Xbox 360 Call of Duty Patch
Finally, Infinity Ward has released information on the long awaited patch for COD2 on the Xbox 360 to address some multiplayer issues. The games is really good, but at times connection issues can make the online experience very frustrating. Unfortunately, I did not see a date for the patch release. Here’s some of what we […]
Showstopper Pictures
I have uploaded some pictures from this past weekends Showstopper Regional Dance Competition in Phoenix, AZ. Some of the other families there are supposed to have taken some actual dance competition photos – unlike us. I hope to get a hold of some of those at a later date and add them to the album. […]
IRiver MP3 Player
Finally figured out how to get my new mp3 player working. It’s been a frustrating week or so. I initially thought it was a problem with my damn satellite connection cause I was getting other proxy errors in Rhapsody. I thought it might be interfering with the DRMA junk. I tried waiting for the new […]
Winners at ShowStopper
Wow, what a LOOOONNGGGGG weekend at ShowStopper. Left around noon on Friday and returned on Sunday evening. Most the time between was spent in an auditorium watching a bunch of dancers compete.

Winter Olympics
It’s Winter Olympics time again. I am having a hard time getting into it this year. I tried watching a little bit this weekend but it was a struggle. I may not watch much of the rest except when Suzanne calls me to see something. One of the main issues is NBC. I dont think […]

You may remember a previous post where I blogged about Sean winning his school’s spelling bee and qualifying for the county competition. The spelling bee is for middle school students in grades 3rd – 8th and is an open competition (not grade specific). Once again, […]
