Jul06As I mentioned in my last post, I’ve been getting back into biking lately, and I’m having a blast. My initial ride about 3 weeks ago was around 8 miles, and today I completed a 19 mile ride. I think I could have squeezed out a few more miles if the weather hadn’t been crappy [...]
For a more in-depth review of this bike with more photos, check out my extended review of the 2006 Trek 7.5 FX Disc on Reviewfoo. Lately I’ve been getting back into biking for many reasons, including the health benefits (I can certainly use the exercise), fun, and of course it’s not a bad idea given [...]
The Roots In Boulder
06Jun06I headed to Boulder last night to see The Roots at the Fox Theatre. I have to admit I was pretty underwhelmed for a lot of the concert– they just don’t sound the same without someone on a trumpet, a sax, and a female vocalist, especially when they play their older material (which is what [...]
