Hello everyone! It's been a LONG time since I made any modifications to my web site... sorry.

The above is a picture taken a few months ago in Utah when I went on a snowboarding trip with my friends Bill, Linda, and Jerry. More pictures to come...

Some recent happenings:
- my friends Bill and Linda are getting married in two days (I am the Best Man, but still haven't written the speech down yet - eek!) - check out their wedding web site

- a colleague/friend is moving away to London (good luck with everything - it's been great!)

- another two of my friends, Shawn and Jacky are expecting a new baby any day now (congrats!)

I know I know... a stupid picture of a scar on my arm... I just thought it was interesting, working on drilling a hole on my computer work desk one day, and scraped myself, only to discover a scar that resembles a smiley face...

Stupid, but still funny enough to bring a :) on my face

A picture of my friends Courtney and Jeremy, on the day of their wedding reception in Luck, Wisconsin.

A truly fun party, in my mind. Met some interesting people as well...

Here's some more information to explain why there hasn't been any updates recently

- I realized that this web site was filling the disk quota allowed for my account... my gracious web host John has granted me some more space - but before I go ahead and create more personal-diary-junk on the internet, I figure I should clean the web site up a bit (such as removing files that are not being used whatsoever)... please be patient as 6 months of pictures will be uploaded SOON.

- I have also been training for a 5k (~3mile) road race that took place last weekend. Actually semi-training since I have been lazy, and sleep always takes precidence over running (BAD!). Of Somehow despite my lack of training (mind-over-matter) I end up being 199 out of 733, averaging about a 8-minute mile... not bad for 10 years of body-abuse from travelling and eating garbage everyday...

- Now the final update - the day after my road race I crewed on my boss' Sonar racing yacht at the American Diabetes Association regatta on Lake Minnetonka. It was in the middle of the two back-to-back race when I realized that I really HURT something... a vist to the doctor and three hours later, the verdict came - "you have a broken rib". Oops. 4 to 6 weeks to heal.
