  • My arsenal

    For quite some time now, I’ve been intending to post pictures of my arsenal. I’ve FINALLY got around to getting those pictures taken and here they are!

  • First 600 of the season

    It’s taken me 14 weeks of league, but I FINALLY broke the 600 mark! I finished the night with a 634, which seems to about where I tend to finish if I bowl 600’s.  Weird. So I started the night with my Twisted Fury, shooting 10 and 5 and standing on 20, making my lay…

  • It always the simplest thing!

    I’ve been trying for MONTHS to get the very excellent XDebug PHP extension, written and maintained the PHP Jedi Master, Derick Rethans. XDebug offers some serious debugging capabilities to PHP that are second to none. It also offers some excellent profiling tools, which I should really make better use of in development. It’s easy to see…

  • Christmas Eve No Tap Tournament

    Okay, almost. The tournament was actually on December 23, but what was I gonna say? Christmas Eve Eve No Tap Tournament? I didn’t think so… Anyway, we held a no tap tournament at Fugate’s Bowl-a-rama. We didn’t get quite the same turn out as the Thanksgiving day Tournament, but it was a still a good…

  • Bowling 101 – Don’t miss easy spares

    These past 3 months of league have been trying to say the least. I’ve been struggling to put games together, I’ve been struggling to find consistency with my release and I’ve been struggling to consistently shoot spares. Now, I know a good portion of the difficulties have come from the number of changes I made…

  • Ah, the first snow of the season

    Seeing as I’m originally from a slightly more temperate region of the globe, waking up to find a fresh blanket of snow on the lawn is still both very strange and very exciting. I love that you go to bed seeing what would ordinarily be out your window and wake in the morning to a…

  • Home, Sweet home. Sort of.

    This last weekend has been a busy one for us. We found out on Saturday afternoon that the tenants of the house we were wanting to move in to, which incidently belongs to my mother-in-law, would be completely moved out by the end of that day, meaning we could start moving stuff in on Sunday.

  • How to destroy a game in four frames…

    Last night, we bowled in our regular Sunday League trio. Earlier that night, I had stripped and oiled the lanes, and bowled a couple of  practice games. The practice games went well. I threw something like 6 in a row in my first one, so I knew I had a good line and good ball…

  • Thanksgiving Tournament at Fugate’s

    This Thanksgiving, we held a No-Tap tournament at Fugate’s Bowl-a-rama. This comes less than a week after the passing of Fred Fugate, the owner and proprietor of the Bowling center. It was hard to really get motivated to work on the lanes, knowing that Fred wouldn’t be there and that he had buried just 4…

  • A virtualized development environment

    For quite sometime now, I’ve been developing all the projects I’ve been working on directly on my machine. This is handy for a number of reasons, the most important of those reasons being that I don’t have to be online while I’m working and I don’t have to upload to any servers.
