I am currently the winning bidder on Ebay for this item.

I really hope I win it. This will be a great addition to my collection!

I also just purchased one of these today. Of course, my wife says I should just exercise more and not use mechanical devices to cover up my health problems. I'm sure she is right. However, I'm about to go on a driving trip that will have me sitting in a car for as much as 30 hours. I am going to 'need' this when I get back; pun intended.

I'll take plenty of pictures on my bacation and post a nice update to the blog when I return. And, for you robbers casing my house..my nephew Charlie is house sitting for us to protect the property while we are gone.

One was from a technology stand point. Most developers of an MMO game engine might assume it would be reasonable to stream data in as a player moved around the environment. That was certainly my original design. However, once the game got into heavy beta testing there was a strong push to get eve

Ten Reasons *NOT* to become a Freemason

"Why I became (and proudly remain) an 'antient' Freemason" Well, I see no reason I cannot make a Freemason themed post. Last evening I attended a third degree at Naphtali lodge. It was my candidate being raised, my friend William Bean. It was an incredible night, especially since we had 28 Master Masons present for the event which was held at the incredible Masonic Temple in midtown Saint Louis. My friends Right Worshipful Brother Chris Neubold, Russ Tinker, Densel Webb, and Fred Statler drove down all of the way from Wentzville and Troy; over an hour drive each way. I acted as the Senior Steward and Junior Deacon for the ceremony. This was the largest gathering of Masons we have had in as long as anyone could remember for a degree. It is so very gratifying to see Naphtali growing and area members supporting the lodge. After the degree Jesse's wife Meryl provided a lovely dinner in the dining room where we shared fellowship and conversation. All of this had me thi
