One A Day - On This Day in 2008

San Bruno CA

On this day in 2008 we went to a mall just off of Bart. Inside is one of those indoor playgrounds you often find at malls. What you don't often find is the playground being Horse Racing themed. Pretty cool in my opinion but I don't know if I would want my kids exposed to horse racing at an early age.

One A Day - On This Day in 2004

Orange CA


On this day in 2004 we received this flier with an interesting offer. Take a loot at it and see if you can see it. If you can't (or don't feel like playing along) scroll down for the answer.












0% off Birthday Party! What an amazing deal. Needless to say we booked our next 10 birthdays before they had a chance to retract the offer.

One A Day - On This Day in 2004

Irvine CA

On this day in 2004 I saw a parked truck. There is nothing really strange about a parked truck until you see where it is parked. This truck is strangely parked. I wondered how it got like that. Was it a prank? Were they afraid the truck was going to be stolen?

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Las Vegas NV Classic Gaming Expo

On this day in 2003 Donna and I were still in Las Vegas. They had a classic gaming museum with a lot of cool stuff to look at. Out of all of the cool things I chose to post a picture of an Asteroids costume... This piece of history just shows how big video games were back then. Asteroids was so popular that some kid wanted to dress up as an asteroid for Halloween. Not the guy in the space ship shooting the asteroids, not the triangular space ship (which is arguably the star of the game) but the asteroid. Here's your candy crater face.

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Irvine CA

On this day I saw one of the worst limos ever. Terrible! Now if they had stretched a Dodge Dart and added flames that would be a different story.

Irvine CA Point of View BBQ

On this day in 2004 we used a Storage Drive as a caster. It worked rather well and I am sure the BBQ was yummy.

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Irvine CA

On this day in 2003 I saw this silly item. A rocking chair for the sand. I'm not sure how that works. All the sand I have ever been on would not allow much rocking. I didn't buy it even though it was on sale.

One A Day - On This Day in 2007

San Francisco CA China Town

On this day in 2007 the Star Wars license was skirted in China Town. What do you do when your Millennium Falcon has Mynock pee stains? Why you shoot over to China Town and grab some Star Force Steel Wool.

One A Day - On This Day in 2003

Irvine CA Point of View Parking Lot


On this day in 2003 people that shared parking lots with us when I was at Point of View Inc. decided that their cars were nicer than ours and needed to take up 2 parking spots. My car (the one on the right) was nice enough to drive up on the curb and fit into one of those half parking spots. A few minuets later a friend with an equally nice car as mine parked to the left of the car. We all had a good laugh watching the person try to get into their car at 5pm. It made the long night to follow go much quicker.

One A Day - On This Day in 2005

Orange CA Our House and Party Poker

On this day in 2005 the games were good on Party Poker. It was the middle of the poker boom and no one knew how to play including me. If you know anything about poker your mouth should be watering just looking at this screen shot.

On this day in 2005 Star Wars was on everyone's mind and on everyone's cracker box.

One A Day - On This Day in 2008

San Francisco CA The 45 Line

On this day in 2008 the 22 Filmore had trouble rounding the corner and took out a light pole. I didn't see it happen but I was able to get a shot of it from the back of my bus as we pulled away pointing and laughing (not really).

One A Day - On This Day in 2004

San Jose CA GDC

On this day in 2004.......Epic Fail was in the air. Everyone saw it but no one did anything about it. 4 years later Apple did it right and the rest is history.

One A Day - On This Day in 2004

Scottsdale AZ Some Mexican Restaurant

On this day I found out that there are some weird Men's rooms in the world. I had a hard time doing my business because I felt like I was being watched....
