You might have noticed that drozmonkey.com was down since Saturday night. The short story is that my web host sent out an email at 4 PM which said that night they were moving ALL of their web hosting to new Quad-core Xeon servers. The email said that there would be limited down-time and I wouldn’t have to change a thing. Sounds [...]
I don’t have anything against cats, but I doubt anyone had any misconceptions that I’m a cat person. However, Livy’s great aunts on the Kane side are cat people and apparently Livy may be as well. When Aunt Patti sent Livy a birthday email with a cat video link, from a french website no less, [...]
We haven’t been real active lately but hopefully that will be turning around. Jenny and the girls have all been sick but everyone is feeling better now thankfully. It might take a while for use to catch up on all of our blogging and photos (we still haven’t put up Christmas photos), but here is [...]
We recently got AT&T Uverse Internet and TV, including a DVR, which was something new for us. The DVR is pretty handy because it lets you easily schedule your favorite shows to record so you can watch them later. This can lead to some dangerous combinations since one of my favorite shows is Alton Brown’s “Good Eats”. [...]
Halfway To Crazy But Making Good Time
1 Comment Published by drozmonkey February 26th, 2008 in Day to DaySome of you might consider me all the way crazy, but they only call it a half marathon because it’s only 13.1 miles. In case you hadn’t heard, this year I trained to run the 3M Half Marathon here in Austin. I started seriously training in October and  worked up to the mileage. I found a cool [...]
It’s nothing personal, nor political, but seriously you need to be quiet. While Jenny started Livy’s bath I had been browsing the web and came across a video of the Cobert Report covering Ron Paul in a recent debate. Well, without going into detail let’s just say that there was an emergency in the bath. [...]
but we’re back. We put up November and December photo albums to tide you over until we can get an udpate on the blog. I also updated the software here on drozmonkey.com which I anticipated being a major ordeal but everything went smoothly. If you look closely you might find a few things different around here [...]
Is That Your Best Arguement?
1 Comment Published by drozmonkey December 19th, 2007 in Day to Day, TechnologyWe recently saw a new “Get a Mac” TV commercial that made Jenny and I look at each other and say, huh? It was their “Misprint” ad where ‘PC’ is calling PC World magazine to correct the fact that in a recent article they said that the MacBook Pro was the fastest laptop that they have [...]
A couple of months ago a buddy got his new iMac delieved to work. He let us watch as he unboxed it and booted it for the first time. Apple knows what they are doing when it comes to the initial user experience. It automatically tried to detect the wireless mouse and keyboard and when it [...]
In case you haven’t been watching our photo albums closely, I figured I’d embed the video we made of us putting up our Christmas tree this year. Since we are always up in Nebraska for Christmas it doesn’t make much sense to have a live tree so we went ahead and got an artificial one [...]
