I finally finished my move and now have the internet so that helps free up some time.<br /><br />I've been to weddings and memorial services in the past month - two very different sides of a reality check for Ben. I think its time to get rid of my Never-Never Land ideals. I like to dub my new plan - Plan C. I'm ready for it - and so should the world<br /><br /><br /><br />-B<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5331457942896936840-4988714512215159913?l=nerdyneb.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nebjaminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05979485936271709412noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331457942896936840.post-33704727723712212842008-08-21T17:21:00.000-07:002008-08-21T17:23:08.631-07:00Ok -<br /><br />so now I just signed up for a new blogging thing -of the mobile variety<br /><br />its over at radar.net<br /><br />and then I have this blog, and then myspace<br />and I'm also a contributor to the Getwreckt blog<br /><br /><br />phew - things are going to get busy real quick here<br /><br /><br />anyways - back in CA for a bit<br />I will take lots of pics<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5331457942896936840-3370472772371221284?l=nerdyneb.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nebjaminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05979485936271709412noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331457942896936840.post-12618383711693003422008-08-10T17:05:00.001-07:002008-08-10T17:11:40.682-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DNu7LLdI/AAAAAAAAABU/m92og9CNAjc/s1600-h/P8020107.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233045563985571282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="325" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DNu7LLdI/AAAAAAAAABU/m92og9CNAjc/s400/P8020107.JPG" width="437" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOF6_rDI/AAAAAAAAABc/kLs7cPVnI2w/s1600-h/P8020100.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233045570158832690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="339" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOF6_rDI/AAAAAAAAABc/kLs7cPVnI2w/s400/P8020100.JPG" width="466" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOi5tIcI/AAAAAAAAABk/KYt3WMD663A/s1600-h/P8020109.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233045577938051522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 532px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 362px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="326" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOi5tIcI/AAAAAAAAABk/KYt3WMD663A/s400/P8020109.JPG" width="444" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOwNNMdI/AAAAAAAAABs/VKoQbAwUiDQ/s1600-h/P8020113.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233045581509505490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DOwNNMdI/AAAAAAAAABs/VKoQbAwUiDQ/s400/P8020113.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DPDq1U3I/AAAAAAAAAB0/HWl7Li7pBgo/s1600-h/P8020115.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5233045586734044018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SJ-DPDq1U3I/AAAAAAAAAB0/HWl7Li7pBgo/s400/P8020115.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5331457942896936840-1261838371169300342?l=nerdyneb.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nebjaminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05979485936271709412noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331457942896936840.post-54365220651985564642008-07-28T21:49:00.000-07:002008-07-28T22:17:22.358-07:00So this past weekend - I went on a road-trip with my roomie Mr. Jason Mentzer. We headed out to Medford, OR to see a lady friend of his. I often kick myself for never getting out enough and seeing what this state has to offer. Its like I only make 3 trips a year to another part of OR - Hell, I make more trips back the ol' Bay.<br /><div><div><div></div><div>Anyways we left after work on Friday - and hit the road. I actually took some pics this time!</div><div></div><div>Here is a wonderful citizen of our fine state<br /></div><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228295192985643714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6ixv7KqsI/AAAAAAAAAAM/RN7GidIaklc/s320/P7250091.JPG" border="0" /><br /><div>I think the gun is my favorite part. You probably cant see the whole bumper sticker but it says "Love My Country, Fear My Government"</div><br /><div>Yeah!</div><div></div><div>Here is another pic of us on the road</div><br /><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228296028021749346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6jiWrSdmI/AAAAAAAAAAU/qtpdZ5Rx5pQ/s400/0725081705.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><div>Anyways - We got a sweet deal for lodging thanks to my awesome sister. Springhill Suites are pretty kick ass - we got a nice LCD tv for our room!</div><br /><div>The night was fairly short - meet the lady friend. She seemed nice enough</div><br /><div>Next day - we started off with a task I seem to always complete in a strange town.......... check out the local mall.</div><br /><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228296421590197106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6j5Q1UY3I/AAAAAAAAAAc/CWX64ZU5enU/s400/0726081023.jpg" border="0" /></div><br /><br /><br /><div>Anyways after the mall - we headed to the OREGON VORTEX!!!!</div><br /><div>Ever been to the Mystery Spot in Santa Cruz......... we this is exactly the same thing! A complete waste of 9 dollars. Ok, thats not fair - our trip did provide some good material for jokes throughout the rest of our trip.<br /><br />Here are some vortex pics:<br /></div><div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228297042709143906" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6kdarnYWI/AAAAAAAAAAs/ZyAHmorCfYk/s400/0726081342a.jpg" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228297031182967634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6kcvvj41I/AAAAAAAAAAk/RWKEfFVDD_Q/s400/0726081343.jpg" border="0" /> Check out my souvenir!</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228297774236392930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6lH_1TXeI/AAAAAAAAAA0/CGFuq4cedtM/s400/P7260094.JPG" border="0" /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Nice trip to Applebee's after the Vortex - here is a pic of the kids<br /><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228298691709341538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6l9Zr5j2I/AAAAAAAAAA8/2wRr_3NyuYQ/s400/0726081534.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Me &amp; Jason went to see the Dark Knight later that day and it kicked major ass - just like everyone said. Later that evening we went to a local bar called - SHANANIGANS!! Awesome huh? I included some crappy cell phone pics from inside the bar - including one that I tried to have taken of me under the lighted sign<br /><br />Actually my new cell took most of these photos so I think it did ok.<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228298700389727042" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6l96Bdu0I/AAAAAAAAABE/jWLq6hTQd5s/s400/0726082359.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228298700010414978" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tE0v7_kGLGA/SI6l94nB44I/AAAAAAAAABM/2U6903k_yFs/s400/0727080021.jpg" border="0" /></p><p>Anyways - Thats a wrap on this trip for now.</p><p>adios</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5331457942896936840-5436522065198556464?l=nerdyneb.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nebjaminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05979485936271709412noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5331457942896936840.post-24149181192416907382008-07-07T16:56:00.000-07:002008-07-07T16:57:35.661-07:00I'm testing out this new blog location<br />Maybe I can do some mobile blog......<br />We'll find out<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5331457942896936840-2414918119241690738?l=nerdyneb.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nebjaminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05979485936271709412noreply@blogger.com0
