I met Jeff Bagwell today. Kind of a big thing for me. He, Craig Biggio, and Ken Caminiti were my favorite Astros when I was growing up. They made up the core of the infield for many years, with Biggio behind the plate initially, and then at second base. After Caminiti passed away a few [...]
Just insane to see this photo of today’s US Airways crash into the Hudson:
Janis Krums posted this to his Twitter account from the ferry which was trying to save the people on the plane. How else are you going to get immediate photos from this perspective as an event like this is happening, than by [...]
For the past several months, as you’ve probably heard if you’ve been around us at all, or read this blog, Becky and I have been trying to cook more of our own food, eat more organics, and eat generally more healthily. That also has been kicked up a notch with our New Year’s Resolutions, and [...]

American Chop Suey
So proud
Eating blackeyed peas on New Year’s Day reminded me that I needed to teach myself how to make my own…the good way…the way great-grandma used to make them when I was a kid. I’m sure these weren’t done the way she did it because I never watched her make them, but I was trying to [...]

Sunny side up eggs a la America’s Test Kitchen:

Big & chewy chocolate chip cookies…also America’s Test Kitchen:
And I managed to slice off a bit of my thumb while dicing bell [...]
I read a while back that if you are going to set goals or make resolutions, you should write them down, and not just have them floating around in your head. If you actually commit them to paper (or I guess the internet), you’ll be more likely to go back and look at them and [...]
Here’s the 2 encores of Hamlet Under a Bridge from First Night Austin, New Year’s Eve 2008:
Sorry about the quality…point and shoot video from afar is not always the greatest. Fun times though!
We spent New Year’s Eve 2008 running around with the Graebers. First, Becky had to work, so I went with Brad & Mandy down to First Night Austin to see a 15 minute presentation of Hamlet under a bridge. It was pretty crazy…lots of fun! The encore was an under 2 minute performance, and the [...]
