Kerry and Matt were married yesterday in a lovely ceremony at St. Mary’s Church in Burlington. I think the bride was particularly beautiful. :) Congratulations, Matt and Kerry!

Faster is Better

I finally took the plunge and leased a managed server in a very cool co-location facility a few blocks from work. They had an incredible offer I could not pass up. What does this mean to you? Enhanced performance from thedude.com! Faster downloads! More, better, faster! Woo-hoo! Stay tuned for progress reports.

My wonderful friends Tom and Julie gave thedude five(!) home-cooked dinners for his 50th birthday. Tonight was the first. Thanks to all for a lovely time. Dinner and conversation were fabulous.

Thule Radar Screens

Posted on October 1, 2005 by thedude

thule_tower.jpgThis image was shot about 12 miles from Thule at J-Site – home to a part of the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System, or BMEWS. These antennas were about the size of a football field and emitted enough EMF to cause my Walkman Pro to slow dramatically as we drove by on the bus. Scary stuff.

If you look VERY closely, (and squint a bit) you might just make out Radio Mast Thule – one of the world’s tallest structures.
