I wanted to showcase this cool video that Derek put together months ago for the GamerIdentity.com campaign. Pretty cool!

June 13th, 2007What if there was a way for me to tell you the games that you would like, all based on the fact that you like this one game. And tell me, what would this one game be, that you happen to be looking at, that I would give you this list…

Manager Gone Wild
June 3rd, 2007I would not want to play Monopoly with this guy… Can you imagine what would happen if you tossed some hotels up on Boardwalk and he landed on it?
Fishing Trip to Breitenbush River
May 13th, 2007I went on my first fishing trip in about 3 years (I’m ashamed to say) yesterday with a few friends. We headed over to the Breitenbush River, just to the NE of Detroit Lake here in Oregon. The river bank was awesome, with pretty fast paced water shooting over rock formations. However, we didn’t see a trout all day…
I’ve posted my photos from this trip on flickr, view them here!
World’s Tallest Coat Rack
April 11th, 2007Here in Eugene, it seems to rain a lot. And by a lot, I mean every other day (lately). So, I decided to wear my rain coat to work. When I got inside I was greeted by a new variety of coat rack, complete with a sign that read “Long Coats Only”. Then I hopped over to my email. To the entire company, from Thomas Buscaglia — it read…
This is just a friendly reminder of our coat rack policy. I hate to have to do this, but there seem to be a few people among us who seem to be forgetting that these rules are in place for a reason. I won’t name any names, but you know who you are. Let’s try to remember: short coats go on short racks, long coats go on long racks. That’s all. If we all do our part we can keep this a pleasant work environment for everyone, tall and short.
Thank you.
Here is a picture of Ben Garney (one of the taller individuals here in the office at 6′7″) after he hung up his coat on the “World’s Tallest Coat Rack”.
Turns out that my coat is touching the floor because I am not privileged enough to use the “Long Coats Only” coat rack
MSU Moves On — Slide.com Slideshow to Celebrate
March 16th, 2007Slide.com, provider of cool widgets for most popular social networking sites and beyond, is getting wrapped in the March Madness with collegiate themes for their services. I slammed together a quick little slideshow of yesterdays’ Michigan State victory over Marquette to exemplify what they look like!
Their Mascot is a Tree
March 15th, 2007Stanford is getting trounced in the Tourney. But what do you expect — their mascot is a tree!
Slash Butchers “Ain’t Talkin Bout Love”
March 13th, 2007…along with the rest of Velvet Revolver
Last night was the big induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for the boys of Van Halen. Eddie was hanging out in rehab and [Alex] his brother decided to make a stand and skip the event as well. Velvet Revolver was given the honor of ushering them in with a performance of the classic “Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love”; however, it seems they weren’t up to the task.
Slash was focused on making sure his leather pants were tight, his top hat was tipped, and his smoke was lit– when really he should’ve been making sure he knew the opening lick to the song. It was quite embarrassing for all (especially for me as I’ve always found Slash’s ability to play most impressive). Scott Weiland’s vocals were all over the place as were his pathetic dance moves.
