Our new(ish) hod rod(s) (err… bikes…)

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Yes, Jen and I got some hot rods.. two wheeled hot rods with pedals…

We are now the proud owners of two Specialized bikes.   Jen has a Cross Roads and I got a Hard Rock.  It’s by far the nicest bike I’ve ever ridden, though both are used and a couple years old and not top of the line by hardcore biker standards.

Anyways, we’ve been riding all over our new neighborhood and I have to say it is really fun.  We’ve set a goal of riding (most of) the Munger Trail by the end of the summer.  Sweet.  Maybe we’ll even buy some of those spandex jump suits to bike around in. :)

Jen’s got the purple-ish one and I have the white one.

I’m on Alexa.. no. 1,257,367 world wide..

Holy crap, apparently I’m the 1,257,367th most visited site in the world… or  the  the 740,255th most popular in the US.. apparently. I have  a hard time believing either of these  figures.  I know that the PHP/Nginx/Rails Post is very popular, as well as  the Google Maps and the one about how to use Rails Helpers in controllers, and finally the one about BackgrounDRB, but damn.

Anyways, pretty neat.

Usually Frown Upon this Stuff but…

Quite Possibly the most awesome music video ever. Thank you Weezer for restoring my faith in the world…

yerhot.org and Jen’s business

Monday, May 12th, 2008

jen gradOver the weekend my sister graduated from St. Mary’s. For some reason it gave me the idea of buying yerhot.org and then setting up a family portal complete with yerhot.org email for everyone. Prolly just through Gmail, but still john@yerhot.org or rebecca@yerhot.org would be pretty neat. Especially if we all end up moving around the country.. Just some thoughts.

In other news, Jen has decided to strike out on her own, say good bye to Qwest and teach voice lessons and do weddings/events full-time. I’m very happy about this, she is such a talented musician and should really be doing something musical. I think she’ll be pretty happy with it.

Just an update. Congrats Becca, you’ve worked really hard. Love ya.
