Birthday/Fathers Day 2009

One very cool birthday gift from my daughter - I like the idea - take a classic LP that is no longer playable and convert it into a coaster - not a new idea - but I liked it anyway.

Conor Oberst and The Mystic Valley Band - Outer South

I liked this - although it did put me in the mood for some Clash http://disq.us/8v1

The next Google

Interesting post from Seth Godin on Bing :

“Google is not seen as broken by many people, and a hundred million dollars trying to persuade us that it is, is money poorly spent.”

Death of the mouse - Network World
I haven't viewed the entire deck but this looks more like a technology preview than an honest look at the "Death of the Mouse"...

Some interesting stuff here but until we get a touch screen that can be knocked off the desk, stepped on, inadvertently kicked across the floor, and still be reattached - and work - for under $50 USD...I'm just not seeing it

Wings Muzzle Hawks' Big Guns

I'm a Blackhawks fan - yesterday's 5-2 result was not specifically too good - but it's Blackhawks v Redwings - so it's going to be great - I ordered my playoffs tshirt today - I'd really like to have a Havlat jersey but - considering I live in Houston - maybe if they go all the way this time. I've got a birthday coming soon.

Owen McKibben meets Matt Furey

Wow - 2 things:
1) Having goals is a full time job and it may seriously hinder the time you have to blog - needless to say I just haven't kept up with the goals about blogging. I'm getting there but it's a journey not a destination.
2) I had a great workout last night around 8:00 that consisted of the following:

• Stairmaster - 22 Flights (4-5 min) avg HR 162
• Lat Pulldowns - (40" work/60" rest) x 5
• Stairmaster - 22 Flights (4-5 min) avg HR 162
• Bridgeing - (40" work/60" rest) x 5
• Stairmaster - 22 Flights (4-5 min) avg HR 162
• Hindu Pushups (40" work/60" rest) x 5
• Stairmaster - 22 Flights (4-5 min) avg HR 162
• Hindu Squats (40" work/60" rest) x 5
• Stairmaster - 22 Flights (4-5 min) avg HR 162

On the side - I posted elsewhere yesterday (quite boldly I might add) that I was making a domino goal of 1) Stopping work on time so that 2) I could work out on time so that 3) I be home in time to have dinner with my wife. Well, the short of a very long story is that I did all three - and I almost didn't - when it got to be near 8:00 PM I nearly bailed on the workout (if I had I'd most certainly have missed the 3rd goal and would have dined alone). Remaining committed to following through bears fruit....hmph...who knew?
