Perusing some blogs this evening I ran across this cool viral campaign from “Who is the Commander” which is believed to be a new game for the Wii. It’s an intriguring little campaign, check out wii fanboy’s post on it if you want to learn more.

I thought I would have Cruise pics up by now but underestimated how much catching up I’d have. I’ve been in the office all day since I got back and after a conference call this morning and a lunch have spent the rest of today there as well.
Now I’m just about where I need to [...]
After a solid weeks vacation cruising aboard a massive boat in the Caribbean with LG and my fam I am back on land in DC.
It was a good trip, ate a lot, slept a lot, relaxed a lot: couldn’t have planned it better myself.
Our days were consumed by reading (I polished off Beautiful Boy and [...]
There must be a shortage of 5 year olds in Florida because they are flying them down by the boeing-full. After having my seat kicked, and subsequently a candid discussion about child rearing with the boy’s mother, we grounded the bird just in time for a 45 minute wait at baggage claim.
After collecting my things [...]
As one could gather from my frustrated twitter stream last night I didn’t make my flight to Miami. After a less then pleasent discussion with the booking agent I made arrangements for a new flight out this morning.
So, in a few hours I will be on the ground in Miami, hanging with my brother Daniel, [...]
LG and Tierra are out today in search of housing for yours truly and Will “the thrill” Crosswell.
Here is a pic from their adventure.
On the advice of counsel (a marriage counselor to be exact) I have been advised to take down any pictures ridiculing LGs percieved difficulty parking: hence no more photo.
After something of a late start LG and I had a great brunch over at Tunnicliffs, Eggs Florentine, French Toast and Fresh Fruit. Then we made an afternoon of walking around the National Mall, checking out the monuments before walking up to Chinatown to do some shopping and have a cup of coffee.
Now were back [...]
A new international trailer is out for the Watchmen movie with some new footage.
Just got seated on my flight back to DC. Should be back by about 1.
Have to get home and clean up before LG arrives. After that I’m supposed to head over to a Christmas party for the law firm we use.
Should be a nice little weekend, I’m happy to have Lindsey back.
I’m down in Atlanta for the day with Charlie and Esther meeting with WeTheCitizens about the next 6 months of Storm for the CRNC, and where we think the system needs to be.
Today I’m playing with http://www.govit.com/: A site that lets you voice your opinion on legislation before congress. Whats better, you can log in using your Facebook account.
Also, I’ve just signed up for Evernote, and added the desktp and iPhone apps. We’ll see how that goes.
Just got back from lunch with a friend on the Hill, had an interesting chat about the state of the RNC Chairman’s race.
Also, came across this little gem from the Obama team. Not a bad idea, lets see how they use it.
Today I’m investigating zhiing: a Location based service and brightkit (not brightkite): a twitter tool box.
After an investment of an afternoon I have the following synopsis:
Zhiing offers a non soc-net version of location based communication. Its not abot your friends on the service, its just about friends. You want them where you are, zhiing helps [...]
Check out this awesome video, word from Robert Bluey is it captivated Harvard’s Freshman Congressional class.
I use Brightkite a lot. You should too, its like twitter + location, and it feeds into your other services. Sign up, it rocks.
Had a pretty solid weekend, nothing over the top. Friday I put a little card game together with friends, it ran pretty late but everyone had a good time. Saturday we went out to celebrate Charlie’s taking the LSATs and meandered around Dupont for a while.
I ran into a girl I knew from Highschool (small [...]
Grabbed dinner with Tierra and Will last night at Old Glory, awesome BBQ. Then headed back to the house. Will, both Andy Coopers, and Esther were in attendance as we watched some football and relaxed. Good night.
Just got back to DC. Had dinner with Will, Charlie, Cooper, and Harell. Went to Etete out in the U Street corridor for some awesome Ethiopian, then retired back to the house to hang out. Closed out the night watching WSOP with Will, now I’m ready to crash. Good to be back in D.C.
I’ve spent some time today teaching myself Photoshop, as the new CS4 is out it seemed like a worthwhile endeveour as this is gives me the maximum amount of time before the next release. I’m a novice, so be nice, but I have managed thus far to correct the following photo:
In Syracuse, NY today and tomorrow with LG. We are currently hanging in her apartment. working on our respective shenanigans. Anyone following my brightkite feed will notice that we automobiled ourselves to this upstate locale, which was a 5 hour cruise through the bleak mediated by a couple stops for gas and fluids and a [...]
Some time ago i converted LG over to Macs. Needless to say she has never looked back, and I get a kick out of her stories about talking up her new comp with classmates and that sense of pity, like looking at a confused kindergartner eating glue off of the lefty scissors, that we feel [...]
