SubscribePitstop on the way down…love this courthouse! Found right down the street from the courthouse, three old Ford Edsels… Anyone who’s sat through Texas History knows how important this place is…its the Birthplace of Texas Finally, at the hotel. Nome’s tired and ready to call it a day. So am I, thus the slightly blurry...
Today is my Friday, thank goodness. The past few weeks have been crazy to sum it up in a single word. Thankfully I’m escaping most of it for the next few days. I wish this is where I was going, but its not. Regardless, I need some time away to think through some stuff and...
While I’m in the complaint / rant mode when it comes to gas prices, I figured I’d go ahead and extend it to the airlines. AA.com is offering a round trip flight from DFW to Austin for $229. Gas–at $4.00/gallon, is cheaper round trip. Dear Airline, do explain this? By the time I drive the 75...
Well, after nearly a year of hiatus, [Geek Notes] is back on a new domain. About a month ago, I temporarily relocated it to my business domain while contemplating a new domain name. And, thus, 5foot4.org. Why 5foot4.org? Well, that’s my height. Well, close enough. I’m more like 5foot3 and 3quarters. So why make myself...

How does one cope with the slow passage of time? Keep something in your office that reminds you of summer/vacation/time off that will...
Absolutely. ridiculous. I can’t say that phrase enough. Two weeks ago, the station I tend to stop at most went up 11 cents in 10 hours (from the time I passed by on my way to work until I stopped on my way home to get gas. Yesterday morning at a few minutes before seven,...
I haven’t watched much of American Idol (ever, to be honest!), but what little I’ve caught, mostly on Entertainment Tonight, I didn’t want David Archuleta to win. He annoyed me as much as Sanjaya did. So I’m very happy that David Cook won Word is he’s a native Texas (born here), so that’s even better!
Parade article and saw the Randy Pausch had with Diane Sawyer. While I’ve not listened to the lecture yet (pesky dial up connection), I read his entire book in one sitting. All I can say is that it is a must read. I’m trying to convince my 19 year old brother, who doesn’t like to...
