Can you Feel the Love??

Can you feel it?? The Hawg has decided to share a little of the love and has named me his NUMBER 2 blog that he truly hearts. How freakishly weird cool is that?? Anyways, one of the stipulations was that I in turn, spread the love with seven (hmmm… thats the same as the number [...]

Meals Made Easy

I do all the cooking. I mean, if I’m at home and someone needs popcorn or cereal poured, its all me. Amy tried cooking once and she managed to set an egg on fire boiling it, so I do all the cooking. I’m usually struggling for ways to make dinner for the four of us [...]

The Battle Heightens

In case you missed it last night, Obama made his acceptance speech last night and while it reads to be a fairly good speech and the critics have all had nothing but praise, as I read through it, it reeked of the same old Democratic rhetoric that they’ve been spewing for years. Promising change, promising [...]

Spin another record on the Phonograph!

Amie St. Music Wednesday Everyonce in a while an artist or group comes along that offers something different yet the same. Enter Phonograph. Their sound reminds me of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers which isn’t a bad thing at all. Its got some nice rock undertones to it and listening to the Phonographs is an [...]

Buyers Remorse

Day two of the DNC Convention is under way in Denver (lovely city! Shame about the Liberals though) and I have to wonder (as many outside the liberal mindset do) if the Dems should be feeling any buyer’s remorse yet or if that will set in after the close of the convention on Friday. Thousands [...]

Review it!

Having worked for a web hosting company for a while as a Systems Administrator (think fancy tech support) I kind of know my way around web servers. When it came time to find my own servers, I knew what I was looking for. A dedicated server, where I was responsible for everything except hitting the [...]

And the Winner is…

Well, the Olympics are Finally over (don’t get me wrong, its fun watching the world compete for Gold Medals and all, but two and a half weeks??) and that means that the TOTAL medal count is complete. The US came out on top with the highest number of Medals (110) followed closely by China (who [...]

And the Veep is….

Despite his claims earlier in the week that he “isn’t the guy”, it appears that Joe Biden is in fact the guy. Its interesting to note that Obama choose someone who just a year ago said that “Barack Obama is not ready to be president”. What prompted the change? Well, maybe the fact that he’s [...]

Staying In touch

Amy’s parents moved to Chicago. Well, the moved to Virginia, then Maryland and now Chicago. Its a good reason to travel, but its not a good thing when the little one’s want to talk to grammy sue and taco breezy. We’d been doing it on the phone, but that only goes for so long. This [...]

High Performance Advertising!

I’m generally always looking for a way to help keep the lights on here at Delusions and at Linuxtracker.org as well. Whether its doing paid posts/reviews, selling ads or my plasma, whatever it takes to pay the bills is usually what I do. I came across a better way to sell ad spots on my [...]

WordPress Mobile!

I’ve been looking for a good way to view this site on my blackberry for a while now (the images in the theme play hell with a mobile browser) and I finally came across a kick ass plugin that does just that. WordPress Mobile (imagine that right??) is a really nice plugin that reformats your [...]

On teh roadz again!

Last week, I was left home alone as Amy drove to Louisville, KY to drop the girls off with her parents (her parents drove down from ChiTown). This week I wasn’t so lucky. After a night of pyro at the Ted, I had to pile in the car with the loved one and head north. [...]

a little bit of training…

Can go a long way, unfortunately, these days too many people are focusing on general IT degrees or MCSE certs that don’t amount to much when it comes to actual hands on ability. I’ve grown up in the IT field. Pops worked for IBM for something like 28 years before he took early retirement and [...]

Make Two Calls

Amie St. Music Wednesday Solid. Strong. Nuts. Funny shaped leafs. All things you think of when you think of a mighty Oak. Standing tall, shading you on a hot summer day while you sip lemonade and play your guitar in hopes of wooing women. Right? Well, when thinking about these OaKs its more like good [...]

Beats Recycling!

I was out cruising the intertubes today and I came across a post at Cromely’s World where he was talking about recycling an AC unit. Not one of the big ones thats tied in to a thermostat in your house, but a window unit, and how he had to PAY $50 to have it recycled. [...]

Why Blogging is Like training for the Olympics

When Michael Phelps trains for a competition like the Olympics, he really trains. Most days he swims four miles in preparation. Others he works outside of the pool on building muscle mass and endurance. The man is a machine and its no wonder that he’s on pace to set an Olympic record of 10 Olympic [...]

Back to School with character!

What could be cooler than going back to school with your favorite cartoon network stars?? NOTHING!! Well, almost nothing. How about getting a Free Gift With Every Purchase when you use the Code BEN10GIFT While Supplies Last?? I think thats pretty sweet itself. Don’t you?? There’s some pretty cool stuff on there (like the I [...]

Look at them GO!!

So the Olympics have been underway for less than a week and China is out to an impressive lead with the gold medal count. Don’t worry though, Michael Phelps is doing his part to bring the US back (with two of the three golds around his neck). Its interesting to see the count and how [...]
