If you've read about my trip to Vegas, it will not surprise you to hear that I had a flat tire this morning. What will surprise you is that it wasn't the tire with the slow leak (front driver's-side). It's the rear passenger-side tire. I am really annoyed about this. The whole reason I bought a new car was so... read more »

While driving toward home, I passed through the city of Nephi. I noticed a cop car off to the side of the road, and instinctively slowed down a bit, even though I was only doing about 80. As I got closer, I was suddenly struck by the fear that I had missed a sign that reduced the speed limit to... read more »

While driving to St. George, I listened to the end of the BYU-Wyoming football game. I pretty much wish I hadn't bothered. In St. George, I had dinner with someone The Parents wanted me to meet. She was very nice, and we had a good conversation. Potential there? We'll see. After dinner, I continued my drive home. I'd hoped to... read more »

We had a great time chatting about our respective jobs, old acquaintances from Baylor Law School, etc. Heather and I met (at least as I remember it) because we sat next to each other in Civil Procedure, which was the first class... read more »

Sure enough, the tire was noticeably low. (Which is rather... read more »

But I now have access to much more CGI power, which will let me play around with several things I've been wanting to... read more »

When Professor X says he's going to see an old friend, he means Magneto. When I say that, I do not mean Magneto, since he and I have never been all that friendly. (Plus, he's a fictional character, and -- call me prejudiced if you will -- I count very few fictional characters among my friends.) In this case, it... read more »

I'm turning off comments until I get transferred over to the new server, so I don't lose any data.

OK, I have Movable Type working on the new server, for the most part. Still some things I need to fix, though.

In the next couple of days I'm going to be moving this blog (and the rest of my personal sites) to a new server. (more…)
