Let the psychosis begin

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

All those ghosts of High School just keep coming back. Still recovering from running into the 9-year-old who managed the race yesterday, I finally met the wife of my son’s den leader who’s house he goes to for den meetings. Its Kim X from high school. We were friends, hung out in [...]

Burnt Hills Apple 5K

Saturday, October 21st, 2006

Ok, I ran.  I was meh.  The race was nice.  Another small local race which is a very nice thing.  No high pressure gunk involved, just local folks out for a race.  7:40 pace.  Not my hoped for target of 7:30 but it beats the New Haven 7:50.  The times are still dropping but not [...]

Race this morning

I have a 5K this am.

Patented chocolate by Mars!

Friday, October 13th, 2006

I was perusing the U.S. Patent Office database the other day and came across a design patent by Mars for a candy bar. Patents for the chocolate companies are very rare so I really wanted to have a look at it.
Here is FIG. 1 from the patent. I thought it was kinda [...]

No comment?

Is anyone out there having trouble leaving comments?  Do you get an odd error message?  A few people have let me know about it and I wanted to know if anyone else has the same trouble.  Apparently the spammers are having good luck lately but real users are not.
Try to post a comment.  No luck?  [...]

Some dirt

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

I got my seven miles in today.  I went down to the park and ran the big circle 4 times.  It wasn’t too bad.  After 2 miles, I switched directions so it looked a little different.  I think if I had to do 15 that way, I’d go bonkers.
My legs felt alot better for this [...]
