Summer Bummer

Posted by Exer on Thursday, July 1st, 2010

We’ve been having rain, rain and more rain the past couple weeks. Looks like it may be a typical wet Alaskan summer. Not that I should be all that bothered by it, since I’m not actually working outdoors at the moment. What do I really have to complain about, mowing the grass too often? I [...]

Alaska isn’t always a winter wonderland, covered in feet of snow. We are a green, green state, for a few amazing months of summer.

Puppy Tales

Posted by Exer on Thursday, June 10th, 2010

OK, well he isn’t exactly a puppy anymore, but that doesn’t stop me from calling him “pup” every now and again. Whenever my mom stops by to visit she calls him “grandpa”, but that’s just because she is evil and likes to pick on helpless animals. Yup. Anyway, here is my PUP out enjoying the [...]

Don’t Bug Me

Posted by Exer on Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

This little lady decided to land on my brothers hand while we worked on his car in the driveway. She wasn’t in any hurry to fly away, so we grabbed a camera and decided to try out the macro lens.

If You Musk

Posted by Exer on Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Every day is a lazy day for a muskox at the Alaska Zoo. It must be a lonely life. I went with my cousin, who kept saying things like “They want to be free!” every time we would reach a new exhibit. It annoyed me at the time, but looking back on the photos I [...]

Gimmie Gimmie

So I found out yesterday that I owe my former employer some money. Five hundred and eighty-three dollars. And ten cents, to be exact. I was given 14 days to repay it — and the letter was mailed a week ago, so I only have 7 days now — or it will be turned over [...]

Techno-lust

Sunday, March 7th, 2010 - Entertainment, Technology

I’ll be the first to admit that I spend money on things I don’t “need”. Do I need 2 flat panels sitting on my desk? No, not really. Did I need a Kindle? Nope. Did I need an iPhone, when any ol’ phone would have worked fine? Nah, didn’t need it. I just wanted those [...]

I Viewed What?

Saturday, March 6th, 2010 - Blog

Sometimes I think the Amazon.com “Recommended Products” list is on crack or something. I do 90% of my online shopping on that site, so I look at a ton of stuff. But I know the sort of things I look at, and it is constantly telling me that I’ve looked at things that I know [...]

Legend Of The Guardians

I may be on the verge of turning 30, but I don’t think I’ll ever “grow up” enough to stop enjoying movies like this. Bring on the flying owl champions!

Bad Boys Bad Boys

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010 - TV

I love cop shows.  Most of the time they just make no sense whatsoever. Was just watching COPS, and heard this gem of a quote: He barricaded himself in, and that gave us probable cause to enter the building and get him. Hey now, wait a moment. How would you know the door was barricaded unless you [...]

Should Have Skied

Friday, February 26th, 2010 - Blog

My brother showed up here at home during his school day yesterday, and our conversation went a bit like this: Me:  Hey, what are you doing home so early? Him:  The snow on the roads is so bad! I left school to go get lunch, and I almost got into so many wrecks. Cars were [...]

Snail Mail

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 - Blog

It’s so funny the way things are shipped. I use this site called the Avery Universal Package Tracker to track things that I have due in the mail, because I can enter multiple services (fedex, usps, ups) all on one page. Well they also show you a little Google Map image to visually show you [...]

But… Where Are They?

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010 - Blog

One of my brothers friends stopped by earlier, and he just so happens to have a beautiful little (almost two-year old) daughter named Amaya. This girl has light cocoa skin, and bright blue eyes, and is such a pretty little thing that you can’t help but smile and stare at everything she does. Well the first [...]

Thanks, Sarah

Monday, February 15th, 2010 - Alaska

On behalf of The NJ Tourist Bureau, we want to thank the State of Alaska. For years, we at the New Jersey Tourist Bureau thought it would be impossible for our home state to lose the designation, “most screwed up state in the Union.” We’ve grown tired of jokes about our state being the armpit [...]
