On the hunt for Christmas lights in Columbus
Me and the wife last night went out to find Christmas lights. Despite driving all over the northwest side of Columbus, we didn’t really see much.
So I decided to reach out to you folks on the Web and see if you can help us. I have put up a wiki site at
http://www.bestlightsincolumbus.com/wiki
and have asked everyone I know to upload any information on any places you know about in the Columbus, Ohio area that has awesome Christmas lights. We have one response so far and are going to Pickerington tonight to see it.
If for some reason you can’t figure out the format for posting to wiki, please leave comment here or email me and I will post it for you.
From my blogspot blog- A call to Action October 9, 2009This is an email blast I (and all Obama supporters) received this afternoon from the Prez himself.Jimmy --This morning, Michelle and I awoke to some surprising and humbling news. At 6 a.m., we received word that I'd been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009.To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformativ […]
- A new Macbook PRO for me! September 8, 2009I am soooo happy...got a new macbook pro 15"..and the fully-loaded one with all the video memory and processor you can stand.It's WICKED fast...and I can run Windows 7 and MacOS in different windows and barely notice any performance issues at all. I am ready to get back to school and to write my iPhone app now. More to come.
- Am I actually blogging today August 27, 2009Well I am living the "Web 2.0" dream today (Twitter/HootSuite, LinkedIn, of course Facebook, Gdgt) and thought 'hey, why not a blog post too?'. I am really getting the hang of this work-from-home gig I think and the one thing I have learned is that without interruptions from office chatter and such, I can get so much more done (literally […]

- My brain is on NEWS overload April 1, 2009As part of my "resolutions" for life out of school for the summer, I have dedicated myself to catching up on the news, moreover the economic picture. Looks like GM is going to spend time in bankruptcy court. This is going to be very bad for them in the short term even though the government has agreed to guarantee all of their car warranties, but th […]
- I am loving me some windows 7 March 30, 2009Some say that windows 7 is just windows vista dressed up, but that's not quite right. Although the code base is basically the same, saying Windows 7 is a dressed up vista would be like saying that Windows XP is a dressed up Windows 2000 Workstation. If that's the case and Windows XP is still highly used in the world today, then by all means, dress […]
- School's out and its time to find me for a while March 27, 2009Well, I rewarded myself today for a job well done in school these last two semesters by taking the day off and pretty much not doing anything. That is RARE for me these days. Its hard to shut down the brain for a day unless you distract it like playing video games or something, but I ran a couple of errands and such which helps.Can't wait for the weathe […]
- I am soooo ready for school to be over (for summer time anyway) March 15, 2009Wow its been a while since I wrote anything on this silly blog. I have been bombarded with work and school stuff for the last couple of weeks. Lots of changes at work with all the layoffs and reorganization.It is odd though that while most people picked up an extra "hat" during this last round of layoffs, I actually had my workload lightened up qui […]
- Crunch time all around February 22, 2009Wow, what a week!Both of the teams I manage at work are in the midst of delivering major projects in the next couple of weeks. It is making work a 24 x 7 operation this month. On top of that, I just finished a class last week and started a new one this past week and the transition between classes means large final projects on top of initial reading assignmen […]

- Class Dismissed February 12, 2009Boy I'm glad that I have finished my assignments for this class a day ahead of schedule. Work is so crazy that I literally had to take a vacation day to finish up the assignments. I have worked the last two weekends in a row and do NOT plan on working this weekend. I have started reading my textbook for my next class starting on Monday. I only have 200 […]
- Bush Chief Of Staff To Obama: Put Your Jacket On (VIDEO) February 6, 2009ENOUGH already....if this is all Mr. Card can find to pick on with President Obama he needs to ride off into the sunset. In the 21st century, we don't have time to worry about our coats and ties. We need to roll up our sleeves and get to the work of the work. The economy is a mess, we are in two wars, and I am pretty sure this has all come about because […]
- Google having "Issues" January 31, 2009So I am at work with a few of my associates and they just discovered that whatever you search for using google (we tried microsoft) you get a page that says "this site may be harmful".Just thought I would share. We thinks google gots problems.
- I HATE BEING SICK!!!!!! January 24, 2009There is just something about being sick that I just hate (as I am sure no one really likes it). Despite the fact that I know I have to get rest and do certain things to make it go away, I resist. I absolutely loathe having to stop any part of my fast moving life to deal with it.Its in its third day now, and still going strong. I thought I was better yesterd […]
- The first Executive Proclimation from President Obama January 20, 2009Check this out
- America just witnessed history made! January 20, 2009I am proud to be an American today. It is so relieving to see the inauguration of the new President today. While we are nowhere near out of the woods with regards to this joke we call the American economy, today is the first day of moving forward. I found it very interesting that immediately following the ceremony, there was a press shot of Obama sitting at […]
- Bowling League tonight...and an experiment January 20, 2009So after a few months off, I am starting a new and very uncompetitive bowling league tonight at 9:15 (yes I know that's wayyyy late). That's all the options you have when you don't start a league in the fall. I decided that because the bowling center is near the office rather than near my house, I would stay at the office and work on school wo […]
- At Home Alone on a Friday Night January 17, 2009So it's Friday night, and my other half is out on a camping trip with a few of her girlfriends, and I am sitting in front of this machine. I took a look around at places to go tonight, but I am just not motivated. I believe I will have a few drinks and just hang out at home. I am hosting a party for my work associates tomorrow night so I figure that wil […]
- Bye bye Dubya January 16, 2009So I am celebrating tonight. It is the farewell party tonight for perhaps the worst president definitely of my lifetime, but possibly in history, ole Dubya. While I have to admit the last eight years of my life have been really amazing, the country as a whole has deteriorated. the economy is in the toilet, we are fighting two wars, one of which in my mind sh […]
- Ahh I love new toys January 13, 2009Today was a very fun day for me at work. No, I didn't get a raise or a promotion, or even do something fun. Today folks, was Blackberry refresh day! My old and very worn out (many of the keys literally were not functioning anymore) was replaced with a shiny new Blackberry Curve. It is truly the little things that amuse me.I also attended a bowling leagu […]
