Seattle Over Detroit, What a Crazy Game!

•November 8, 2009 • Leave a Comment

What a great game. Lots of emotional ups and downs. Tons of errors on both sides, including six interceptions and two field goal blunders.

Christine’s precious Detroit Lions — looking great in the 1st quarter — pulled her into watching the game.

But the Seattle Seahawks dominated the rest of the game. By the end of the 4th quarter Christine abandoned her team.

So sad. ;)

At a friends house, Christine made me wear this wig. This is my *whatever* face.

Apple Magic Mouse is Amazing, Just not for Me

•November 7, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Bryan and I went to the Apple Store today to check out the new Apple Magic Mouse. We both agreed that it's not for us. The main reason is that we are both mainly laptop users, and are comfortable with built-in trackpads. 

But even when using workstations, as we do at work, I find it way too small for my very large hands (Christine calls them Meat Mitts). 

All that being said, it's Apples best mouse ever, because it handles both left and clicks nicely with a great *click* feel. It also easily works for lefties. It just isn't, in my opinion, worth $70, since the *swipe* features aren't very compelling. 

Gizmodo has a great hands on and a full review.

I'm not big on holidays, but birthdays command a respect for tradition.

SEATTLE, WA–Local area man, Jaxon Brooks, woke up disparaged on the morning of his 43rd birthday to find that he was suddenly as old as actor, comedian, and two time Conan O’Brian sidekick Andy Richter. The mediocre Software Engineer and reluctant founder of the popular website MilkandCookies.com was unavailable for comment.
