This was Chloe’s first year to go out for Halloween and she loved it. She wanted to keep going even though her hands were freezing. The weather was nice enough but the wind was chilly when we went out, around 5:30. Her bunny costume kept the rest of her nice and toasty though.
She made off [...]

I haven’t seen a motherboard with popped capacitors in a while, but a computer came in today that just wasn’t turning on anymore. I tested the power supply first and that was fine, which typically means bad motherboard or very rarely, bad CPU. I checked the capacitors on the motherboard and sure enough, most of [...]

Even though our house was new when we moved in, the kitchen is very basic. Not enough counter space, not enough cupboards and no place to install a dishwasher. I have some ideas for an addition that would solve most of our current kitchen problems but even that pales in comparison to the [...]

Based on his new series of novels, AR Horvath’s Birth Pangs Role Playing Game is like a blast from the past. Literally from the past, back before we could even get the internet around here.

Christmas time again, and like every year I just don’t know what to buy for the people on my list. None of my family are into gadgets and electronics so that makes things a little harder. I could take the easy route and buy booze or body shop supplies for my father and [...]

Can’t believe it’s already been 3 years since we bought our house. That means it’s renewal time and since interest rates have risen a bit, my overall payment has increased by about $100 a month. The cheapest monthly rate I could get was by renewing for a 5 year term, so that’s what [...]

Morphing pictures can be pretty fun. Turn a toaster into a microwave or one person into another person. The Morpheus Photo-Morpher software is very easy to use although I’ve heard a few people say they just couldn’t get the hang of it. I’ve decided to do a little tutorial here on how [...]

There’s another dungeon crawling, hack & slashing, loot gathering game coming out soon. It’s currently in beta testing and the servers are up running 24/7 so it shouldn’t be long now. Looks like it will be similar to Dungeon Runners but with a little less humor and a few more character choices. As with most [...]
