couple weeks ago
A couple weeks ago, we had a blizzard that dumped a huge amount of snow in Lehigh Valley, PA. Here are a couple videos from the storm. I love when the snow is really deep like this. It's ashame that we don't get storms like this more often. I would love to have at least one storm a year drop at lest 18+ inches of snow on us. :) I don't have a new video of Chance running around in the snow, but ...

I love idiots
Unlike the 'idiot' in the image to the right, I love the true idiots our there that think because they have 4 twitter accounts with different names. Do these idiots think they are really 'out smarting' everyone, because they post the same thing to 4 different accounts at the same exact time.WTF!!! why waste bandwidth? These people are a waste of good air and food. Heck the food these idiots ea...
Snowy and sloppy
Boy, it was sloppy getting to work today. :( Wanted to write a little about the State of the Union from last night. Overall, I will say it seems that the Pres. Obama is trying. I think his mind is in the right spot (ie saying people have lost faith in our gov't - call it the way you see it) The problem is that Obama and all others elected to Washington, need to change. It's not the American peo...

Softball has started

Posted By: bdog on April 29, 2009 in me raw, my interests - Comments: No Comments »

Well softball started last night. We did not win, but I thought we played well. LCAO definitely has some room for improvement. I will say I love the teams grit and determination to not give up. We were down about 5 or 6 runs going into the bottom of the 7th (last inning for those don’t play softball), first 2 batters got out and then we started a come back (again). Unfortunately, we came up a bit short, but we stuck together as a team and continued to fight. We’ll get there, just have to keep plugging along it’s  a long season.

I love paranoid people :)

I came across some videos and websites recently that compare former President Bush to Hilter, Mussolini and Stalin. I just have to laugh at this. If Bush is/was a dictator, than why is he not still in control???? Oh that’s right, this is a true democracy. WOW! Have these people ever thought, that maybe decisions (whether we agree with them or not) were made with more information than is available to the general public.

This woman, Naomi Wolf, is absolutely insane. Way too far out there for me. She must live in a hole somewhere with nothing around her, because she feels that we (the people) are constantly under threat from within. Weirdo!! Get a grib lady!! Stop watching X-Files (my favorite all-time show) and watch Winnie the Pooh or Tele Tubbies. Funny thing is she’s making money of the same fears that she supposedly is exposing our gov’t of doing. My one question to her now is, Bush is out of office, who are you going blame now???

I watched a video of her, The end of America, and can’t believe the amount of people that paid (that’s right paid) to sit and listen to her. In the video, she has a recording of a ‘journalist’ that was in New Orleans after Katrina and said that he saw “an unmarked vehicle” with guys that had “M4″ guns and other “guns strapped to their legs”. Some how she comes to the conclusion that these were Blackwater paramilitary people. Does she have access to the Blackwater schedules or what. WTF!!!

My only advice to people like this is, if you think the gov’t is out to get you because you don’t believe what the president is doing is right, than get out. Go to another country where you don’t feel so paranoid. You’ll a lot better life and be happier. If you are not happy with the gov’t than make your voice heard. That is the beauty of this country. ;)

Oh yeah, one more point, if I was to think like these type of people, I better watch my back. Because I don’t believe that obama and his boy biden are making the best decisions right. SSShhhh, there’s a knock at the doo

Nice…Good night’s sleep

Posted By: bdog on April 23, 2009 in Trips - Comments: No Comments »

I got an awesome night’s sleep last night. Woke up energized and ready to rip and roar. :)

I ended up not making my game last night, but was happy to hear we were winning. I’ll have to check with coach and see if we won both games of the double header. Pretty soon, I’ll be taken video at some of my softball games and posting to Viddler.

Just booked a camp site at Happy Hills Campground in Nelsonville, OH.  Brett (Chicago, IL) and I are really looking forward to going on this trip.

Work is going great, really like being with a dotcom again. ;)

Softball started…

Well softball started last week, but we had our first scrimmage last night. Kinda funny playing against the other team I play for in a different league. :)
Seems I’m gonna be super late for my game tonight, we have a client with their site down. :( Sux. I was looking forward to playing and now this. If I’m not injured, it’s something out of my control.

Wow…April has been awesome so far

Posted By: bdog on April 9, 2009 in Trips, me raw - Comments: Comments Off

So far, April has been awesome.  Went to the Orioles season/home opener, 7 years in a row now. Not only did we win over the hated/loathed yankees, but I got an autograph from VP Joe Biden. Political differences aside, it’s pretty neat to shake hands with the Vice President of the United States.

Viddler.com, the company that employs me, had a launch of a new build last week (4-1-09) and it went very well. Hopefully, launches in the future will go as smooth. PS- I have some video from Orioles opening day that I’ll post shortly, but I have to get them off my damn FLIP camera. Stupid FLIPPin’ video camera.

Softball started, well practice anyway. Games start in about 2 weeks. Man, I’m sooooo incredibly out of shape.

Kathi’s non-profit, IttyBittyKitty, is doing very well and will have a website makeover shortly. I just have to make sure that I don’t make the same mistake I made on bdog.org and make everything go ‘Poof’ and disappear. I’ll post a link to the development site, once I have it up.

That’s about it, since working at Viddler, I’ve had the itch to start hacking things together for my blog. The only thing holding me back is time. It’s springtime, I have to play softball, disc golf, go on walks, work, work again, mow lawns, the list goes and goes. So, trying to figure out how to put video posts in my blog, is not a super-top priority.

That’s my update. Happy Easter and do something creative fun and relaxing!!
