My Xbox 360 Died

Saturday is the day my wife works, and Daddy gets to take care of Samantha. As that’s gone on awhile now, I’ve gotten better at it, and I find true enjoyment at spending time with my daughter, and watching her grow up right in front of me. Still, I do enjoy nap time. :) So […]

Raping a Dead Guy

You’d never actually want to do that, but that’s what someone is doing to Jimi Hendrix. The best way to honor one of our best all time guitarists is to name some sort of energy drink after him, isn’t it? I mean why not dig up his corpse, and set what’s left on fire? Wouldn’t […]

Jack in the Box is for drunks and stoners

Ran across a rather funny entry on a baseball blog I read daily. It’s actually about fast food joints in the United States. This article covers the author’s opinions on the majors (McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy’s, etc), and other smaller regional places like Dairy Queen, Sonic, White Castle, and Jack in the Box. It’s quite […]

Several years ago my wife and I ran across a band by the name of Wayanay Inka at the State Fair of Texas. We got rather enamoured with them, and their appearances at the State Fair were one of our favorite things to look forward to. Unfortunately in 2005 and 2006 they were not asked […]

The popularity of YouTube has given rise to collections like this. This video is taken from an article called “The 50 Greatest TV Commercials of the 80’s“. Given the 80’s happened when I was 15-25, I remember just about all of this stuff. A huge trip down memory lane for someone who grew up in […]

Robbing banks

Anyone who knows me knows I get a boatload of email, and of course, insane amounts of spam. The last time I tracked it, I had something like half a million pieces of it myself in a calendar year – so I see a lot of it. Given I do professional work in email, I […]

Walk Like an Egyptian

My wife and I just got done watching one of those “Top 100” things on VH1 Classic, as that’s what they do best. This one was specifically about 80’s music, and after watching it, I have this random comment to make: The Lyrics for “Walk like an Egyptian” are quite stupid if you try and […]

Pegasus Mail – SOS!

byJoe Siegler
Posted on December 5, 2006December 14, 2022

I’ve been using Pegasus Mail forever. It is my preferred email client – I believe it’s far superior in every way to most other commercial apps. Because of it’s old school method of dealing with email, it’s not subject to all the viruses and worms that plague more modern clients (hello Microsoft). Anyway, I read […]

After Forever

Have you ever thought about your soul – can it be saved? Or perhaps you think that when you’re dead you just stay in your grave Is God just a thought within your head or is he a part of you? Is Christ just a name that you read in a book when you were […]

My anniversary

byJoe Siegler
Posted on October 27, 2006December 14, 2022

Yesterday was my 10th anniversary. I got married to my wife on October 26, 1996. I swear, it does NOT feel like 10 years have passed. 5 or 6 perhaps, but not 10. Generally when guys make this kind of public statement, there’s some gigantic profession of their love for their woman. That’s not why […]
