fedex is better than ups links
so, i needed something here quickly and the vendor offered to ship via ups next day. it was delayed in southern california due to “inclement weather” whereas i got something from fedex today taking the same route. wtf? i’ve tried to give ups a chance to get more of our business but they suck at stuff like this. anyway, now that’s off my chest, enjoy these stories while you stay dry under a roof somewhere:
-> i knew san francisco was a little crooked with lombard street, hilly landscape and weird people, but this photographic evidence proves it [theoriens.com]
-> the guy in the picture above could be charging his cell phone or ipod while he walks if he uses one of these new devices [cnet news]
-> very interesting way to compare the world’s religions [religionfacts.org]
-> maybe dubai’s punishment for making women wear a burqa and walk behind the men is that now they are facing one of the biggest financial meltdowns in history [denver post photoblog]
-> considering people’s attention spans these days, it’s miraculous that they spend the time to write such lengthy notes and leave them on people’s windshields [theangered.com]
-> the zeppelin ‘eureka’ is based in the bay area and you can rent it out for small groups and take a zep tour. here are some great hi-res pics (example below) from a recent trip [comcast.com]
that’s gonna take a while to defrost
i’m glad it doesn’t snow where i live. i don’t mind having to drive a couple hours for the kids to play in the snow.

doyle boys (almost) hike up mission peak
to cap our winter break, the four doyle men hiked up mission peak here in fremont. we picked the more leisurely ohlone college trailhead instead of the shorter, steeper stanford ave trailhead because of the kids. that was sort of the problem – it was almost too leisurely and mateo fell asleep about halfway through, which sort of aborted the trip. i don’t know if i could lug that 30lb wet noodle all the way up the rest of the way, even at that granny incline. i think we’ll try again soon, leaving earlier in the morning so we can make it back down before the boys have to take their naps.
the boys got a 2x dose of grandpa this christmas as grandpa hall came down from portland for the holiday and they got to hike today with grandpa doyle.
Happy MMX!
don’t get caught doing something embarrassing in your New Year’s party picture!
