Humpday almost snuck by...

but I decided I've been neglecting the tips and tricks for too many weeks in a row. So without further delay:
LIFE CHANGING TIPS AND TRICKS!!!!
This tip is especially good for us as well as MJ and the soon-to-be-missus... OMG PAINTING TIPS!!! I hope it's not to late to be helpful. Make sure to check out the related wiki's as there were several great ones.

Insane finish at the Daytona 500.. Clint Bowyer crosses the finish line upside down. From SIPhotos.
It was a crazy race all around... I don't have enough patience/willpower to sit through a whole race but thank goodness for SportsCenter, I love me some highlights. Speaking of SportsCenter they recently celebrated their 30,000th episode. Crazy business for sure... go here for their awesome commercials.

Slight switch in gears to some football talk.. Nebraska seems to have a decent recruiting class coming. If Callahan can keep the momentum he has moving forward I think they really have a chance of returning to the top 10 end of the polls for a good stretch again.
And in the NFL, the combine is geared up to roll. Should be an interesting draft given the small free agent pool this season. Ohh! I plan to go and see the SuperBowl trophy on Friday, hopefully I'll remember my camera so I can get a photo. I also need to take my camera by the Colts practice facility to get a picture of the awesome banner they have up. Ok.. I sleep now... you read in the morning.

Two-For Tuesday!

So I already posted once today, but it's all Blog Update stuff so I thought I would do a separate post for my normal stuff.

Adobe has released a compatibility list of their products and whether they work with Vista. How Adobe Products Support Windows Vista pdf
Speaking of Vista, check out this cool new gadget for your sidebar. Finding this led me to poke around with some of the other gadgets, there are quite a few really good ones out there currently, and new ones all the time.

Alright, Colts Updates:
Dungy will be back next year.... awesome. Also, Dwight Freeney picks up the franchise tags. Those not up on football lingo, this is what franchise tags means.

OH! And the latest Simpsons Movie Trailer:

Blog Update

I'm using FeedBurner now on my blog to help with adding options for people to subscribe to my blog. There's a new section at the bottom of the right hand column called "Subscribe now"... clicking the first link will allow you to choose from several different options of subscribing, the second link is for those that are running the customized Google page (adds my feed as an element), the third link takes you to a form to subscribe via email, and the last is just a link to the FeedBurner site. If you have a blog they offer a lot of handy tools to make your life easier. One of the handy tools is broad statistics, so you can see how many hits you get, etc.

Please subscribe if you find it hard to remember to visit here sometimes, subscribing will deliver my updates to you when I make them. Ok, I'm gonna make a new post about regular stuff and leave this one as just the blog update.

Weekend Visitors

Jenni's parents spent the weekend with us... we had a great time.

Saturday was swimming class where Carson got to show off all he has learned so far. Then we had Red Lobster for lunch and my parents joined us for a great meal. Later we all just relaxed while some snow fell and watched movies.

Sunday we went to the Children's Museum... which is where I finally got my camera out.

Glad we could have you out for a visit, Rich and Shirl! See you in April.

April 14th will be Carson's birthday party... let me know if you are interested in attending and I'll make sure you get an invitation.

My favorite day of the week

Fridays are good, most of the time. For me it's normally a catch-up day... laid back mainly as well. Great all around.

Like puzzles but like to win even more? This Rubik's Cube is for you. heh

Hey! Did you know they are changing Daylight Saving Time? Yea, well... it might mess up some of your gadgets. So read here to learn more. "What?? They changed DST??" you say? Why yes they did! Dirty, dirty monkeys... if you ask me.

So it's that time again...
Friday Funnies
This week we visit GU Comics.. Gamer-centric comic, that covers everything surrounding gaming. Normally short paneled and gets right to the funny.

BTW, in case you missed the Grammy's (because I know I did)... THE POLICE TOGETHER!!

SlickDeals has a couple bargains worth looking at today... not knowing how long they'll last I'll just give you a general link to the site. HERE!

Maybe some more later.

I love Terry.. The original clip:

And one I hadn't seen before.. the follow-up:

Snow Day... part 2

So we're having our second snow day in a row... The Indy Airport says they have received 9" of snow. I think we've gotten a little more than that where we live. Hendricks county (where we live) is under a snow emergency, which means it's "illegal" to be out on the road (unless of course it's an emergency). IUPUI has canceled classes for the second straight day and Jenni's work canceled their clinic for a second day.

We've tried to snowblow/shovel but it's rough... there are layers of snow and layers of ice together. The snowblower isn't doing well either... heh. We did make some time to play in the snow with Carson. I'll be putting some pictures up shortly.
