Jake's walk - the real story

Here’s what really happened on the walk today – this is only one of the puddles – there were two others.

Really there was also this one….

and this one…

Here are 100 of my my favorite photos from 2009. There will be changes made to this site in January of 2010. No need to worry – the photo of the week will be around another 52 weeks. Here’s a link to the 2009 Photo of the Week Album.

Data recovered from melted Columbia disk- msnbc.com

This guy trained me back in the day at Ontrack – pretty impressive.

Data recovered from melted Columbia disk- msnbc.com: “Jon Edwards often manages what appears impossible. He has recovered precious data from computers wrecked in floods and fires and dumped in lakes.

Now Edwards may have set a new standard: He found information on a melted disk drive that fell from the sky when space shuttle Columbia disintegrated in 2003.”

Still taking pictures

I’m still trying to decide the best way to post pictures to this site. I’ve started using Flickr more, but I’m a big google fan. I’ve thought of having a separate blog for photos alone or just posting everyone to the main page….maybe a poll would be appropriate.

The Life of Riley

During the baptism yesterday, the pastor made a reference to “The Life of Riley” and everybody in the church laughed. Naturally I thought it was the Sports Illustrated guy he was talking about, but upon further review, I found out what he was really talking about.

The Life of Riley – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: “The Life of Riley”

Here’s the reference I knew:

SI.com: “RICK REILLY, 49, is in his 23rd year as a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. He has been voted National Sportswriter of the Year 11 times, including this year. He is the author of the weekly ‘Life of Reilly’ column, which runs on the last page of SI.”
