July 27th, Ben hit the big 3. Gifts and cake ruled the night. Ben read us this book cover to cover, well he made up his own story based on the pictures. At the age of 3 he tells more cohesive tales than Rove and Bush Inc.

A few months back Scuttle crafted us a screened in patio/deck dealio which made our house much more than it ever was. Sadly we are saying goodbye to it and the whole house. From SE to NoPo, where of course a new screened patio will be commishioned. Next one I will build the cat5 drops into the works.

Trevor snaps the Portland idea of a parking garage. One day soon, when I have shed some mass, a zoobombing I shall go. Until then its NoPo bombing for me.

We stick our swords into strange beasts in our lives. Some fight for freedom from, some fight for freedom to, some just like to run around like swashbuckling doers of dare. We all need a cool drink though,

What Podcasts Do I Archive?

I listen to a bunch of podcasts. Some I like, some I fast forawrd thru quickly, some I cant wait for every week, some I am responsible for. Mostly though any podcast I have grabbed since Jan 2005 is archived over two local machines[1]. I am not doing the depth of archiving that Jason Scott is doing with his collection, this is more my slice of faves.

So what podcasts am I listening to and archiving. Here is the list. Am I missing any good ones? Any of these make your toes curl? Comment away.

[1] If you happen to be connected to my netowrk just head over to http://10.11.25.120:8888 for the older stuff and http://10.11.25.15:8888 for the last month or so of podcasts.

Found at a recent outing to the local Fred Myers...Scutter holds Her Hammer, a crafts tool for the woman in the family. His woman though will use it mostly to bash in his head for the gender slur. Beware of scutters bearing gifts
