I know I have been slacking on blogging lately, but when you see news like this you have to report it immediately.   Make sure you are sitting down — THE ACTUAL NIGHT RIDER CAR IS FOR SALE. 
I used to love this show in high school.  Many nights my sister and I watched the beautiful [...]

So a few weeks ago, Lapster and I stared to have a debate (I would call it a fight – he would call it a debate). I started telling him that I wanted to show him “my new favorite Hack.” He told me I was using the word incorrectly, but I thought I [...]

Hi everyone, Lapster here with something scientific that deserves recognition. In the world of energy production, nothing comes close to being 100% efficient. The short concept behind that is that when you make one kind of energy (electricity, for example) you always disperse energy in the process.

As Lapster said, last weekend we went up to Vancouver Canada for a Valentine. The weather was sunny (well, not rainy — which in the Pacific Northwest is by default a sunny day), we had a beautiful hotel, and spent a day or two walking city streets shopping and drinking coffee. Honestly, it [...]

Actually, it’s not wireless — just hidden wires.
I’m crazy about organizing and this is like my messiah for a beautiful desk. I want to use my new skills in GTD and this idea on Lapster. Maybe he will be my guinea pig to keep the limitless lengths of cable and cords in control. I know [...]

Oh yeah! This is the gift of my dreams — of course I don’t have a pool to use it in, but who cares I want it anyway.  It inflates to 15ft tall, has three sides of climbing walls with varying degrees of difficulty, and on the fourth side the ultimate waterslide.

If you want one [...]

Yes, if you can believe it I was up before 8am. Lapster was working early today and I got up like a good little girlfriend to keep him company, and make coffee (even made sure he ate his oatmeal before he got on the road). After he left, I was in the back [...]

For a while, Lapster and I were on different coasts, and one of the biggest challenges was trying to video chat. Long story short – I’m Mac. He’s PC.  We are like Capulets and Montagues. Sharks and Jets. Oscar and Felix.  We are in counseling to work out this critical relationship [...]
