Look Ma, I'm Famous!

My apologies if this post seems at all vain. I'm posting mostly for family and friends who are interested. Few others will care at all, except for perhaps my supposed fan club in Italy... Back in July when the ads first debuted via email, I had no idea just how much more the ads would circulate. I got a good laugh when David Robinison said : "This afternoon I got a couple of emails in my...

Hooray for FritoLay!

Today I discoverred the new line of Natural and Organic Snacks from FritoLay . I never thought Gaetano would be able to have Doritos due to his food allergies (which I believe I share so I avoid the same foods), but now he can! So far I've taste tested the Natural White Cheddar and Natural Cool Ranch Doritos and they're just as yummy as the original. The Natural White Cheddar Cheetos are...

Gaetano and Demetrius - FireFox Logo Recognition

As you may recall , Dan and I celebrated our love of FireFox a few days ago. Today, Dan wore his t-shirt and Gaetano thought it was really cool. Gaetano pointed at Dan's shirt and notices, "That looks like a fox. He has a nose." With loads of curiosity in his voice he asked, "Why is the fox on fire?" Naturally, Dan and I were pleased at his observation and the two of us...

Happy FireFox Day

Today Dan and I celebrated our love of FireFox . We are now the proud owners of the two available FireFox t-shirts ( navy and black ), though you'll probably never catch us both wearing the same one at the same time ( * or the same style for that matter). I also got Dan and Gaetano matching FireFox baseball hats. For our office wall, I bought us a limited edition poster of the Firefox two page...

Optical Dillusions

Back in February my optomitrist explained to me that I would probably never be able to see a stereogram 's image because my eyes don't know how to relax the way that they should. I've always thought that anyone who could see a stereogram was just making stuff up, there's nothing there, and it is all a practical joke. Yesterday while waiting for the doctor I finally saw it; a whale, several fish,...

UltraSound of Thyroid and FNA

I didn't know I was going to have this done today; it was just a consultation since it had been awhile since my goiter was looked at. I wish we'd brought my video camera! I've been putting off getting an FNA ( fine needle aspiration , a.k.a. fine needle biopsy) of the goiter in my neck since it was discovered back in 1997. Before you go scolding me for putting it off so long, it wasn't something...

Acquisition Approved by Shareholders

Word on the street is that Macromedia and Adobe shareholders approved the acquisition editor for, say it with me now... 3.4 <voice character="Austin Powers">billion</voice>. Regulators still have to approve it, though I can't see why they wouldn't. Given the sneak peek I posted about , I'd say both companies expect it to be official soon. Looks like it will be in the Fall,...

Getting ready for Kindergarten - Levels 1 and 2

It's almost time for Gaetano to start Kindergarten and we've been getting ready for it. He's really excited about it too, which is great. (This is going to be a really long post, but hang in there if you can because there's some cute momoments. I'm a sucker for cute moments though...) We already went school shopping for all the basic Kindergarten supplies so he'll be ready. When I was a kid, we...

Blog Comments

It seems that more and more I'm getting what seem might be legitimate comments posted in response to my blogging. When I look at the URL provided it turns out to be something... something... something I would rather not link to. Yeah, that's a nice way of putting it. It amazes me that people take the time to reply to blogs for the purpose of search engine recognition alone. Sorry...
