I found a cool game via a web link from Facebook, I believe. It’s a site that sells lots of games for the Mac, offering a free 1-hour demo of each. I saw this one called Burger Shop at #3 on their Most Popular list and decided to try it… it was a blast! I…
A Lesson From Monopoly
It’s probably not even accurate, but tonight while I was playing a game of Monopoly with my nine-year-old son, Ian, I couldn’t help but notice how the game paralleled life – and how I did not like that. First off, it was just a really fun night. We call them OK Nights. (One Kid Nights.)…
A Picture of 54,000 Words
I followed a link to a pretty fun site yesterday. It’s called Wordle, and lets you take any text, or URL, or feed from any site and make a random word picture from the text that you give it. Very fun, actually! I did a couple more images. First, when I just took the text…
Energized
I got back just a while ago from my first shift at the Apple store. I was really looking forward to it, wondering just how it would actually play out. I know Macs, for sure, but I didn’t really know how thing go at the store. I knew I was going to tag along with…
Content
The past three weeks – maybe four – have been mostly a blur. I’ve been sleeping even less than normal, and been working much more than normal … and yet, there is a strange contentment like I have not recently known. For quite sometime, financial pressures have been slowly bearing down on us, threatening to…
Apple Retail = Me!
As you are well aware, if you have spent any time at all here at GregsHead.net, I am a big fan of all things Apple. I have informally been a “representative” for Apple for many years (often the number one resource for Apple info and assistance amongst people who know me) and was even officially…
Psych
For a while now, my parents, knowing we are fans of the show Monk, have said that we would enjoy the USA Networks show, Psych. So much so that they gave us the first season on DVD! But, as you might already know, life has been quite busy around here, so we have not taken/found…
Tank Who
My friend Hannah told me a joke this week, and I keep remembering it (and using the key phrase from it) so, I figured it needed to be shared here… “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Tank.” “Tank who?” “You’re welcome!”
Nothing Finer
I just gotta say… Our tomatoes are doing so great! We have gotten a small sampling of the cherry tomatoes so far – and they just taste fantastic. There’s nothing finer than homegrown tomatoes! And, oddly enough, I really like the smell of the tomato plants, too… 🙂
Book Review: Dangerous Wonder
I finished the book Dangerous Wonder earlier this week, and just wanted to say a few words about it, and again, highly recommend the read. It’s actually a very short book, and full of very cool stories of people living life recklessly, irresponsibly, and altogether fantastically. You might not think reckless and irresponsible would lead…
