Free-range Chickens – K8 & Jess On the Road
I did warn her that it would end up on-line at some point. Last year we rented a van to pick up stuff from Tioga and help my parents move. The van was one of those kidnapper models; big, noisy, and with a badly functioning radio. I have always loved conversations with Caidy, so on…

Logo for Phergie
After I mentioned the logo I’m creating for Caidy, Matthew Turland casually mentioned that Phergie could use a logo. Phergie is open source IRC bot written in PHP (My non-technical friends’ eyes have glazed over about now).

For some reason these people thought out of state newbies from Phoenix would…

Kitchen Make Over
Our kitchen and dining room area takes up about a third of our small house and has one tiny window. Why anyone would paint the walls prison gray and make a dark textured faux stone back splash from cement and plaster I don’t know. Previous owners left us with a large cave-like room more suitable…

The Last Loose Caboose T-Shirt That Never Was
So it’s been over 10 years since the Loose Caboose Coffee House shutdown and stopped making all that racket in West Monroe & Monroe, Louisiana. I thought it would be fitting to post the artwork for the t-shirt that I was working on that final year. Before the Loose Caboose was morphed and resold to…

New MacBook Pro, Finally!
I still haven’t finished setting things up, but it’s good to have something to replace our five year old Powerbook. W00t!
