The Cure For Your Shrinking Shower
Posted on April 24, 2008 - Filed Under Shopping | Leave a Comment
Is your shower shrinking? Do you feel like this guy?
According to MoreShowerSpace.com 47% of shower curtains get “clingy”, effectively reducing the amount of space you have while showering. According to Z, my roommate and myself, our shower curtain is the “King of Cling”, acting up 89% of the time or more. Not a big problem for Z, but my roommate…

Part of the Riddles and Puzzles Series - Next in series
Picked up Z from school today and was immediately presented with a riddle that Ms. Falconer (her favorite teacher and mine) offered up to the class today. Anyone who solves the riddle will receive an in class reward. I believe I can figure it out, but we’re on…
Moving Forward With My Weight Loss Goals
Posted on April 24, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | 5 Comments
Thirteen days to my weight loss deadline and I’ve been cracking down rather successfully. Last week I reported that I’d bounced back up to 242 pounds, well I’m proud to report that I’ve not only regained my footing, but moved even further into territory that hasn’t been explored in a few years: 235 pounds! WooHoo! That’s a net weight loss…
Ron Paul, Pennsylvania and The Free State Project
Posted on April 24, 2008 - Filed Under Living Free, Vote 2008 | Leave a Comment
On Tuesday nearly 130,000 people voted for Dr. Ron Paul in the Pennsylvania Presidential Primary. That was 16% of the Republicans voting in the primary, and approximately 1.5% of the registered voters in the state. The reasons Paul’s results were so high (or so low) have been analyzed all over the media and blogosphere over the last couple of days,…
Rover Passed His Test - Now For His Reward
Posted on April 23, 2008 - Filed Under Road Trippin', Shopping | Leave a Comment
As I’ve mentioned, Rover (my beloved 1989 Ford Bronco) passed his smog check today. Given his age, the fact I’m not remotely a mechanic, and that he’s classified by the DMV as having a “High Emitter Profile” I seriously had my doubts. Z, on the other hand, had complete faith. Now that we know Rover won’t be stolen away by…
‘Cause Jefferson Don’t Dance
Posted on April 23, 2008 - Filed Under Living Free | Leave a Comment
These dances and this kind of music can be destructive, and, uh, Ren, I’m afraid you’re going to find most of the people in our community are gonna agree with me on this.

Yeah, I just quoted Footloose, what’s it to you? The fact of the matter is I haven’t been able to get the film oput of…
Keep Your Windshield Clear On Cold Mornings
Posted on April 23, 2008 - Filed Under Road Trippin' | Leave a Comment
Living the bulk of my life in California (and traditionally being a late sleeper) I’ve only rarely walked out to my car on a cold morning only to discover the windshield so covered with frost that I couldn’t see out of it. However, while chatting with a native New Hampshirite the other day he passed on a tip to avoid…
72 Hours Tobacco Free - An Apology
Posted on April 23, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | Leave a Comment
I passed the 72 hour mark without smoking a cigarette a few short minutes ago. Overall today was definitely easier than yesterday. But it still had its challenges.
The morning started with the return commute to San Jose to finish getting Rover smogged (I promise to post my rant on this tomorrow), but this time I hit major traffic. After being essentially parked…
