MLB’s “Actober” Campaign

Posted by: Steph on August 7th, 2007

I think Major League Baseball has a real winner with their Actober, “There’s Only One October” post season campaign. Dane Cook is great - you can’t help but get excited by his energy. He reminds me of Dennis Quaid.

A Few Colorado Geocaching Pictures

Posted by: Steph on August 7th, 2007

Below are two pictures from Sunday’s Dad Memorial geocaching expedition along Highway 6.
This has to be one of my favorite cache containers of all time - although a Moose’s Tooth Pony Keg would be the best!

The view from the cache at Centennial Cone park.

Where Am I?

Posted by: Steph on August 5th, 2007

After today, “Where Am I” is a very reasonable question - I’m definitely dizzy from a whirlwind day and a long way from where I started - at 4:25 AM when the phone rang. The ringing phone woke me from a very sound sleep. I had set my watch alarm for 4:00 AM - I […]

Finally!!!!

Posted by: Steph on August 4th, 2007

It was tense. It was nerve wracking. But the Red Sox finally took one from the Mariners in Seattle. I thought the poor Ski Boy was going to expire in the bottom of the 9th, when after two outs, Papelbon walked two before getting the final out on a foul pop up.
I’ll miss tomorrow’s series […]

Sky High with the Blue Angels

Posted by: Steph on August 4th, 2007

The Blue Angels are in Seattle for SeaFair. As a result, downtown Seattle gets rather noisy between 1:30 PM and 2:00 PM as the hot blue jets roll and turn all around the city.
I lucked into a great vantage point for yesterday’s final practice run prior to the weekend air shows. The Smith Tower (where […]

Or as Peter put it, Who’s Our Daddy?
The Red Sox lost their 9th in a row here in Seattle. Peter and I wondering if we’re a jinx.

In Seattle for the Red Sox-Mariners Series

Posted by: Steph on August 3rd, 2007

The Ski Boy, Pooh, and I arrived in the Emerald City last night. Definitely one of my favorite cities. We cabbed from the airport to the Vintage Park Hotel, checked in, and then zoomed down to Wild Ginger for my now traditional arrival night dinner at their Satay Bar.
Seth observed that I was “Norm” […]

Grip - Another Great Video

Posted by: Steph on August 2nd, 2007

Another great video heads up from Very Short List. The Dutch band Grip, created quite the performance. The trampoline action is really nifty (although it can induce a bit of vertigo). And be sure to watch the guy at the bottom of the screen as he paints the progress bar that we’re all so familiar […]

Christopher Guest video for Intel

Posted by: Steph on August 1st, 2007

A heads up via Very Short List - Christopher Guest of This is Spinal Tap and Best in Show fame has directed a hilarious send up video for Intel. Oh my goodness, it’s funny - in the Christopher Guest deadpan earnest, rock and roll way.
The lyrics are a hoot:
Remotely boot and troubleshoot!
Even while the OS […]
