mikeroweWORKS

Hello Mike Rowe, I’m trying to figure out how I can support you in what you do. I’ve already bought the poster and have it hanging in my office. I tell everyone who will listen about mikeroweWorks, but I would like to do more. I’m a college educated guy working in a less-than-collegial field. I…

We need to start demanding better.

I go to work everyday. I listen to the news on the radio. I get angry. Don’t you? Why not? The drivers around me driving well over the speed limit, putting me in danger. They can’t handle it. It’s obvious. They don’t look far enough ahead, zip up to the pack of cars and then…

Camping Trip!

Just got back from 3 days of pack-in camping with my lovely wife and our stalwart pooch at Yellow River State Forest in NE Iowa. Lovely trip. So much hiking, some fishing, lots of fun. And now, pictures! My 50lb pack and new hat, plus bonus Stanley. Carried that thing about 3 miles to the…

5 Networks, One Huge Waste

I haven’t been shy about my love of the Olympics. But I’m having a hard time indulging because NBC Olympics is doing such a bad job of broadcasting it. Now I’m not talking about the painful human interest packages. Or the awkward interviews. I don’t think any other network has the ability to be any…

How to Ruin the Olympics

At its best, the Olympics is a taste of what Humanity should be. All nations, all creeds, all colors coming together to compete in friendly combat. Its magical. So then you get the NBC commentators and high brass deciding that everything has to be AMAZING. Every athlete is a favorite for gold. Every record “could…

Not Hoth

OK, so everyone is freaking out about it being “so cold, bitterly cold, deadly cold” here in Iowa. It’s not even 20(F) below people. This is just winter, stop acting like idiots. Since I’m not a moron, this is how I spent my day. First things first, busting through the concrete snow at the front…

Attrition

The cold November wind blasts across the marked field This patch of earth set aside for the coming battle The frigid air howls through the tunnels Ignored by the massed ranks of modern gladiators Awaiting the call to take the field Steam erupts from mouths panting to meet their enemy To march into battle and…

MMOs and Why They Suck: Addendum

I said this could be a post in and of itself. This may look simply like a list of all the MMOs released. It isn’t, I can assure you. This is just a list of the MMOs I’ve played and there are several I regret missing out on. Many of these I still play off…

MMOs and why they suck. Part 1 Too Easy

For those that don’t know, MMO stands for Massively Multiplayer Online. For the most part, it refers to a video game played in a persistent world, housed on a server somewhere, that dozens, hundreds, thousands of people log in and out of and interact with the world and each other. They can be fantasy, sci-fi,…

I’m finishing up moving.

That’s why my projects have been on hold. I also got a bunch of new wood given to me, including an entire dining room table I’m going to cut up and turn into all kinds of stuff. Details on those in subsequent posts. Right now my shop is so full you can’t move around. That…
