It's no secret that I love coffee.
I love it dripped, pressed, espressed, and pretty much in any form except percolated.
Yet, I've stopped drinking it regularly.
It's for a simple reason: I want to be able to function in the absence of coffee. I recently went on a hike with Myles and ...

My internal combustion engine has been firing on all cylinders today. I've been going for health and whipped this up with some left-overs: a lime-barley salad.
Whisk in a mixing bowl:
Juice of 1/2 a small lime
1/6 to 1/3 of a cup of olive oil
Pepper to taste
Then add and stir into the ...

At work - we're making a concerted effort at work to get our product development cycle to the "Feature Complete" state. This means that all the prescribed features are implemented and that after this date (3/31), we will be in stabilization ("polishing up") ...

Turns out that I didn't miss Beer Fest after all. It closed.
That just goes to show that a questionable location and zero marketing will always be a death knell to a fledgling business. All the same, however, my friends and I will miss the atmosphere and beer selection.
RIP Beer Fest ...

It's like tasting freedom, one scoop at a time.I have sampled Stephen Colbert's AmeriCone Dream, and let me tell you, freedom tastes sweet. A near impossible find (made more possible by virtue of my proclamation to the contrary), Stephen Colbert's AmeriCone Dream is a delight once you do. Our good ...

I'm back from Seattle (as of last night).
I had a great time. Many thanks to Shane for showing me around the area -- especially Mac and Jacks and The Tap House. That was some damn fine beer and food. I'm also happy to report that my growler made the trip ...

"Zantar is a gelatinous cube that eats warriors in a medieval village."
Shane lived the dream. He had a mole black and tan.
I had a life-defining realization on top of the Space Needle today. It was an amazing revelation; a bit of startling self-discovery. It turns out that I really love ...

Sarah, David, Myles, Kim, and I hit the Red Wave Inn (really, a bar) across the street from Fresno State.

It's too loud.
In a nutshell, it's a place where college students gather, be loud, and drink crappy beer. Avoid. ...
