Anna is about 20 weeks into pregnancy (which is just at half way) and we had an ultrasound session earlier this month. Here are the latest pics... You knew that Baby Harrelson has big feet. Here is confirmation: And here, Baby Harrelson is sucking on his/her thumb (yay, it's not a mutant and has 10 fingers and toes!): Here's a nice profile of Baby Harrelson (I think it has my nose ...
On Tuesday, I decided to try a nifty trick and use our exercise ball (basically a large blow up ball about 3 feet in diameter) for my desk chair. The benefits are that you are constantly forced to sit upright and it's good exercise for your abs, etc. So, it was a little flat and I decided to blow it up. In the process, the plastic stopper (below) blew ...

At times, I've been the loudest and most vocal advocate for web based apps and the mobile lifestyle it enables. However, as of late I've switched back to using Liferea (Linux feed reader) as my feed reader and Thunderbird as my email client. I've slowly been trying to get people to ...
Working and studying in a college environment everyday, I can't tell you how profoundly shocked and sad I am at today's shootings at Virginia Tech. Colleges and universities, of all places, should be places where young and old people alike can study, learn, walk, live and inquire without feeling the least bit threatened.
