Working at a radio station poses some very interesting opportunities. I’ve already made my “debut” on-air as myself in an impromptu discussion about World of Warcraft, but this time I got jump into one of the best characters ever. Macho Man Randy Savage.

This was Christmas #29 for me and I find it somewhat funny to think about Christmas presents over the years. Every year we get presents for Christmas, but how many presents to we actually remember getting and loving? Most of those are from our childhood, supposedly when presents were a big deal. But sometimes…just sometimes…you get a present that is a big deal even when you’re an adult.
The one Christmas present I remember getting that literally changed my life was my Nintendo. I got it when I was in fourth …

Chores suck. Nobody wants to do them but we all know they need to get done. From dishes to trash to scrubbing floors, it’s hard to get motivated to do things around the house.

Finding that sweet spot that lets them have ready access to whatever they need while keeping them confident about their work. That’s why I enjoyed creating software for so long. I’ve made dozens of programs that essentially organize information for people, (hopefully) making their job a little easier. But sometimes it’s the simplest methods that make …

It’s not usually a good sign when you blog about blogging, but in this case it’s not really about getting down on my writing or complaining about how I don’t blog anymore. This time it’s about the technical side of blogging, which then leads to the writing side.
I had to do a fresh install of Wordpress at work for a project and after going through the normal (and easy) installation found that the Wordpress interface had changed entirely. I was blown away. I know the version of Wordpress that runs …

Our first radio show back on the air wasn’t too bad. A lot of friends showed up to listen and chat and even though we were late to the dance thanks to some technical fooling, all went pretty well.
The new Ustream service we picked up worked pretty well. The built-in chat was a little to be desired, but it did work and let us talk with listeners. The lag between us and Ustream was very short, so when we asked a question on-air, people could answer in chat and we’d …
