Read this article about Craigslist‘s founder Craig Newmark. I have to say that I respect the guy’s way of doing business on the web. What’s most impressive to me is that when everybody else seems to be selling their sites to big media, Craigslist doesn’t seem concerned with selling out for big money – which they very likely could, considering how popular it is.
This article just made my day. I’m not a beer snob by any measure, but there are some forms of beer that I just won’t waste my time drinking, if given the choice. It seems that the Germans feel the same way and I applaud them for it!
This entry wishes it had a full pint in his hand right now!
I just received word from my brother that his second child has been born. Her name is Lily Mae and she’s adorable! 7 pounds, 10 ounces, & 20 inches long… a nice healthy baby!

Papa Danny & baby Lily getting some much needed rest.
I just keep reading more and more about the types of arguments that are being used in support of the global warming theory Al Gore and the likes are trying to push at us. Again, I’d like to clarify that I’m not saying that global temperatures aren’t rising – I just don’t think that it’s because of what so many are trying to claim it to be from.
UPDATE EDIT: I have since realized that my thinking on this topic was seriously flawed. Climate Change is definitely a real thing and it is for sure being made worse by human activities. I’m keeping the original posts up, as I think it’s important for people to see that opinions can change after new information is learned.
This entry skipped along its merry little way to la-la land.
Is it just me that gets annoyed with all the anti-germ, anti-bacterial, sterilized crap people seem so hung up on lately? Well, as I suspected, it turns out that living in such a squeaky clean environment may actually be bad for people’s health. Read about it for yourself.
To me this just makes sense. Sure, basic hygiene and cleanliness makes sense to prevent common diseases and the likes. But to contantly sterilize and decontaminate your home in fear of germs, microbes, and icky stuff means that you’re preventing your body (and that of your children’s) from learning how to deal with them on it’s own.
