    Reagan got some Ray Bans for her birthday and has been rocking them on a regular basis since then. Of course, I still have my Cosmo Girls. This whole thing where she takes pictures of us in the car on the way to see Piper, seems to be a reoccurring theme. We also got Bebe…

    Something awesome that I saw, when we were out and about, tonight. I couldn’t wait to share it.

    -I was in the subway last night, and I saw a homeless guy wearing a backpack that said “Zions National Park” on it. I would bet money that the guy has absolutely no concept of the significance of Zions National Park. I, however, do. With the temperature dipping down the way it did last night,…

    I had some time on my hands last night, so I decided to modify Jakesnewblog a little bit. I widened it out to 950px and dropped in another mini-sidebar on the left. I also extended the width of the slide show banner by 150px. Since I had the pictures all cropped to a specific size…

    So much for the old sailor adage about red skies at night. You can’t really tell from these pictures, but it is flurrying here in lower Manhattan. As in, SNOW flurries. I’m pretty bent out of shape (if it is possible for me to be anymore out of shape than I was before I saw…

    I’m guessing it’s because of the current phase of construction on WTC, but for whatever reason, they have the sidewalk closed along West Street. I was really annoyed about this, at first. When I have to deviate from my routines, annoyance seems to be the default attitude. Whatever grief this inconvenience  initially caused me, was…

    I thought it was fitting that I finish the book “1776” on Presidents day. I guess it would have been more fitting, had I finished it on Independence Day, but whatev. Presidents day is cool enough. I also hadn’t realized before reading this book, that I was born on the 200th anniversay of the battle…

    Piper had a very photoriffic (I just made that up) Valentines Day weekend. Reagan had a great visit with her on Friday, then our friends the McNeils came to visit her on Saturday. We were also able to spend several hours with her on Sunday evening. All in all, there were many many pictures taken,…
