Well, like I mentioned back in January , one of my major personal goals for this year has been to complete my first marathon. I started training back in December and followed Hal Hidgon's novice training program . I only missed a few runs here and there...

My wife and I did the annual Ogden Valley triathlon over the weekend... This was the pic just before the race. I was a swimmer growing up so that was the easiest part for me personally. I was in about 6th or 7th place (in my age group) coming out of the...

I leave for Redmond tonight and will be on the Microsoft campus through Friday attending some meetings with the Connected Systems Division (at the MS conference center). In fact, a bunch of us from Pluralsight will around campus this week including Keith...

I've been busy. One of my craziest summers ever. Now that it's winding down, the kids are back in school, and I'm finding comfort in the routine, I figured it was time for an update. My summer was full of outdoor activities, sporting events, family projects...

My little girl (#5) was born about ten days ago and my life has changed significantly since then. When I tell people I already have four children, they say "oh, nothing to worry about then…you're a seasoned pro!" I think I even started to convince myself...

Our newest addition , Emma Teresa, arrived last Thursday without complications thankfully. She's a beautiful little girl who keeps bringing smiles to our faces. We want to thank everyone who has reached out for your support and concern -- it means a lot...

I'm a little late to the iPod game so this may be old news to some of you… I finally decided it was worth figuring out how to play videos from my iPod on a TV. This will be especially nice for hotel rooms. Here's how you do it . You probably already have...

Speaking of new family additions , another one that I'm excited about is my new MacBook Pro . I've been a loyal IBM Thinkpad user for years, but frankly, I was getting bored. I don't really have any Thinkpad complaints other than it's not very exciting...

I taught a course in Maine last week and decided to bring some lobsters home with me. I bought 10 big boys downtown where they packaged 'em up in seaweed and ice packs for the flight home. Then, we had a big lobsterfest at my house on Saturday. It was...

This was one of the highlights of the PDC for me. I was hoping someone would bootleg it for others to enjoy, and they did ! (conjurs up that hilarious Seinfeld episode). If you haven't seen Napoleon Dynamite , you should rent it right away, but only if...

A few posts ago I announced that I was going to retire my vanity email address due to an overload of spam. A reader suggested that I just point it to GMail and let it filter the spam for me. I had received an invite to GMail quite a while ago but never...

When I got home from PDC and plugged my laptop back into my home network, I got nothing. No network love. I could get an IP address, but it couldn't see the other machines on my network, and nothing else could see it (by name). After spending a few hours...

This may be old news to some of you… Fritz sent me this link the other day as we were raving about Google, right after installing Google Talk for the first time. Fwiw, I'm a huge fan of all things Google (search, mail, talk, earth, etc) because everything...
