Upgrade

November 30, 2008 Jake 4 Comments
I thought it would be such a great idea this year, to take advantage of the Black Friday sales and buy some computer crap. Tadd and I went to the Microcenter in Boston around 10 A.M.. Finding a parking spot almost took longer than the amount of time we actually spent in the store. I … Continue reading Upgrade →

Beantown for Turkey Day

November 30, 2008 Jake 1 Comment
We had a total freaking blast (as usual) in Boston for Thanksgiving. We drove up Wednesday evening, which didn’t end up being very bad, since we stayed clear of 95. Thursday morning I went with Tadd and played a little turkey bowl. I have learned not to travel on Thanksgiving without my cleats. There were … Continue reading Beantown for Turkey Day →

Viva la turkey day

November 26, 2008 Jake 3 Comments
Tonight we will be heading up to Bean Town to spend Thanksgiving with our Boston homies. Here is a picture from last year. My two best friends from high school both live in the Boston area. We are pretty bummed out about the prospect that this is most likely the last time, for a while … Continue reading Viva la turkey day →

La Musica Coolica #4

November 25, 2008 Jake
I first discovered M.I.A. in one of my mens’ magazines 2 or 3 years ago. Corny, I know. It is actually kind of pathetic, the high percentage of my limited pop culture knowledge that is pulled from those tabloid rags. Eh, it’s better than watching any of the TV shows that cover that kind of … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #4 →

Sorry, Cougar fans. I couldn’t resist.

My favorite part is “BYU Cougar, made with real fruit.” Hahaha. So good.

Visit from G-ma Baker

November 25, 2008 Jake
Piper has been spoiled lately with all kinds of visits from cousins, aunts uncles and grandparents. Last weekend, Piper grandma Baker came to visit her. Apparently she had been saving up some tricks specifically for this occasion. It was the first time that we had ever seen Piper completely flip herself over onto her stomach. … Continue reading Visit from G-ma Baker →

12-0

November 23, 2008 Jake 2 Comments
I haven’t even had a chance to sit down at the computer this weekend. I probably still won’t, until later today. But I couldn’t wait any longer to express my elation about the U of U football victory last night.That is why I’m being forced to post this not-so-great picture of us watching the game … Continue reading 12-0 →

Love me some Google innovation

November 21, 2008 Jake
Who else thinks that the new Gmail customizable themes are pretty awesome? Am I just easily amused? I thought it was so great when they released this new feature the other day. I, being a fan of street art, went straight for the graffiti wall background. I wanted to see the variations depending on which … Continue reading Love me some Google innovation →

Fires and Sunrises

November 21, 2008 Jake
Yesterday afternoon, I was in a conference room before a meeting and there was this huge plume of smoke out in NJ. I took this crappy picture of it with my phone. I read today that it was an overturned tanker. It was pretty crazy how much smoke was coming out of that thing. I … Continue reading Fires and Sunrises →

Hooray for the weekend

November 21, 2008 Jake
I’m not really sure why, but for some reason, it is already starting to feel like holiday season. I guess maybe because next week is Thanksgiving. I can definitely tell, though. I feel like the whole pulse of the city becomes slightly modified twice a year. It happens once for vacation season, in late summer, … Continue reading Hooray for the weekend →
