It’s official, Gage

You are going to live in two different consecutive Stanley Cup champion cities. I don’t know how many people can say they have done that.

How games are changing our world

I watched two videos today about game technology that are truly enlightening. The first is enjoyable, and the second is quite disturbing.

Happy Birthday GeraldMackerel.com

Today marks one year since the first post on this website. Since then, we have created 88 posts and 467 comments. Perhaps, some things that might not have been shared otherwise.

I can’t help but enjoy how all of you were able to climb on board and make use of this mess called a wordpress website. I am sure we all feel like we could post here more often, but that feeling never goes away.

One great thing about the web is that once you hit the publish button, your message is no longer under your control. Each time a person (or a robot!) visits our little site a new copy is made to be shared. This website will likely exist somewhere much longer than I am able to pay 7$ a year to maintain control over our dot com. About a month ago, I read something about services that can make books out of blog websites.

Bestseller or not, this website is the perfect vehicle for us to share without the distractions of any other place online. I like to think our first year was a great break-in period, and at this point we might be ready for version 1.0. Hell, mom just discovered Fast Company and Felix just got a facebook.

 

 

Eighty-nine posts.

I went skiing

I went skiing for the first time ever on Saturday. Scott and I went spring mountain, a place only about 20 minutes from his house in Phoenixville. I had a blast, and I am left wondering why I waited so long to try.

After about 20 minutes of slow speed falls, I was good to go. Good, until I followed Scott off the side of the half pipe. What he did you could call a “drop in.” I wasn’t so lucky. He got his, though, and took one of the jumps too fast before we left. I was surprised by the amount of jumps and grind rails throughout the trails. Jared, you would love this place.

My new hockey helmet is awesome

…but it’s about time to add a face shield. Santa got me a new helmet, but I have been playing with no shield since the one on my old helmet does not fit. I even tried a shield that one of my teammates has an extra with no luck.

Well, last night I paid the price for taking my time finding one.

If you want to see a scary picture that I took in the locker room before five stitches, click here.

A wedding picture

I was organizing some photos for email this morning. Here’s one of them. Ryan, Tim and I are posing with Laura Moyer about an hour before she became Mrs. Travis Smith in downtown Harrisburg, PA. She’s a chef. He’s a butcher. Thanksgiving at their place was fantastic.

Hot real estate in Croton

Sort of odd for a building that should have been mostly empty and unused lately.
