Death and Taxes: … by ~mibi on deviantART
DONE! FINALLY!
I’ve spent last weekend contaminating my trusty MacBook Pro with TurboTax and IRS webpages and now, I’ve sent the results of our hard work (my Mac and me, I tend to anthropomorphisize devices I’m a attached to) off to the government.
Paying taxes hurts, especially when you […]

Oh my devoted Astronomy Buffs, space fans and appreciaters of the the night sky, this astro blogger has been woefully sick these past days. I have seen all manner of fluids come forth from this fleshy container… but don’t worry, I won’t gross you out with the details.
My synapses are slogging, trying to […]

Right now, all the cool kids are playing astronomical kickball in Austin this week without me. Sure, they get lots of stuffs to post about, new science discovery-thingys to regurgitate. They even get to podcast. I didn’t see AstroProf in the photo guys, he’s there too lurking behind a laptop at the […]

As you read this, I’m on the road. Interstate 80 to be precise, with a truck load of books, telescopes, computers and other science hoo-hahs I depend on to do my job.
If you’ve never been, I-80 is about as close to driving on a road on Mars as I could imagine, especially the parts […]

Whew! I can hardly believe it. I’ve been at this blogging thing for one year now.
According to my WordPress stats, I’ve posted 264 times and I have 913 comments. (I’m surprised I’ve had 264 things to say, actually). I have 191 people subscribed to my feed and about 650 new people […]

The Dark Energy Survey
Man it’s cold outside. Ordinarily, I would be referring to Colorado, where the past few days have seen five inches of snow and about 20 degrees.
This time, I’m actually referring to the weather in another state: Illinois, where it’s cold, rainy and wet. As I look out of my […]

… is that things never stay the same for long.
I’ve spent last week getting accommodating all of the changes life has recently thrown my way. I’ve been lucky because these changes have all been positive. I’m getting ready to move my entire life 1000 miles to the east. Illinois to be exact […]

Time to move on
This last year has been, without a doubt, one of the strangest in my life. Starting at about the time I posted my Hubble Deep Field video in September 2006, my life started a slow change that has culminated in these past weeks.
It’s so strange how events transpire, one can never […]

One of the best things about life is that nothing stays the same for long. If life were static and unchanging, it just wouldn’t be natural.
Since my last post, my life has changed dramatically, but because I’m a blogger and need to stretch out my posts, I’m going to be annoyingly cryptic here and […]

Al Gore would not approve
Well, at least that’s how I’m justifying the purchase. I recently acquired this RV from a friend who just wanted to get rid of it. I had used it on road trips in the past (but that was when gas was $1.50 a gallon) and really enjoyed it.
I bought […]
