Documenting the diet…

As my friends and family know, I’ve started a diet in order to lose weight, a lot of weight actually – I want to get down to 185 from about 250.  I’ve decided to blog about it in order to keep a personal journal and keep myself going, so I’ve opened up Mike’s Calorie Burn [...]

Some excitement at work today…

May 24th, 2009 in General by mkohary 0

I’m a service operations center engineer, and I work odd hours – Sunday through Tuesday and every other Wednesday, 12-hour shifts.  Normally, Sundays are very slow and frequently boring, but today the fire alarm went off and my co-worker and I went packing outside.  We knew right away it was no drill, as we hadn’t [...]

Git yerself some free KFC…

Think you’re too healthy?  Well, KFC will help resolve that problem with free chicken! Well, ok, actually it is kind of healthy compared to KFC’s usual fried fare.  This is only good for their new grilled chicken, and no, you don’t get any choice as to the free food you receive.  But it’s still a [...]

Michael J. Fox is an actor of considerable talent, who in recent years has been struck down and out of his profession by Parkinson’s Disease, a disease that has taken much more from him than just his career, and which may eventually take his life (although PD is not in and of itself classified as “fatal”, [...]

Chris Farley, 1964-1997

December 19th, 2007 in General by mkohary 0

10 years ago yesterday, we lost comedian Chris Farley at the young age of 33.  Do yourself a favor and read this awesome retrospective in memory of the man.  It’s pretty easy to forget that celebrities aren’t actually bigger-than-life, that they’re human beings just like the rest of us, and articles like this help us [...]

A good weekend…

July 16th, 2007 in General by mkohary 5

We went to Vasa Park Resort on Lake Sammamish for my company picnic on Sunday.  Nice weather, around 80 but with some clouds to break up the sun.  Good food, nice playground, but most importantly, great water and swim area.  The kids had lots of fun; I’ll post pictures shortly. My new Mac Pro is on the [...]
