One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Orange CA 2006 Johnny Rebs


On this day in 2006 we took our niece Erika to Johnny Rebs in Orange. She got to color, play with her My Pretty Ponies and eat good Southern food. It was a good night.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Morrow Bay CA

On this day in 2006 Donna and I were on Vacation on our way to San Francisco. Little did we know that we would be living in San Francisco just 6 short months later. The trip helped us make the decision to pack up and move to SF for a new adventure at LucasArts.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

San Diego CA The San Diego Zoo

On this day in 2006 we were in San Diego visiting The San Diego Zoo for Donna's Birthday (Happy Birthday Donna!). We purchased some nectar to feed the birds. They swarm all over you to get to it and screech in your ear when you run out of nectar.

Anaheim CA Disneyland

On this day in 2006 Donna and I were visiting Disneyland. I am pretty sure it is the Monsters Inc. ride at Disney's California Adventure. If I am wrong I am sure one of my sharp eyed Disney Peeps will correct me.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Costa Mesa CA David's Bridal Shop

On this day in 2006 I was hanging with my awesome wife while she tried on Bride's Maid Gowns. It was in preparation for an up and coming wedding that she was going to be in. The wedding didn't end up going off but at least I have this photo.

Orange CA Our House


On this day Larry was enjoying his synthetic pig ear on his pink dot. Our house has a room with green indoor outdoor carpet so we bought some pink dot carpets at Ikea to liven things up.

On this day in 2006 we took photos of Donna's latest knitting project. She has the skillz. Once the projects are done they are sent to friends and family for enjoyment.

On this day we decorated our Howard Lederer sign with stuff. He is wearing a Krispy Kreme hat and eating Fatburger Fries. The following day he was sporting a sign that said, "I'm all in for fried foods."

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Irvine CA Point of View


On this day in 2006 we were finishing up a poker video game. This is an awesome set up that allowed us to test a 6-12 players at once. Our game supported tournaments with up to 24 players (if memory serves) and we were able to test 12 players on our end and then we had a large group of testers at Crave helping us out on their end. It was a lot of fun. In the photo Jon is testing a PSP connectivity issue.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Tustin CA The Tustin Chili Festival

On this day in 2006 we didn't know it but we were prepping for San Francisco. We decided to get adventures and go to the Tustin Chili Festival. This was very novel for us back then but now we are at this type of thing all the time in San Francisco. It was fun but we weren't that impressed by the Chili. I guess we were there too early. Donna ended up getting a mouth full of dry chili powder in one of her bites of chili.

Orange CA Our Front Yard



On this day in 2006 I think it was Mother's Day and we were prepping to have the family come over. I noticed this very large (for Orange) spider in our front yard on a some flowers so I took a picture.

One A Day - On This Day in 2006

Los Angeles CA E3

On this day Tony turned in is Pirates token for a big prize. In 2005 they gave away a Pirate Token for The Pirates of the Caribbean game based on the Johnny Depp movie. The coin stated that if you brought it back the following year you would get a prize. The prize was some of the nicest E3 swag I have seen. A backpack, poster and quite a few other things. Nice work Tony!

Orange CA Our Garden

On this day we purchased a bunch of lady bugs and released them into our garden. It was fun seeing 100s of lady bugs in such a small area. A few days later there were only a few left so I guess we did the neighborhood a favor too.

On this day in 2006 a wasp tried to eat our Pea Trellis. He was able to take a few bites at a time but didn't do much damage.

Orange CA Inside our scanner


On this day in 2006 I felt the need to scan as many of my p0ker chips as I could. I take a poker chip from each casino I play at. It turns a fun hobby into an even more fun hobby. I have chips from 5 different states and many many different casinos. The colors didn't turn out very well in this but I didn't think that I would be posting it on the interwebs for the world to see at the time I did it.

On this day the "Gold Fish Cracker Prop Bet" went off without a hitch. It was an eating contest that seemed to be harder than you think it would be. Gold Fish Crackers don't go down very quickly without a liquid which was not allowed.

Seattle WA Somewhere near the bottom of the Space Needle

On this day in 2006 I was on a business trip to Seattle to visit Microsoft and Nintendo. We were heading home but we had half a day to site see so we went to the Space Needle and ran into Becca, Josh and my Mom. What an amazing coincidence!

On this day in 2009 Lea was up for GDC. We decided to get a group of us to meet at The Irish Bank. It was a good decision and we had a great time.

Irvine CA Point of View


On this day in 2006 Tony and I called up Jeff to see if he could do some voice over work for us for the poker game. Jeff excitedly said yes. Payment was a credit in the game and lunch at Chili's. It was a good deal for everyone.

Orange CA Our Backyard

On this day in 2006 we continued to pimp our garden. Tom really liked the sun warmed bag of wood chips. I felt bad asking him to get up so we could spread them out.
