Lady: I don’t want to leave Ohio. It reminds me a bit of Texas except it’s colder.

GnR review

“A song like “Shackler’s Revenge” is initially average, until you get to the solo—then it becomes the sonic equivalent of a Russian robot wrestling a reticulating python.”

Co-worker Aaron: You know, I thought we spent our years in college so that we wouldn’t have to be out in the field turning wrenches on a Sunday afternoon.

A lot of thought goes into the design of fonts.

Here’s a little write up describing design techniques that we probably all take for granted.

Brian: What I don’t understand is that Zorro is able to be totally stealthy… yet he’s wearing spurs. Its, like, dude. All this would be so much easier without the jingly accessories.

Favorites and About.
Author: mike d.
Oct 31st

Dearest Readers,

I want to vamp up two sections of this website. The first is ‘favorite posts.’ If you look at the bar on the left and scroll down you’ll come to a list of favorite posts. Do any of you have any favorite posts that you think I should include in the list?

The second section is the About me page. Right now it’s passable, but not awesome. It definitely needs new photos. Any other suggestions?

Rock,
Mike D.

Excess Texas

December 12th, 2006 by mike d. in travel, Work

currently eating: ribs.

Today we finally did some good work. Unfortunately, it came at the most inopportune time. We started doing work at 4:00pm Texas Time and stopped at about 8pm Texas time.

So I was unable to participate in the four our study session that was taking place back in CT from 5 ’till 9.

Extremely lame.

So tomorrow morning I get to wake up at 5am, hit the road to visit one last customer before my 10am flight where I get 4 final hours to cram as much Dynamics into my brain as possible.

ugh. Posts will resume on Thursday.

Ruth’s Chris

December 12th, 2006 by mike d. in climbing, A Day In The Life..., Work

currently eating: steak

Today was a feast of fat. Breakfast was a typical buffet: eggs, potatos, cream of rice… Lunch consisted of a Royal Red Robin Burger, whose toppings include bacon, lettuce, a fried egg, and grease. It was delicious. Dinner was a new york strip steak with a side of spinach and pecan pie for dessert from Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse. Wow? yes. steak served in a platter of sizzling butter? yes please. in regards to food, today was ideal.

In regards to work, today was not ideal. I did very little. Really, I did nothing at all outside of move some wires in a terminal block and dust off our equipment. A few of our team mates weren’t ready for us yet, so I paced from about 6am to 4pm. Tomorrow should be better.

Also, check out Pete’s climbing pictures from our adventures at Main Cliff.
