22/365: 46 – (OH BLEEP!)

February 15, 2022 mack505

Jumping ahead a bit to today. I was a bit late for work thanks to a Subaru. First time in over 20 years, and that one was not my fault either. I'm fine. The Honda, as you can see, is not. Thanks to the magic of cheap dash cams and editing you can experience the… Continue reading 22/365: 46 – (OH BLEEP!) →

First and most importantly: Sebastian.  Sebby is still with us and going strong.  The vet was amazed… Continue reading Truly random musings →

Long before I knew her, Mrs. Mack505 had a habit of naming her cars.  Since we've been married, each of our cars has had a name.  Some have gone on to have nicknames, and nicknames for their nicknames.  The current fleet consists of Emma, Connor, Hans, Featherstone, and the Batmobile. (Plus a pair of motorcycles… Continue reading Whoa Emmett! →

Ram Tough, and a contest (P366 – 2/16)

February 20, 2012 mack505

1993 was a watershed year. Just out of college, I had the whole world before me. I began dating the future Mrs. Mack505 that fall, and then my beloved VW died.It wasn't necessarily a terminal failure, but I had neither the skills nor the money for a major repair. I was off to the local… Continue reading Ram Tough, and a contest (P366 – 2/16) →

Project 366 – week of 2/11

February 16, 2012 mack505

2/11 - One for me, one for her.  If you've been reading the blog for very long you know which is which.   2/12 - Going 'commando' at work.  Sweater, that is.  My sweater has been with me since my first winter in EMS those many years ago.  I finally had paramedic and company patches… Continue reading Project 366 – week of 2/11 →

1/1/11

January 1, 2011 mack505

Today marks the official end of Project 365 for 2010. When I started it on 1/2/10, I had no idea where it would take me. With all of the negative memories from 2010, I'm glad I have a positive photographic record. In the end I missed a few days, and a few others have multiple… Continue reading 1/1/11 →
