Didn’t know of the about.me acquisition when I published my post. I actually wrote it on Saturday. Good timing I guess.
I really like the “personal splash page” design you can create with about.me, but I want to control my URLs. I figured I could do the same thing on my web site with a little CSS. Here’s a screenshot of what it looks like for historical purposes.
Made a small batch of salad dressing from scratch. Tasty!
You don’t need a bunch of expensive flashy equipment to have a decent home gym.
I’m very proud to work somewhere that has a freedom of speech stance like this: http://en.wordpress.com/freedom-of-speech/ (via @RyanMarkel)
Had downloaded an old version. Took a drive around the block and I think this will work!
FirePin doesn’t run in the background. That’s pretty useless.

Finally lost weight, but only 2 pounds. Seven more to go before 2011. Completed a 10 Minute Trainer workout to get started. Heart is racing.
While watching the Lions win their first road game since October of 2007, I though back to Barry Sanders. There has never been a more exciting player in the NFL and I’m not sure there ever will be. He was such a class act too. You never saw Barry show off or do an end zone dance. When he scored (often), he always dropped the ball or walked it over to the referee and headed straight for the sideline.
I’m glad he played for the Lions because I was able to see several of his games in person, but I can’t help but wonder how good he would have been playing behind the offensive lines of the Dallas Cowboys Emmitt Smith ran behind. How many more records would Barry have set? How many more years would we have been able to enjoy his talent if he hadn’t played for Detroit and retired early? We’ll never know.
Enjoy some Barry highlights…
