Last night, I was sitting in bed watching a show, and Jess was in the bathroom doorway next to me messing with the dogs. She was giving them each a taste of toothpaste smeared on their noses (they absolutely love it; silly dogs). We had a good laugh about it, and I looked back to [...]
Along with the last “proud” announcement, I am proud to announce my new photo printer, the HP Designjet Z3100 24″ wide-format inkjet printer. The Z3100 is a ground-breaking, highly regarded printer that uses HP’s Vivera pigment inks.

This is huge news for the entire photography industry. By simply changing out the pattern and colors of the filter that sits on the sensor, the [...]
It’s natural for animals, including humans, to alter behavior in response of a perceived risk. You lock your doors, roll up windows, and maybe even turn down your stereo (trying to be as inconspicuous as possible) when you get stuck at a light in the seedy part of town. You hit the brakes instinctively when [...]
I’ve seen this Ghostbuster’s car (the Ectomobile if you want to get technical) randomly around Fort Collins for the last few months. They even honked and waved at me one day when I was pointing it out to a friend. Pretty neat car, I can only imagine how much time, creativity, and money it to [...]
I saw this on a sign at Jimmy John’s sub shop today:
