This site is not about animal husbandry.

26Jan07

…Just to allay any fears out there for potential employers, and, apparently my Intro to Design 2 instructor might have. The reason its called YakShaving is posted on the about section to the right.
Great. Now my site is going to show up when people Google “animal husbandry”. Dang-it.

The War on Terror vs The War on Poverty

20Jan07

It’s nice to put things into perspective sometimes, as this NY times article did for me last week.
The war on terror has been estimated to cost the United States $1.2 million.  Just kidding.  It’s $1.2 billion.   Nope, gotcha again.  $1.2 trillion.  Right.   Its kind of hard to even fathom, huh?

Now live on WordPress… Just have to clean up a bit.

18Jan07

MT’s gotta go. Wordpress coming soon!

As most of my friends know, I don’t watch television. It’s not that I’m trying to be pretentious, but its because most of the stuff on the TV makes me flaccid with rage.
When I occassionally hit the gym for a quick workout, I am unfortunately exposed, unknowingly to the depths of the […]

Back in the saddle

10Jan07

Well, the fabulous 3 week holiday break comes to a close, and I’m reminded again of reality as I stepped out of the subway here in Chicago, where it is easily 25 degrees colder than it was in Philadelphia.
Global warming and its effects are abominable, but I could definitely get used to El Nino if […]
