Been Busy...

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Just got back from biking/camping yesterday, will work on getting some of those pictures up somewhere, soon.
Meanwhile, I'd also spent some time working on a website for All Access Rigging. The final version is up at
www.allaccessrigging.com. I really need to find some time to
revamp my site here. And work on one here.. Been a busy month and the
trend is going to continue. Livia's birthday, party this weekend, Kevin's wedding next weekend (I'm in it),
and then Dave Matthews Band closing it out on the 31st. And work all in between. House? Maybe...we'll
see...alwyas so many projects.

Still Alive!

And kickin...


Yea, so long overdue for an update - been a while. This are going well,
working on the house still and doing a good bit of biking now that the
weather has broken. Things have been pretty good for the dude. Not
really too much to complain about. Hopefully over the next few days I'll
get some more pictures up - I need to do some consolidation between href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/16293173@N04/">Flickr, href="http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=36465&l=9f3b2&id=727746080">

, and my album.


It looks like it is getting sunny out. Might have to go for a ride.


Get outside and put it up in the air ;o)

So, um...

Update: Yes, the water company fixed the street and sidewalk. Pictures
to come - just too dark to take them now.


Also will have more pictures of the house as soon I upload them.


And if you're still here - I may write something with content and value.
Or not. Don't get your hopes up - I have a hard time following my own
advice, so trust me - Don't do something that I'd do.

Coming tomorrow (or soon) I promise. Seriously.

Sidewalk Saga Continues...

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

It has been three weeks and one day since I contacted Pennsylvania American Water about the growing hole in the sidewalk in front of my house. As you can see from the previous pictures, all they have done is come out and put a sign over the hole. They could have at least filled it with gravel if they're too 'busy' to fix it. Come on - this is getting rediculous. They've told me that it has been escalated as a matter of urgency; I somehow fail to believe that.

In fact, while walking to the bus stop the other day (which is basically just through my backyard), I come to find they (PAW) have the road closed. I jokingly said to one of the guys (who appeared to be in charge; he wasn't doing anything) that after they're done there to come up and fix my sidewalk. He said if they had time, they'd come up and try to put some gravel in it. I didn't expect much - they certainly couldn't repair the sidewalk properly, they didn't have the right equipment.

Obviously, they didn't have time:

I even have a video for your enjoyment:

Nothing has been done yet and PAW cannot yet give me a date.


I've taken some pictures and I'm going to see if they can't get things
done this week. If not, I'm going to have to do something else, but this
needs to be fixed.


Took some pictures today:
