The Do-It-Yourself Conundrum

Growing up I learned that sometimes it was better to learn how to something yourself as opposed to paying someone else. This was most apparent with me helping my father work on the car in the past 10 years. Although the motivation was primarily financial, many times after completing some challenging work there was a great deal of fulfillment. I'd feel satisfied knowing I did something right and I learned something useful in the process. There will always be part of me that wants [...]

Austin 2005: Better Late than Never

This is one for the memory books. I had a blast, Austin is great. The people are nice, the food is rich and the everything seems like it's in motion.

Unfortunately everything was either wardened off or it was just too crowded. The main spots were the Smithsonian Air and Space museum and Natural History museum. Very fascinating.

Off to Virginia

Since it was July 4rth, and my heart felt the need to pay respect to this fabulous country, I am going to celebrate July 4rth weekend in our nation's capital. Okay fine, I'm not good at telling jokes. Anyways, my brother and I are visiting our other brother in Virginia. (Can you keep count of the Brothers Miranda?) Should be a nice getaway. All packed and leaving in a little bit. If you need to get in contact with me, email, of course it [...]
