Spokane Loves Their Zags

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

A little post Kraziness in the Kennel scrimmage commentary from Dennis “Are you kidding me?” Patchin.

I wish Dennis was still the Zags radio announcer. Best exclamatory Zag line ever: Good Lord Zach Gourde!

End Of Year Plans

Friday, December 31st, 1999

It’s the final countdown! Now if only I could get that old Europe song out of my head… Anyway I’m planning on staying home for the big change over myself. And with all the snow that we’re getting in Spokane right now, I’m betting more than a few people may change their minds about going out.

I’ve been going a little Python crazy lately. Last night while renting a few new years eve movies at the local Hastings I discovered they had a copy of Programming Python and snapped it up. I’ve pretty much decided to make Python my language of choice for right now. We’ll see how that goes.

Legos And Monsoons

Tuesday, October 26th, 1999

Legos meets Armageddon the movie?

Of course the rain we’ve been getting in Spokane is nothing compared to this.
Speaking of which here’s a pretty sweet 3d graphic of the Indian Monsoon, June 1988.

Rain In Spokane (That Doesn’t Rhyme)

Of course at work today I had to haul a printer all the way across campus and then back again in the rain. And it especially figures since I just washed my car for the first time in ages on Saturday. Ahh well. I love rain.

Seattle Shopping

Sunday, June 20th, 1999

Mary and I headed back to Spokane today after a little bit of shopping at the U Village Barnes and Noble and REI. I bought a really cool red bike messenger bag at REI and four books at Barnes and Noble.

Weird Hazy Day

Friday, May 28th, 1999

Today is the day of Mary’s big presentation in Chicago.

Mary reports that her presentation went really well!

It’s kind of a weird hazy day in Spokane today. It’s definitely not as nice as it has been the last few days. It was still pretty sunny and warm on my bike ride home though.

Looks like I’m going to be headed out for a little lake action this weekend with Steve. Jet skis, computers, and friends- what more could you ask for in a weekend? Mary being back from Chicago of course! LOL

Wednesday Ride

Wednesday, May 12th, 1999

I didn’t ride to work today, but I did get in a pretty good ride after I got home. It made me realize that there’s a definite downside to living towards the bottom of the South Hill when you decide to ride up it and you’re out of shape.

Even though the weather has been weird and crappy in May so far I really think this is going to be a good summer overall. Chances are it will go by really quickly as well.

I should really get around to doing some of the site improvements I’ve been mulling over forever. Or I could just go to sleep now. I am kind of tired.

Nice Weather On A Friday

Friday, April 23rd, 1999

What a nice day weather wise. I wish I had my bike already. I’d be doing some serious riding around town. There are lots of places that I’d like to explore that I’ve never been to in all my years in Spokane.

Everybody cleared out of work early it seemed like. I left a little early myself.

College campuses always seem to come alive during the spring and GU is no exception. Students are out throwing frisbees and having fun soaking up the rays. It’s nice to be a part of that every day.

Parent Trap And Mod Squad

Sunday, March 28th, 1999

It snowed this morning. That’s fairly typical for spring weather in Spokane, but I thought that it was especially ironic since I took off my studded snow tires yesterday. It melted rapidly though and didn’t hinder my driving.

I finally saw the new Parent Trap this afternoon. It was a very cute movie. I liked it a lot.

This evening I saw The Mod Squad. There was a lot of walking around with attitude to cool/funky music by the three young stars and not a whole lot of substance, but I enjoyed it.

Oscar Night

Sunday, March 21st, 1999

The weather here in Spokane has been really nice all weekend. I think Spring is finally here.

Tonight the Oscars are on.

I hope Cate Blanchett wins best actress for her role in Elizabeth. Gwyneth was good in Shakespeare in Love, but Cate was better.

All I know is that Joseph Fiennes was a very lucky man to star opposite both of them!
