I just finished watching The Cove and am at a loss for words but still wanted to post something about it. In April 2007, I blogged about this YouTube video on the Taiji dolphin slaughter. Well, there is now a documentary out that covers the issue. It is an award-winning film and does an amazing [...]

Here is a video I made of this July’s trip to Mt. Rainier, Washington with Dave. It has been a while since I’ve posted much, so hopefully this will make up for it. More posts to come in the near future!

I recently received an email from one of my Social Justice and Peace Studies professors posing a few questions to graduates of the program to see what they are doing with the degree. I thought I’d post my response here for future reference.
2. What you’ve done since graduating
Graduating left a very big question mark looming [...]

I’ve been a bit AWOL when it comes to this blog, so I thought I’d post an entry summarizing a few things I’ve been up to lately.
Yoga
Rita and I just finished 8 weeks of Yoga (once a week, every Tuesday). We’ve wanted to find something that we can do together on a regular basis and [...]

Obama Girl just put out a new video with Obama, Bush, and the Clintons as Miis. It is one of the funniest videos I’ve seen in a while. I’m not sure if it’s b/c I’m a PoliSci nerd (there are a lot of political inside jokes) or what, but this thing had me cracking up.
[If [...]

Each week I browse through hundreds of articles on my RSS feed (find out what RSS is here). Many are not very interesting, while others are life-changing. I’ve decided to start a weekly post that lists the top articles I’ve read around the net that week–I’ll call it Around the Web (ATW). Most have to [...]

I will admit to having a mild case of procrastination (when it comes to some things, I am a huge procrastinator). The crazy thing about procrastination is that the reason we procrastinate is to relieve ourselves of some perceived pain that would be endured to complete the task at hand. However, in reality, we will [...]

My recent post on the “Out of a Job Yet? Keep Buying Foreign” bumper stickers caused a bit of controversy, as I expected. As somewhat of a follow-up to that post, I’d like to pose the question, does buying locally really matter to people?
I ask this because on my way home for lunch last week [...]

It has been a few years since I’ve skied (yes, that is the past-tense of ski, I asked Google). This year I purchased a set of skis from a friend at work ($100 including bindings for a nice pair of skis!) and promised myself I would get back into the sport. Well, I have now [...]

Alright, so this past Friday wasn’t “cool,” it was frickin’ freezing! At -21 centigrade and -32 with the wind-chill, it wasn’t one of the nicest days of the year. However, to make up for it, the sun put on quite a nice display.
On my way to work in the morning, I noticed two bright, rainbow-ish [...]
