Playing with Video in my posts

February 11, 2009

I think I will start trying to add some video to my posts to make things a bit more interesting.  Ideally, I will be posting short videos of the boys if they are acting very silly or some sort of instructional videos at some point. Since I am just experimenting right now – I thought [...]

My mind is elsewhere

December 20, 2007

Wow – guess it has been awhile since I last posted.  Truthfully, I haven’t been into it lately – I have been much too busy working on my business which can be found here : Innovative Wealth LLC Things are going rather spectacular with business lately and I haven’t had the time to pay any [...]

Ok – here goes . . .

November 15, 2007

Well, this site will be down for a bit. Hopefully not long. First, the URL will temporarily change to vinsdad.blogspot.com . This will be just long enough to move wordpress onto the Vinsdad server and import all of the posts. After all the posts are transferred, I can delete my blogger account – of course [...]

Dumping Blogger – Hello WordPress

November 14, 2007

Well the last few days I have been setting up my WordPress installation before I actually move over. I need to make sure all the links are working and things look good before I transfer. Within the next day or so, things should be looking quite different around here. One of the toughest things in [...]

Google Whacked!

November 13, 2007

I thought I had escaped without injury during Google’s most recent round of Page Rank Updates. With so many big name bloggers enduring a drop in their page rank a couple of weeks ago, I was counting my lucky stars that Google’s attacks had missed me. But then reality struck . . . I have [...]

Time for a "new" car

November 7, 2007

Nearly two weeks ago, Mary was in a car accident. Nothing horrible happened to her or the other driver, however, our Jeep was totaled. The other driver had a Subaru that, judging from the pictures (I will put them up later), was likely totaled as well. The REALLY annoying part: She (the other driver that [...]

I am done with Blogger

November 6, 2007

The first year or so of this blog went rather well from a hosting standpoint – I had been using Blogspot as the host and there was never a problem. That all changed a couple of months ago when I switched to my own hosting via 1and1.com that I experience issues. I have had enough [...]

Steven King’s – The Mist

November 6, 2007

I was just checking out the trailers for The Mist by Stephen King and have to say that it looks intriguing. I enjoyed the very candid interview with director Frank Darabont(Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile) that had some amusing anecdotes about his experience with the film. An underlying theme in this movie seems to [...]

Luckiest guy around

November 4, 2007

For most accounts, I was not a fan of childhood. My earliest memory, I was about 2, was walking into our bathroom (painted in putrid 70′s yellow) to find my mom and sister crying over the body of our dead dog. Of course at the time I did not realize it was dead but it’s [...]

WGA Strike – Milli Vanilli hold press conference

November 1, 2007

First let me start by saying that I highly doubt that the strike will actually happen and, if it does, it will be less than a day. The reason? MONEY. Tons of advertiser money would be going down the tubes if primetime shows have to play reruns. This, of course, would really tick off the [...]
