Are You Allergic to Bee Stings?

Rian — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 21:24:15 +0000

Probably not.

My neighbor just informed me (after I made the mistake of telling him that I was going to keep honey bees) that he has “really bad anti-falactic shock to bee stings.” I can only assume that he was asserting that he would go into anaphylactic shock if he were to be stung by one [...]

If it’s good enough for him, it’s good enough for me.

Blogging is Weird.

Had dinner at our friends’ place last night. The blog was a topic of discussion. This friend, let’s call her ‘Amber’ (Hi, Amber!) was surprised at the content of my blog. It seems she expected it to be “mean” or “sarcastic” rather than “cute”.

She also told me that another friend had been [...]

Call it fame.

So, I’m out in my garden on one of the first sunny days in a very long time, and my Executive Director of Facilities and Operations, Cedar, says, like it’s no big deal, “they were just talking about you on Wiggly Wigglers.”

NO BIG DEAL?! THAT IS LIKE JIM MORRISON SURFACING TO PERFORM A SONG HE’D [...]

OK, I have yet to actually make one, but I did come up with an intro yesterday. Crank those speakers.

Friddle Sings

Rian — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 05:07:13 +0000

Perhaps you remember this post about our new frog, Friddle. You see, Friddle is a lonely frog. He needs someone to share his pond with. And so every night, friddle sings the blues.

I consider this my first (and possibly the world’s shortest) podcast: Friddle Sings the Blues (657K MP3)

On a slightly different– [...]

Best blog of the year? Try millenium!

Rian — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 19:47:56 +0000

I just ran across this site:

Mouse & Trowel

I have no idea who or what it is, but I did see that they’re taking nominations for best garden blogs of various sorts. Now, I’m not suggesting for a minute that anyone should go there and nominate my blog for best garden blog of the year, [...]

The Urban Hayseed on Vacation

Rian — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 06:59:49 +0000

Aloha. I figured I should report in from the Big Island of Hawai’i while I’m here. Once a year, wifey and I like to make a run for it to the sun in the deepest darkest winter. We couldn’t have timed it better, apparently. I’ve gotten reports that it’s been raining [...]

I’m a computer guy.

Well, if there’s anyone who reads this blog, you might have noticed that we went off the air a couple of days ago. It seems that our old server crashed and took out one of the drives.

Now, that shouldn’t matter since we long ago moved off that server. And it wouldn’t had I [...]
