Posted on December 12, 2007 - Filed Under Technology | 2 Comments
Sometimes you’re just looking for information. At those times a general purpose search engine is perfect. But sometimes you’re looking for people and that’s where the “big boys” of search all fall apart. What we need is a completely searchable online Who’s Who for whatever it is that interests us. Luckily, we already have one in Spock. I’ve written about Spock before, and have used it a few dozen times since then. Spock’s not only helped me learn more about…

Aahz got french toast with their famous bread. I got berry pancakes. We both agree that their food was delicious. We got back in Rover (our car) and…

Part of the Discovering Discovery Kingdom Series - Next in series
So I’ve been lagging pretty heavy on getting the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom weekend report written (Z and I went on the 20th & 21st of October), so she finally got fed up and wrote the darn report herself! So, here it is, the first ever guest blogger on Philaahzophy…

Creating Long Term Goals
Posted on November 8, 2007 - Filed Under Fatherhood | Leave a Comment
I’ve been struggling with Z over the idea of long term goals and the concept that one must sacrifice some things in order to achieve greater things.
