Family History
August 29, 2006
Its getting to be time to get back to doing some research on family history. I havent touched it in about 6 months, but am going to soon. I dont know much about my family’s history and would like to learn more. Unfortunately, most of my family doesnt know much about the history either. That makes the research difficult. I want to upload some pictures and some interesting stories about family members.
A lot more is known about Suzanne’s side of the family. I have captured a bunch of that info, but have some more to document. In addition, Suzanne’s dad recently retired and is taking a geneaology course at the local college. He wants to find more and capture what he already knows and some of his stories. I expect the info on Suzanne’s side to grow significantly.
I am going to try to enlist my family to help out, but havent had favorable results in the past. Maybe this time…
In addition, I recently found a guy starting development of a wordpress plugin for phpgedview, which is the web app I use. When finished, it should integrate the two nicely. I will play with it this weekend and maybe even offer some help.
The wine tasting last night was a lot of fun. I think I had more than the three or four glasses of wine I had mentioned I would probably have. So, it was a bigger cheat from my NutriSystem diet than planned. Luckily, its just calories, so hopefully, it will have minimal impact.
Cruise Talk Central Gets Face Lift
August 26, 2006
Wow, didnt know it had been two days since I posted
I guess time flies when you are having fun. I have been tied up with changing/improving the way Cruise Talk Central looks.
I have a bunch of things I want to do and the current layout was cramping my style and taking things very vertical. I decided I needed to update the appearance and spread it out a bit and go to three columns. So, I have been working that the last few days and its finally ready for primetime. If you havent visited Cruise Talk Central lately (or at all), stop on by and say hi! Let me know what you think!
A couple of quick notes…
The Texas Hold Em game for Xbox 360 is good and addictive. Working on mostly the single player game right now (tournaments against cpu and such) with an occasional foray online. My bankroll is growing, so thats good.
I havent had a chance to play Madden 2007 yet, but its moments away – just as soon as I finish this post.
Sean had a football scrimmage and was a terror on defense with at least a dozen tackles. He wasnt too happy on offense though as he had to play center since the regular kids werent there. He did so well, the coaches said they move him from fullback to the line anyways which is not what he really wants to do on offense.
