levi stadiumSo Levi Strauss Co. made the news this week by claiming the naming rights to the new San Francisco 49er stadium being built in Santa Clara.  I currently work in Sunnyvale so I pass it a lot when I’m out in the field and let me tell you what, it’s a sight to see.  I’ve never seen such a large structure go up so quickly.  Click the link below to read more and click the photo above to embiggen.

Pride Night 2013 at California’s Great America is Friday May 24th

Posted on May 9, 2013 by | 1 Comment

The weather is getting warmer in the Bay Area and what a great way to start getting into the Pride season.  This isn’t an “unofficial” gay night, like some others, it’s a bona fide public event endorsed and supported by California’s Great America.  It’s my birthday weekend so I’m going!!!  :-)

Side note: Isn’t Perry pro-secession?

I really don’t have anything else to say about this. Or I do, but I would rather not pull out any more of my hair. Video after the jump. Continue reading →

Sweet and seemingly realistic technology and marriage post. Enjoy! P.S. I did add some words of wisdom, you could say to this post!

Forgive me for the really long title.

I found this image on my facebook page. I thought it was pretty funny. With all the technology in the world these days that it seems like almost everyone has, I believe that this wouldn’t just be the case for same sex couples or polyamorous couples. Yeah, technology is great, and it often makes things easier and makes it easier to keep in contact with friends, family, and loved ones, but sometimes I feel like our world depends on technology so much, that they either forget they have a brain, or they forget to use it.
