Web Quotes and Counterpoints VIII – The Summer Cleaning [toblog] Edition
A while back I started a huge digital cleaning session. My e-mail inbox was well into the thousands, so I started archiving older messages. It’s unbelievable how many random web sites, mostly social network betas, I signed up for that I only used once or twice. The worst is ones where they constantly e-mail you […]
Flight of the Charles River Ducks
A little over a week ago I was hanging out at the Charles River shore on the Boston side during a particularly nice and sunny day. While chilling underneath a tree taking in the great view I noticed a few ducks also just chilling a few feet in front of me. After taking a few […]
My 2008-09 Celtics Season Ticket Schedule
A few days ago the Boston Celtics released their schedule for the upcoming 2008-2009 NBA season. Today an e-mail arrived in my inbox from the C’s announcing the release of their half-season schedules.

Spider Squirrel, Spider Squirrel, Does Whatever a Spider Squirrel Does
While biking behind one of the Boston University buildings Friday afternoon, this spider squirrel caught my attention. Here’s the squirrel just chilling while it observes what I’m doing: As it realizes I’m not a threat, it goes on it’s way, doing whatever a spider squirrel does, which apparently means running on this ledge in a […]
3 Cool Signs
As I twittered earlier today, I finally bit the bullet and sent Yahoo $25 to upgrade my flickr account to the Pro version.

Super Cyclist Troopers
