FiOS Installation Progress… 2%

November 8th, 2007 · No Comments

The last couple of days has been really foggy in the morning when we drove to work, and the traffic has been horrible…  I guess it’s true what they say, Californians can only drive in sunny weather.  The other morning it took us 30 or 40 extra minutes to drive to work and there wasn’t [...]

Headers Changed

October 18th, 2007 · No Comments

Been trying to change the look of the site for a while, but I always fall asleep working on it.  Finally got the new headers done, and you can see Lorelai added to our header rotation – the picture was taking as part of a fun shoot we had a couple of weekends ago.  The [...]

FiOS Installation Progress… 1%

October 12th, 2007 · No Comments

Took this picture not too long after the initial notice, which was like weeks ago. (Our street got spray painted) Got me all excited for a couple minutes. But then they haven’t done anything since then. I guess, we will get FiOS and they will probably try to push the TV service to us too. [...]

These are pretty sweet looking, and I would think they are good to watch TV shows or movies on the go.  Maybe?

Tagging with WordPress 2.3

September 28th, 2007 · No Comments

Found a nice site that details how to use one of the new functions of WordPress 2.3: Tagging.  Turned out that it’s not that hard, since all you have to do is to add a line of PHP code calling the_tags(); function.  You can get the whole detail here.  Now I just need to remind [...]

FiOS!?!?

September 28th, 2007 · 2 Comments

We got a notice jammed to our door the other day from Verizon saying that they will be digging around our neighborhood (Chino Hills) for a while for fiber optic installation so please excuse the mess.  Never mind the road, fiber internet???  That’s awesome news, if it’s true…  Is it Verizon?  Or are you just [...]

JnJ System Update

September 25th, 2007 · No Comments

We have updated the site to WordPress 2.3, which includes a bunch of good stuff that I’ll probably never use. But no matter, it’s the latest. As usual, I just gunned it and didn’t really do much of a backup, which is generally a very bad idea, but the site still appears to be operational, [...]

Thunder Horn

August 1st, 2007 · No Comments

This is simply awesome… I am going to install one of these bad boys once Lorelai is ready for her first bike. Ride a bike? Cars not giving you the respect you deserve? Add the Thunder Horn, the electronic bike horn that boops at 115 decibels. In comparison, a Jet Plane is 120db, a chainsaw [...]
