  After being damaged by a hailstorm earlier this year, Space Shuttle Atlantis ( STS-117 ) is scheduled for a launch date of June 8th - the last day of Tech Ed 2007 - conveniently located in Orlando, FL. Plan accordingly. I'm stretching my stay through... Posted Apr 19 2007, 11:35 AM by wpreston with | with no comments Filed under: Fun, Tech Ed 2007

• Off-topic: Caffeine source

  I voluntarily gave up soda (aka 'pop' for all the Minnesotans I live with) for the past 40 days. It was somewhat challenging for me, but mostly because of the fact that I had no other source of caffeine - not being a coffee drinker. So, in the spirit...

• Parts is Parts

  Taking a cue from one of my co-workers, I decided to pick up a second drive for my laptop - the home one. Finding the drive was easy. Finding an extra hard drive caddy (now that I know that's what they're called) wasn't so easy. Being the reliable customer...

• Windows Mobile Phone

  Earlier this year, I picked up a T-Mobile MDA with Windows Mobile 5.0 - finally allowing me to consolidate phone and PDA hardware after using Palm OS devices since 1998 or so. I originally wanted to write about it then, but life got away from me. One... Posted Sep 06 2006, 12:33 AM by wpreston with | with no comments Filed under: SmartPhone, General, Fun

• LEGO Mania

  Yes why not, I'll jump right into the 'Fun' category. I initially wrote this for an internal posting but it turns out it wouldn't be needed for a few weeks. So, I thought I'd just post it here for now: Friends and family recently tracked down a really... Posted May 07 2006, 04:05 PM by wpreston with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: Fun
