WebHostingPad - Review – Think Twice…Better Yet Don’t Do It!

WebHostingPad – Review – Think Twice…Better Yet Don’t Do It!

In January I set out to find a new web host and at that time actually entered into an agreement with WebHostingPad.com (I’m not even giving them the courtesy of a backlink).  I should have been wary and backed out of my agreement as soon as I discovered that their pre-sales “chat” representative had misrepresented [...]

Public Art…

Public Art…

“A city with public art is a city that thinks and feels” (nnpaf.org) – The statement says a lot!  When you walk down a city street or visit a city park and see a unique piece or artwork or sculpture on display what do you think?  How does it make you feel?  But more importantly, [...]

Aquariums – We Need One in Spokane

Aquariums – We Need One in Spokane

There is an old city owned building in downtown Spokane, right on the Spokane river.  The building used to belong to the YMCA and sits along a prime piece of real estate… there were/are a number of propositions for this building including it being torn down and the land becoming part of Riverfront Park as [...]

What Happened to the Deep Lake Pages?

What Happened to the Deep Lake Pages?

It was time for me to change webhosts… but that is another story that I will probably end up sharing sometime.  In the process of making this move I decided that the pages that were associated with Deep Lake really were separate from Projects Possible and the people that were viewing those pages were really [...]

Review – “Line Notes” by Thank You 5

Paper pushing and theatre productions seem to go hand in hand. There are myriads of things that go into a production, everything from audition forms and cast lists to sign-in sheets and line notes.  As a relative novice to theatre and a seasoned professional in the software industry I began a search to find a [...]

545 People

The article that your will find below was emailed to me.  I’m not sure when it was published but there is some interesting truth in what Charlie Reese discusses.  These 545 people create problems that they then need to find creative ways to solve.  Most of the creativity as of late is to spend money [...]

Wine Making Journey – First the Equipment

For a new wine maker or in my case for my jump back into the hobby in the late fall when hand picked fruit is not readily available, I would recommend that you try a wine kit.   There are a lot of these out there from various manufacturers.   They contain virtually everything (except equipment and [...]

Renewed my Wine Making…

Back in the mid to late 1990′s I used to be a wine maker.  I liked this pretty minor foray into chemistry that produced an end result that I could drink… well at least I thought I could.  (Many of those earlier batches were less than desirable.)  Home wine making has really changed very little [...]

Made in the USA

I had a co-worker send me an email the other day that was about purchasing American made products.   It was actually one of those emails that made me go… hmmmm…. When purchasing Made in the USA I am one of those that has this preconceived notion that whatever the item is will be more expensive.  [...]

Just How Much is a BILLION

Just How Much is a BILLION

I received an email from a business associated that had some of these neat little tidbits below… All it said is that it was from an advertising firm.   If you happen to know or have a link to the original source please let me know. Since our current economic condition here in the USA has [...]
