We Said, “Hello World.” They Answered

December 14th, 2009 Robert 1 comment

Recently,  I have had to moderate a bunch of comments (all of which has been spam).  What’s interesting (and some what ironic) is that there has been three different comments on the “Hello World” post in Russian.  I used the google translator and alta-vista for kicks, but I don’t think the translation comes out very good.

I do not know what their dog bites, but now the exchange is practically impossible

If the Russians continue to attack us with canned meat, I will delete the post they are attracted to :)

While drying the dishes this evening, I cleanly broke a plate in two halves! I really need to be more careful when I shake the excess water off the dish… :(

Did you realize that if you take the “L” and “e” out of life, you get if? And if you take the “n” and the “c” out of pancake you get a misspelled morsel of food. I figure its better just to not take letters out of words

M-I-L

September 19th, 2009 Steve 6 comments

So Japan has entered their string of holidays called “Silver week”. Now normally we would be visiting Hitomi’s mother in her home town, however because of our recent happenings, she has insisted that we stay at home, and instead she has come to visit. As with comes with most visits of the mother-in-law, I end up getting frustrated and go to computer to find something to do.
Why do I get frustrated? Perhaps because I can’t get more than a few words out of my mouth before the subject is changed to something completely different and I instantly get a rush of frustration initiated by being cut off mid-sentence. Now if this were several years ago, I would understand because the Japanese coming out of my mouth was quite slow… but no. Even now that Japanese flows from my mouth, I still get interrupted mid-sentence for some unimportant reason. Family is family though. Oh well.

Robert needs to clean his desk…

September 15th, 2009 Robert 4 comments

I have been observing the effect of entropy on my desk area recently…..in other words…it’s a mess.   The chaos has amassed to a point where it is very hard to do anything productive.  I will continue to move the new Baxter Online forward as soon as I can get this mess cleaned up.  I plan to add more content, and develop a custom layout for the site as soon as I can.

Sorry for being so slow, Steve…
