QR Code

QR (or QuickResponse) codes are everywhere in Japan, but they're just now reaching the US in large quantities. If you're looking for the next big thing for marketing departments, I have a feeling that this is going to be one of the many tools of the future.

Visit Wikipedia's page on the subject for a quick overview of the technology.

I downloaded the i-Nigma barcode reader for my Sprint Mogul and have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to install and use. Other readers you can try downloading are: QuickMark and Kaywa. Once you get a reader installed on your mobile phone, check out Kaywa's QR Code Generator!

Take a look at this code to send me a quick text message saying that you've read this page.

George Zinkhan - Tommy Lee Jones comparison

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation released sketches of the former University of Georgia professor, George Zinkhan, who is the prime suspect in the triple murder involving his wife.

Finally got everyone (Daniel, Stephen, Matt, Becca) to play volleyball! Funny thing is...the average height between us is 6'3.5" and we're called the "Itsy Bitsy Spikers". Inaugural matches (open play for seeding in the Smyrna indoor volleyball league) will be on Tuesday May 5, 2009 around 6:30pm at the Smyrna Community Center. Come on out and watch, or join a team and play!

Developing new Facebook application

Keep an eye out for a new facebook application to be released hopefully within the next few weeks. This will be my first facebook app, but definitely not the last once I learn the API. If the application is a success, I may also look at porting it over to MySpace as well. (Don't want to release details about the app just yet.)

Working the Worm!

With no kids in town, Carrie and I took the opportunity to go out and have some fun. We ended up taking it back to middle school by going to the skating rink with Christian and Emily. Then we all headed to their place to have a "pajama dance party". Needless to say, this was one memorable night.

The "lost" joke

Months ago I went golfing with Christian and his parents. While taking a break in the clubhouse before starting the back nine, Dean starts telling jokes. Of all the jokes, one had me rolling. Later that week, we were trying to remember this one particular joke and simply couldn't. Months passed and occasionally I'd ask if anyone happened to remember the joke, but no one could. Then as I'm getting home from volleyball late one night, I get a call from Christian and he says "I've got it!". I'm posting it here so that we don't forget it again next week.

The Joke
Q: How do you catch a polar bear while ice fishing?
A: Cut a hole in the ice and put 3 peas around the edge of the hole. When the polar bear comes to take a pea, you kick him in the ice hole.
(For those of you who are a little slower, "ice hole" sounds a lot like "@$$ hole")
Thanks Margaret for the correction on the joke

Not the funniest joke in the world, but it had me rolling and we sure couldn't remember it for anything.

We survived the Triathlon!

As I expected, the swim was the hardest part for me. I ran into the water with my wave of competitors and then just panicked. Once I realized that I was getting tired and couldn't just grab the wall to take a break, I swam straight for the lifeguard on the jet ski. After hanging on for a few seconds, I started off again and finally finished the swim leg in 11:23 (300 overall). (My buddy Jon "SuperFish" Doran passed me, and he started 3 minutes after me!) Once I was back on land, I got into the groove and had a decent bike leg that will definitely improve once I get some nicer components installed. (40:40, 286 overall) The run, though still not as fast as I had hoped, was my strong point and I did well on it. (24:19, 93rd overall) My goal for the race was to finish in under 1:20:00, and with a time of 1:16:21, I did that by over 3 minutes.

My goal for next year is to go under 1:05:00. I think with a little confidence in my swim, new components on the bike, and an earlier kick in the run, I'll be able to get close to one hour even.

Heramb & Hatcher Hightail Hotlips Hustle 5k

Carrie and Joani competed in the Hotlips Hustle 5k Saturday morning. Both did a great job and were moving so fast at the finish line that they almost ran directly into moving traffic! They finished in about 34:51. After the race, they even got a picture with Wedgie, the big tomato mascot of Sweet Tomatoes.

Triathlon Training

Training for my first triathlon on October 11, 2008. Going to be competing in the "Multisport Destin Sprint Triathlon". The distances are as follows: 400meter swim, 10mile bike, 3mile run. I'm a little worried about the swim, mostly because it's open water, but I should be ready for it by the time October gets here.


I've added a training log (powered by MapMyRun) to the site to keep track of my training and hopefully to inspire my buddies to register for the race as well.

Impulse basketball tourney erupts into Dance-a-Thon!

The inaugural Impulse basketball tournament was the place to be! Bets were placed and trash talk was heard all the way up to the tip-off.

At first the competition was fierce with players trading baskets and impossible shots being made left and right

Even Jeff got out there and gave a freethrow shooting clinic!

Awesome Trick Bowling Shot - I think the hardest part about this trick is knocking the nine pins down and leaving that one particular pin up.

How to import old email to Gmail

Found a post on "The Official Gmail Blog" that detailed how to pull old emails from your other email accounts to your "new" Gmail account. It also describes how to use Gmail to check and send emails from your old email accounts seemlessly until everyone figures out that you've moved to Gmail. Now everyone that has tried Gmail and liked it will be able to use it full-time without skipping a beat.

Ticketmaster fees!!

Thought I would be a cool dad and take the family to see High School Musical this summer at the Fox Theater. After checking the site, and rechecking just to make sure I wasn't seeing things, I've decided that $80/person is FREAKING RIDICULOUS! How can normal families afford to take the kids to see shows any more? On top of the $66 base charge, TicketMaster slaps you with an $11.45 "convenience" charge AND a $2.50 charge to PRINT THE TICKETS on your own computer! WHAT?!?! OK, let me get this straight. It's free if I have TM mail the tickets to me, but if I want to print the tickets on my computer, with my printer and my paper....then it costs me $2.50?

Hmmmm.....guess we won't be going to see HSM. I'd rather spend the money taking the boys somewhere like the beach, Disney, or even up into the mountains to rent a cabin or do some camping.

Prosper.com

Just made my first bid on www.prosper.com a cool site that matches people that want to borrow money with people that have money to invest/lend. I've been watching bids for a while and finally decided on contributing a little toward a loan for "Growth Capital for Green Building Company" which should earn me 11.22% APR. (edit: APR dropped to 6% due to the bidding that is happening.)
