After Sandy I moved a tree!

Sandy wasn’t too bad to us.  I was awoken at 8:35 AM Eastern to a giant WHOMP/WHAM.  I actually thought a tree hit the house.  (Or someone slammed a door REALLY hard).  I could find evidence of neither, so I guess maybe it was something exploding somewhere else?  Still unknown.

Watching Hurricane Sandy

So hurricane Sandy is trolling the East Coast looking to do some damage.

I’ve compiled (and while I have power, will continue to update) a list of links I’m using to watch the storm.  If you have others, send them to me @HandyNerds  Thanks!

Canon MTS Files – Magic Splitting and Concatenation

Something weird happened when I was editing some video from the HFS20.  As my system looked at the card, somehow it saw 17 minutes of video in 1 file on the SD Card.

This worked great until I copied the media to the NAS, and repointed Adobe Premier at the …

Honeywell Air Filters – HRF What?

We’ve got a Honeywell air purifier in the house, and while the lights on the device never said it was time to change the filter, after several years, it was time to change the filter.

The problem was that (of course) Home Depot didn’t carry any replacement filters in stock, …

Cross AWESOME off the bucket list

I’ve been up north watching all the reports from my friends & hackers that went to Black Hat & DefCon.  I honestly felt sorry for them being stuck inside of a hotel or a bar in hot Las Vegas.  Why?  Because while they were sitting around one more hotel conference …

Went to New York. Hotels.com can’t make hotel reservations or take reviews

I went to New York and stayed at the New York Hilton on 1335 Avenue of the Americas.  Hotels.com has since been pestering me for a review.  However, when I went to hit submit it said, please limit your review to 1500 characters. Right, because …

Superfeet Green

So I’ve been having some troubles with my knees after a Disney injury. I really wish it was more exciting, but it isn’t. The orthopedic Dr. that I went to suggested that I get some Superfeet Green Premium Insoles. I looked around and picked up a pair at REI …

I’m now the owner of a Mexican Restaurant Website

There are two places I like to visit when I am in Williamsburg.  For dessert you can’t beat Handel’s Ice Cream.  Now, I grew up in Milwaukee, so I know a thing or two about ice cream, and custard.  Our family was known to go to Kopp’s Frozen Custard …

I sat at Panera Bread for 45 minutes before my order was taken.

Just kidding, Panera Bread doesn’t work that way.  But my latest trip there doesn’t get much better.

So I’m in Williamsburg doing the Great Wolf Lodge thing right?  Not content to give ALL my money to the Wolf (save the evacuation of my wallet for the Mouse) we decided to …

Second Trip to Great Wolf Lodge

You know how you find a new band, and they come out with an album, and you are like, this is the best thing since deep fried macaroni and cheese with a chipotle ranch dip?

Then you get their second album, and it is all sand and eggshells with day …
