LEGOLAND is no DisneyLand
My wife scored some free tickets to LEGOLAND that were going to expire yesterday, so since we had nothing else to do, we spent a few hours there. It cost us $12 to park so even spending a few hours there was worth it.

Putting the Ark back into storage
I've written about rain in San Diego before and every year, we hear the same thing on the news about flooding. Why is this news? It happens EVERY year in the same places. Yes, it rained a lot. Now the sun is out, move along.

Money isn't everything
"Money isn't everything" is typically a line I hear people say when they don't have money and think that money wouldn't help them. After many years of working like crazy, I've come to some realizations and it really starts with that line. I think that it's taken me a long time to come to this realization, others would say that I've been lucky in coming to this realization quickly!

Review: Brother 7840W Multifunction Printer
I've been a huge opponent of consumer grade all-in-one devices (printer, scanner, copy, fax), so when I was talking to some friends at lunch and they recommended Brother devices, I had to see for myself. My biggest complaint on these devices is that the drivers are just awful and perform poorly. I picked up a Brother MFC-7840W
from Office Depot that was on sale for $229 (which is apparently now the regular price). I read Apple's support article on which devices had support built into Mac OS X 10.6; a few years back at WWDC, Apple said that Snow Leopard would have much better scanner support, so having drivers included in the OS meant that at least I could blame Apple if it didn't work well.
