Last Friday was bike to national bike to work day. I did take the tall bike down to the convention center, where I was attending a conference, but it wasn’t really “to work”. In fact, since the move last month, I haven’t manage to ride the full route… We now live on the opposite end […]

We have been in our new home just over a month, and the time seemed right for a little destruction. To the right you will see my lovely, partner with her new, favorite toy: a Bobcat Mini Track Loader with the largest trenching attachment that we could rent. It is a rental from Portland Rent-All […]

Well this is embarrassing … I was going through the unpublished drafts on my blog and realized that I never posted anything about the wedding. Which happened last July! Sure, everyone who got an invitation knows about wedding.nagmay.com, but it still seems like I should have a reference here. + I just uploaded the official […]

You might have noticed that we like to brew up some beer from time to time. One of the more expensive ingredients for home brew is hops (Humulus lupulus). It is added for the bitter and aroma qualities that help to offset the malty/sweet flavors that form during the brewing process. Without it, beer would […]

I was just on the phone with my brother talking about my recent bike crash and he had a great idea: Automagic Bike Camera Imagine a small box (size of a small cell phone) strapped to your handle bars. Inside, it simply contains a small flash, camera(s) and a battery. The camera is triggered be […]

Now that the offer has been accepted, I feel comfortable uploading the fuzzy photos that we took during the walk-through:

I am stuck in my cube today. However, my father was “nice enough” to send me some photos that he took today during a walk at the 1000 acres wilderness area. Just thought that I would share for all those others stuck inside today…

One of my favorite blogs: boingboing asked for a critique of a logo change. My 2¢’s? The new logo looses a visual bouncing reference created by the letter height and whitespace. See what I mean below: Also, the before conforms to a smaller grid of pixels 7×45 if I’m not mistaken. The after would take […]

Our good friends Bryan and Sou had a second wedding this weekend. The first one was a summer event on the Oregon coast. This one was held in Tacoma near Sou’s family and included many Laotian traditions. Unfortunately, my camera didn’t do very well in the given lighting. Some of the photos are blurry and […]

THIS. From owl in box [Reynen’s Livejournal] via BoingBoing: Well… It reminded me of this picture that I never got around to posting. It was taken last summer on our first attempt to react the Bull of the Woods fire tower. We were cutting away logs to slowly advance up this dirt road, when all […]
