I wrote this yesterday. According the forecast, when this post goes live, I’ll be moving 5-8 inches of snow off of my driveway.

That, or watching TV and thinking about moving snow.

Maybe I’ll just sleep in and wait for spring to melt the snow.

Crazy-easy ice cream bread ^[3]. How could this possibly be bad?

Tron comes out in 2 weeks. I’d love to show up on a custom street-legal Troncycle ^[4].

Arsenic-based lifeforms are shaking up the way we understand life to work ^[5]. I’m of the opinion that life will probably exist almost everywhere that isn’t a completely dead dry rock. I say that as an expert in…well, nothing related to astrobiology.

Following Erica’s advice ^[6] is currently making me a few hundred dollars per month, with every sign of growing as time goes on. I hate to sound like a fanboy, but if she pimps a product, I’m at least going to give it some serious consideration.

LRN Timewarp

This is a new feature to share the gift that is me with anyone new to LRN. This week, I’m going to share some posts from my first week blogging here.

The $10 College Fund ^[13]. In the last year, not only have I not changed my mind about the $10 college fund, but I haven’t raised the amount. The point is to just get started. I’ve done that. I’ll raise the amount when my debt is paid off. We are now up to $166.09. The numbers are off because I stuck a little bit extra in one month.

In the last year, our dreams haven’t changed ^[14]. We haven’t made any direct progress, but indirectly we are doing well. First things first. We need to pay the debt off before we look at a hobby farm.

My second day blogging, I wrote about why we handled money so poorly ^[15].
