Me and Cats

wvpv — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:17:29 +0000

I know it’s weird but I’ve been thinking a lot lately about some of the cats we had when I was growing up. We had lots of cats. We did live on a farm after all. We had dogs, too, but I always liked the cats better. Some of our cats I didn’t like, but for the most part, I’m a cat guy. Here’s a rundown of some of them (because I know you are just dying for the details):

Columbus “Lumbus” (all black) — Lumbus was the first cat I can remember. Mom said he discovered the kitchen before his eyes were even open. He turned out to be our oldest cat ever. It wasn’t pretty when he got old and started losing teeth and control of himself. I think Mom finally took him to the vet and had him put to sleep. We buried him in the wind-row under a stump.
Freckles (calico) — Freckles was a very friendly cat. She had quite the motor. I liked her a lot. She disappeared one day. A few weeks later I discovered that she had gotten run over on I-35.
Pastel (white with light and dark gray spots) — Pastel was dad’s cat. She came from a cat named Hooker at the Wichita Historical Museum where my dad use to work (as part of the Oakland Avenue Craftsmen). She was Dad’s shop cat. She would jump from my dad’s workbench into his arms. And, Pastel would pee in the toilet. Seriously. I witnessed it firsthand and, as far as I know, my parents never trained her to do it.
Douglas (white with large gray spots) — Douglas was my all time favorite cat. He was a rumpy-riser manx. We got him from a family friend–Benson. Benson told us his mother and siblings had been killed by a coyote. He was so tiny that we had to feed him milk from a dropper. He grew up to be huge. Sadly, he got run over on 87th street. I vividly remember our neighbor Joanie picking his lifeless body off the dirt road as I watched from my second story bedroom window. It was pretty devastating for me as a kid.
Shrimpy (gray and white tabby) — Shrimpy was a dimple-rumpy manx. Mom says he was bigger than Douglas.
Toes (orange and white tabby) — He had extra ones on each foot. He was a really mean tomcat. He tore up all of our other cats. He lived in our hay loft and pooped everywhere. Every time I saw him I threw something at him. Rocks, sticks, basketballs, etc.
Shorty — I don’t remember a whole lot about Shorty except he was a manx. Where my parents live it wasn’t uncommon to find abandoned cats on the side of the road. I think Shorty was one of those.
Purrky (gray and white tabby) — I always get Purrky an Doodles mixed up. One of them was OK and one was really annoying — like meowing all the time, hanging on the screen door and trying to get in the house all the time. Both had lots of kittens.
Doodles (gray and white tabby) — see above.
Wacko (orange and white tabby) — I guess Wacko would sleep in the chicken barn on top of a pig at night. I don’t really remember.
Pearl (white) — Pearl was bright white. She got some kind of cancer and died a few years ago.
Gusto “Gus” (black and gray tabby) — My parents still have Gus. He hates everyone. Mom says he’s mellowing out. I don’t buy it

So there you have it. My history with cats. I’m sure I missed some.

Some of my favorite software and websites

wvpv — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 18:16:44 +0000

image courtesy of explodingdog.com

iTunesKeys – Since I have a Dell SK-8135 keyboard at home and work, being able to use the media buttons run iTunes is nice.
DropBox – Just started using this to share files between computers now that I have a new notebook. it’s pretty handy, I must say.
Daum Blue Firefox Theme – I think I’ve finally found a Firefox theme that I like.
HootSuite – This online Twitter client is excellent, except for the Ping.Fm integration sends @replies. It should be interesting how all of the Twitter clients handle the new Twitter list functionality.
VLC – This media player is like a Swiss Army knife. It plays everything. And yes, you can have it play full screen on a second monitor by default. The “f” hotkey sets it to full screen. It does simple video conversions, too.
Jing – Done a couple of screencasts with this bad boy. Very nice.
Google Wave – I was a little frustrated that it took so long to get an invite. I think Wave has a bunch of potential. I do agree with some that instant collaboration has it’s drawbacks.
IETester – Excellent for cross-browser testing. Yes, people still do that.
FileHippo.com Update Checker – I’m a little anal about keeping my software up to date. I run this, like, once a week.
Notepad++ – I don’t really want to ever use the standard Windows Notepad again. Macro recording functionality and code highlighting is nice for the quick edit.
Irfanview – Did you know that Irfanview can open multipage PDFs and convert them to single page with a watermark? Now you do. There’s a reason why Irfanview is always on my favorites list. It’s amazing.
MozBackup – Need to move all of your Firefox settings from one computer to another? Use this.
Launchy I like Launchy. It seems weird sitting at a computer that doesn’t have it. If you want to use Win-Space as your hotkey and you have Google Desktop installed, do this.

when I was a kid I saved my money and bought a freestyle bike

a silver dyno compe with a rotor

it was sweet

my friend jeremy and i built sweet ramps with my dad’s tools

we…i crashed a lot

jeremy’s bike didn’t have a rotor, but his brakes worked better

i subscribed to freestylin’ magazine

i drew pictures of dennis mccoy

saw a freestyle bike show in a parking lot

amazing

i bought some sweet dyno fingerless gloves

and a vision street wear shirt

wore the t-shirt to school one day

the skaters called me a poser

i don’t think i wore that shirt again

and i started liking computers more than my sweet dyno

Garage Sale Lego Motherload Reveal

wvpv — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 21:34:14 +0000

So my wife, daughter, sister-in-law and I headed out on “neighborhood garage sale Saturday” in Blue Springs, MO. My son was on a kids mission retreat. We found a garage sale that had a couple of Lego things on a table. My daughter picked them up. We took them to the lady to make the purchase and she asked if we liked Lego stuff.

Uh-yeah.

She pulled out several plastic bags full of Lego goodies. She said something about how she just wants to get rid of them and that her son doesn’t really play with them anymore. We all started digging for money in our pockets and purses.

My daughter nearly started hyper-ventilating.

We walked away whispering about what a steal it was.

We went back a few minutes later and bought the rest of them.

We spent a total of $18.50 for this:

4506 – Deep Sea Predators
4742 – Alpha Team Chill Speeder
4744 – Alpha Team Thunder Tracker
4748 – Alpha Team Ogel’s Mountain Fortress
7648 – Mars Mission Mobile Mining Unit
7697 – Mars Mission Claw Tank Ambush
7770 – Aqua Raiders Deep Sea Treasure Hunter
7771 – Aqua Raiders Anger Ambush
7772 – Aqua Raiders Lobster Strike
7775 – Aqua Raiders Aquabase Invasion
8272 – Technic Snowmobile
8646 – Racers Speed Slammer Bike

From what I calculated from various sources around teh interwebs, that’s about $517.00 worth of Lego loot.

Here’s the big reveal to my son:

Here’s some more pics on our Flickr page.
