Marc 2006-08-18T10:55:26-05:00 Another greater than, less than, equal to pondering http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001789.html Which are there more of in America... toilets or asses? Could everyone in the country sit down on a toilet at the same time? I'm guessing that there are more asses than toilets. If you figure that each house probably... Marc 2006-06-30T15:32:28-05:00 Economics http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001788.html Say there are X dollars in the whole wide world. Does that number increase, decrease, or stay the same over time? If it increases, where does the value come from? If it decreases, where does the value go? I don't... Marc 2006-06-30T15:21:12-05:00 Two Thousand Five http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001563.html I am not one for New Year's resolutions. However, this year I feel a little bit like making some. 1) Be more friendly. I have been known to say, "I don't like people." Well, I'm going to try and change... Marc 2005-01-04T15:22:36-05:00 Don't wake me http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001560.html I once tasted sleep and it was good. No longer. J has been waking us up. I love him, but I can get at least a little bit grouchy when my slumber is disturbed. Little J was resisting a diaper... Marc 2004-12-06T16:46:44-05:00 One more year to be trusted http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001557.html When I woke up this morning, my lovely wife asked me, "Do you feel another year older?" My response was a definitive "Yes." Kate has been asking me this question on my birthday, probably since I've known her. She says... Marc 2004-11-05T15:52:57-05:00 Just Business http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001555.html The move is complete. Well, all of our stuff is in one location now. We've just got to unpack everything. As part of the move, we decided to re-evaluate our phone/Internet/cable services. It turns out that SBC provides local phone,... Marc 2004-11-01T10:03:07-05:00 New J Pictures http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001549.html Well, it appears that we did have a bunch of pictures in the archives. We're having problems with our camera right now. First, the battery doesn't last longer than half-a-minute. Second, it isn't transferring the pictures to the computer correctly.... Marc 2004-10-19T22:40:39-05:00 Erratic hand motions http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001546.html Well, I think it's official now... J is waving. At first it just seemed a little random, but now it's much more consistent. Arm in the air. Hand moving back and forth. An alternate method is to rotate wrist with...

This happens even if I've never had a bad thought about that person... Marc 2004-10-04T10:40:58-05:00 Debate http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001544.html What happened to all those rules? Umm... Let's make this next one 30 seconds. Does that sound good to you guys? Senator Kerry? President Bush? All right, 30 seconds. How would you fix the world?... Marc 2004-09-30T21:46:01-05:00 More Order http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001543.html First the Emmys. It seems silly to honor these people for doing such great acting jobs (actually, the sentence could end right there) and then cut them off after they've spoken for 30 seconds. Don't you think those people have...

They're in Singapore, so it was some crazy candy. Choco-babies and other such things. I just loved these two wrappers so I had to post them... Marc 2004-09-14T21:42:15-05:00 Man, inflation really drives the prices up http://www.punkly.com/shmegegie/archives/001541.html Sanna said, "What kind of house did you buy?" I didn't know. So, we looked it up. It's called an American Foursquare (a room in every corner of the house, pretty much). In the early 20th century, Sears sold house...
