U/ST class: Software Analysis and Design Tools – OVER!
Last night of class (System Analysis and Design Tools) was last night, submitted my video presentation on time (via YouTube, will share the link – haha – later), had a cold so my voice was pretty raw and didn’t follow my script as much as I should’ve, but overall, I think I did a pretty […]
Web Page Updated: Library / Model Railroading Books!
Check out this webpage of mine – I’ve just updated it with a list of duplicate MRR books that I’m trying to “get rid of” – either by sharing with my fellow MRR’s, selling on e-bay or donating to the Kalmbach Library (NMRA). Contact me if you have any interest in owning one or more […]

Anyway, One I created it, I didn’t […]
Class #3 at Saint Thomas: Systems Analysis & Design Tools

So far, the instructor is a hoot and based on the first night, he should make this topic quite interesting. There are almost twenty […]

A serious topic today – coming from my blog/website. Kelsey and I went to see “The Butler” last night at MOA. I had heard some good stuff about it and knew what it was going to be about, but didn’t know who was going to be staring in it, and did NOT read any reviews […]
