Sean’s football team came close today, but they still went down to defeat. The final score was 14 – 13. This leaves Sean’s team winless for the year. The difference in the game was an extra point. At this age, teams get 2 points for a passing conversion and 1 point for a run conversion. […]
Website Moves
I recently made the decision to move my websites (four in production with fifth in planning) to a new host and new server. This decision didnt come easily. I wasnt really all that happy with the current host. They (hostingplex.com) had gone through many rough areas. I had been with them for about 15 months. […]
New Digital Camera
I finally broke down and bought Suzanne a new digital camera. I have been frustrated with hers ever Âsince she damaged a couple of parts on it a while back. After some research and trading off features versus cost, I decide on the Canon Powershot A630. Its an 8 mexapixel camera with decent ISO and […]
Whew – Long Day…
Wow, what a long day today was… We left the house at 8:45 this morning to get to Benson for the football game. It was another typical sunny, hot Arizona day for football and a visit to Apple Annies for some family fun. The football game went in typical fashion for Sean’s team. They lost […]
Big Klasen Family Tree Update
I have finally gotten around to updating the Klasen Family Genealogy site with some of my recent research. When I get a bit of spare time, I have been finding little tidbits of information that I have been collecting. Recently, I also made a discovery of another family tree that had a pretty good tie […]

Football + Arizona + September = Hot
Wow, what a day for football today. There wasnt a cloud in the sky and the temperatures rose above 90 degrees. That’s not the norm for Arizona in September, but its not that outlandish either. Being as we are in the mountains, it must have been pushing 100 in Tucson. Sean had another football game […]
Technology Woes Continue
It’s been a rough couple of weeks for some of my tech items. First, the treadmill died (twice actually). Now, my gaming headset (mic and headhones) for my PC has crapped out. I was in the middle of an America’s Army game, discussing strategy with my 158th clanmates, when the microphone stopped working. I tried […]
Doom Available on Xbox Live Arcade
Today, another old school game was released on Xbox Live Arcade for the Xbox 360. The game released was Doom. Doom is often credited with beginning the 1st Person Shooter revolution. Today, 1st Person Shooters are one of the most popular genres of video gaming. The graphics for Doom on Xbox Live Arcade look pretty […]
Treadmill Woes Continue
So much for the treadmill woes being solved. I hopped on it again yesterday for a workout. About 5 minutes into the program, barely enough time to break a sweat, the treadmill once again seized up and stopped. I suspected another blown fuse which would not bode well for the treadmill. Continual blowing of a […]
