Published on: April 24, 2005

What gives, we have had snow for the last two days. And they are predicting more snow till Tuesday. Then after that they are prediction rain for the rest of the week. Back in the 90’s the environmentalists promised us global warming. But when I look at the weather this weekend I don’t see it.[…]

Published on: April 21, 2005

My mind started to think about all the nicknames I have had in the past, for no real good reason. And since 95 I have only had 4, these would be either in real life (3 of them would count) and in virtual life (2 again would count there). They are: Crazy Mike; this one[…]

This is cool I just found a web site that lists blog of people that are in the Pittsburgh area. The only problem when they list places people might live they did not list the neighborhood of Pittsburgh, so I just filled in the “other field” and put in Oakland. Well technically I should have[…]

Jon Fortt’s Technofile has some very good stuff on it, I stopped reading slashdot back at the beginning of the year, but been looking for a good site to get some tech news from for a while, and I think I found it. Jon Fortt’s site is interesting, it focuses mainly on Apple related stuff[…]

Backup DNA

I found this post on Backup DNA on another blog. Would it not be cool if humans did have this same backup DNA built in. If humans did, maybe we could find a way to cause the backup to be brought forth. This probably would have to be done very early in a womans pregnancy.[…]

I must be boring

Published on: March 8, 2005

I must be boring, I just finished watching NOVA on WQED (Pittsburgh’s PBS) on string theory and I find it very interesting. It is kind of interesting to see the current thoughts on how the universe physically works. And I am watching it while I do some work I brought home that I want to[…]

Published on: March 4, 2005

Well today was “fun” my computer (laptop) was hacked into by some one, I assume it was just some stupid kiddy scripter. Why do I say it was probably just a stupid kiddy scripter, was because the stuff that was put on. A ftp server was put on, so it makes me think it was[…]

The Oakland Neighborhood of Pittsburgh.

Comments: Comments Off on The Oakland Neighborhood of Pittsburgh.
Published on: February 5, 2005

It is a nice place to live, don’t really need a car to live here, but it does lack in one thing inside the area, it needs a good pet store. You do need a car if you want to go to a pet store, the closes pet store Oakland (that I know of) is[…]
