The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
Thursday, 28 August 2003 9:40 A GMT-05
Last night we went to see The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly at the new AFI Theater in Silver Spring, MD. This was only the second time I’ve been to this place, but I have a feeling (or at least a hope) that I will be coming here a lot more ofte

Now Serving 1000
Wednesday, 27 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
According to Sitemeter, I have now just passed the 1000 visitor mark! Woo hoo! Not bad for someone who's been blogging for just a few months. Ok, it's not earth-shattering, I know. According to my very unscientific analysis, most of the peopl

Caffein Culture and Wifi Wanderings
Sunday, 24 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
My caffein-addled brain is on a tear. I often get this way, even when I'm just drinking decaf. Something about coffee sets my mind in motion. Caffeine just adds some speed. I have been out all morning (and part of the afternoon) wondering my

Well, quite a gap in blog entries, so I do apologize. This week at work has been incredibly busy and my freelance jobs have been keeping me busy after work so I've had very little free time! I'm hoping things will calm down a bit and that I'll be

Six Great Scientists
Sunday, 17 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
As a self-professed “fan” of science, I snatched this audio book up from Audible.com. It was very promising, as it concentrated its 8.5 hours on six renowned scientists, most of whom I’d read about before, but not all.
On the one ha

28 Days Later
Thursday, 14 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
As you might have detected from the title of my blog, I am a big fan of the movie 12 Monkeys. Well, when I first heard about 28 Days Later I just got the feeling that I needed to see it. It was about a future (or present?) where there was

Hungary
Wednesday, 13 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
When I came back from the USSR, I was faced with having to find a job since I was at that point done with college. As luck would have it, the organization that I went through for my study abroad, CIEE, was losing a program assistant for their Easte

Estonia
Monday, 11 August 2003 10:53 A GMT-05
One of the many 36-hour trips via train we took when in the USSR was to Tallinn, Estonia. A fellow classmate, Matt, had helped host an Estonian women’s soccer team that had come to his home town in Minnesota, so we had people who could show u

Travel Photos
Monday, 11 August 2003 10:17 A GMT-05
A friend of mine, Scott Meyer, recently set up a website with a bunch of pictures he's taken over the last couple of years on a few trips - Belize, US, and Spain and Portugal. Some very nice shots.
I will post some shots of my more recent trip

Bobos in Paradise
Thursday, 7 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
Bobos in Paradise, by David Brooks is a fascinating socio-political-economic look at the upper middle-class American. “Bobos,” or Bohemian Bourgeoisie, are, as their name implies, a compromise - or if you prefer, an oxymoron. They are

Convergence Ramblings
Wednesday, 6 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
Gizmodo has a few references to phones (from British Telecom, Ericson and Verizon, and Motorola and NEC) that are being developed by various companies that are to have Wifi capability and even designed to do voice over IP. For those who don’t kn

Latvia
Tuesday, 5 August 2003 8:36 A GMT-05
While “studying” at Leningrad State University, I went to Latvia twice. Once it was on one of those 30-hour stints via two overnight train rides with a few fellow students. All I remember from that trip was that it rained the whole ti

El Gavilan
Monday, 4 August 2003 11:59 P GMT-05
I was trying to find an interesting place to have dinner the other night in Silver Spring, MD. I ended up deciding on a Salvadoran/Mexican Restaurant on Flowers Avenue called El Gavilan, even though I’m not a big fan of Mexican – at least not t

Cinemania
Sunday, 3 August 2003 3:14 P GMT-05
It seems appropriate that the first movie I've seen in about three months was a movie about cinephiles, or cinepheliacs, or cinamaniacs. People who are obsessive-compulsive about seeing movies to the extent that it becomes their life!
