Fictional Birds can Too Fly

April 5, 2008 – 11:51 pm

The Kansas Jayhawks have another date with destiny on Monday, as they have advanced to the championship round in the men’s NCAA basketball tournament. My little bride and I will be tuned in at 9:21 EDT on Monday, as the Jayhawks take on Memphis for the crown.
My only regret is that I can’t [...]

Found via the Twitter

I just noticed somebody found this old blog via the Twitter. My readership could be crossing into double digits any day now.

Twitter in Tank

April 5, 2008 – 2:49 pm

My natural sensitivity renders it unthinkable that I use the acronym form of this post’s title. I check the Twitter a few times a day, much like e-mail. Just now, I got the overly cute “Something is Technically Wrong” twitter advisory.

CREATEively Yours

April 5, 2008 – 2:31 pm

Only two weeks until CREATEsouth, 2008. Still plenty of time to register for this free conference for the rest of us.
I’d be there myself; life has, for better or worse, intervened, and I’ll be watching from afar yet again. The rest of you, if you have any hankering to visit beautiful Myrtle Beach SC [...]

Pigman, Open that Store!

April 5, 2008 – 1:06 pm

Well, it’s happened again; we’re out of Pigman’s Sauce. A coworker brought me in a bottle, and when that’s gone, it’s gone. The Pigman has been redoing his website; thus far, there’s no Store tab. I used the website contact form to make this plaintive request:
I’m out of sauce for the first time [...]

Hoops tonight

April 5, 2008 – 12:43 pm

Memphis/UCLA at 6PM, followed by North Carolina/Kansas thereafter. We’re making lasagna, salad, and bread, something that’s a no-brainer to throw together in advance, and can be ready by gametime. In such a fashion, we can be nourished whilst absorbing all the exciting action.
This is a first for me; my picks for the Final Four are [...]

Go, June Bug!

Earnhardt Jr. earns pole for Sunday’s Texas Cup race
