This weekend I went sailing with my dad in the San Juans.
We left mid day on friday and found ourselves battling a northwest breeze at about 20 knots. That settled down to about 10 by mid afternoon and we had a nice close hauled jaunt from the south end of Lummi Island up to a [...]

Weekend Update
October 2, 2006 – 12:42 pm
This weekend was a blast.
Friday night brought Critical Mass which was fun, although this months gathering was marred by forced religion. A topic for another day perhaps… I got the the monthly Midnight Greenlake Race a few minutes after the start so was able to serve only in an administrative role, which is probably fine [...]
Clooney for President
September 26, 2006 – 11:18 am

A few months ago I travelled to Utah to go skiing with the [...]

Early Experiences as an Independent Contractor
August 6, 2006 – 11:43 am
So i started my first “career job” a couple weeks back as an independent web contractor. I’m currently working for LUX Media doing XHTML/CSS layouts and then connecting them to the the content management system we use (cmsms).
My biggest fear going into this was that my technical skills would not be up to snuff, [...]
