I’ve had this pack for nearly 4 years. I’ve taken it everywhere. I’ve carried most of my geek life in this bag. But today one of the plastic latches broke, where it’s stitched to the shoulder harness, rendering it useless. I’ll try and jerry rig something, but I’m still in mourning. If you ever need a great back pack that has an incredible amount of space and is very laptop friendly, this is the one for you.

Today I sent two of my Daughters off to a Pioneer Trek. As part of a hybred family they will push a wooden cart full of gear and walk along the same trail Moromon Pioneers did around 1856. Each girl has a camera so I hope they take a lot of pictures. I also hope they use their journals to record all that happens.

So over the weekend I had a Birthday party and the family decided I needed a bunch of old timer stuff. Being bald and proud of it, this was my favorite.

Today is my 40th birthday. Yee Haw. Here are some pics from the party last night.

Ok this weeks prop goes out to a guy who I connected with through Twitter. His name is Glenn, AKA WiredPig. Glenn is a former United States Marine and Police Officer. One of the cool things about Glenn are his posts about fallen Police Officers. What a tribute. I’ve passed Glenn’s URL around to friends who also appreciate his efforts. Take some time to visit Glenn’s site, and contribute when possible.

Glenn I’m proud to stand next to you buddy. oohrah!
