  • Annual Rubik’s cube post

    In looking back at my blog, it seems like I blog about Rubik’s cube cubing about once a year, usually in this February or March time frame. In any case, I whipped out the cube today and fired up JNetCube and got a new record, both in an individual solve as well as a 10…

  • Non rubiks post!

    Yes folks, it’s a non-Rubiks cube related post. We are trying to get back into the Y swing of things. I went running this morning (new 5k record of 28:57) and Carolyn was going to take the kids. Actually last night we decided she was just going to go with the littl’ns but then we…

  • Lasik pt. 2
