Last week I was saying to Damon, "Man, you know what I’d like to build? A tool that would allow me to pre-plot and save running routes so I'd know the exact mileage without having to drive them out. That way I could vary my training runs more often. And I could share my routes, [...]
Our friend Alyssa from Massachusetts takes an amusing poke at voters in New Hampshire who remain undecided up to the day before the primary. It prompted this probably over-sincere and humorless defense from me in her comment box — which I share also here in case someone's feeling guilty about being yet undecided (you now [...]

Not to watch any reruns in 2008. To make the whole year of 2008 a love poem to Kris, which she deserves and then some. To write more. To listen better. To pray better (which will probably also require better listening). To practice Spanish with the kids. To drop 20 pounds. To keep at least [...]

I don't know anymore what this particular page ought to do. But I know having it be a linkdump for my del.icio.us links is just ugly. So I've sent all my del.icio.us links to my Facebook page, instead. Along with my Twitter posts. Which now, of course, are fed by Twitterfeed directly from my Facebook [...]
