Back...for now
I'm back to using WordPress for now. This is nothing against Habari. I'm just not ready for it. I spent several hours for a few days trying to get things to work the way I wanted them to. The Habari c...

The DMV
Yes, it's time for a rant about the Department of Motor Vehicles and how inefficient the process of getting new plates for a car is. Come with me on a journey to the bureaucratic maze that is the DMV...
XM Radio
I have to say one of my favorite features of my new car is XM satellite radio. I always wondered who would pay for radio. The quality is not that great, it's radio so you hear the same stuff over and...
