Tired of tying your shoelaces the same old way: bunny goes under log, over the bridge, yada, yada, yada? Fret no more! Ian Fieggan has a wonderful site on fantastic new ways to secure those shoes and amaze your friends. (Disclaimer: Shoes are apparently required.)

And I’m Back

Posted by Juicio on March 31st, 2006

Well, our last big snow storm of the season has come and gone. It closed most schools around Cincinnati, which is no big surprise since the locals get scared of an inch or two. Xavier even closed for the day, but not night classes. Oh, no. Grad students must suffer through […]

Midterms!

Posted by Juicio on February 26th, 2006

I apologize for not updating for the last week. Instead, I have been forced to devote my life to that ever-demanding dominatrix: grad school. So, after a long week of studying and testing on 16th Century arguments about predestination and sacraments, I have regained my freedom. I think Toothpaste For Dinner sums […]

Home Again, Cold Again

Posted by Juicio on February 13th, 2006

I just rolled back into the Cinci late this afternoon, which was shortly followed by a three-hour nap. Already, I miss the perfect weather, rolling hills, and emerald landscape of northern California. On Saturday night, Rahul and I went to visit Cathie in Napa Valley. Cathie is the link between the two […]

70 Degrees

Posted by Juicio on February 10th, 2006

70 degrees and sunny. That’s the weather here in Elk Grove, California.
And it’s wonderful. When I left Cincinnati yesterday at 4am, it was snowing. James, Rahul, and I are having our DispatchThis family retreat this week, discussing the future of our company. So far it’s been good. Christie, […]

Hotlinking: Naughty Naughty

Posted by Juicio on February 4th, 2006

So, it seems as Leaving Only Footprints continues to get more and more popular, so does its images. Last month, I noticed that my visitor stats were kind of funky and discovered dozens of sites linking to just my pictures. This is called direct linking or hotlinking. Instead of hosting an image […]

Sorry that I haven’t posted for a few days. I’ve been busy with work and some side projects while getting ready for this week’s impending indictments. But until I get a little more time, here’s a little news round-up:
First, Rachel’s grandparents live in Cocoa, Florida. Due to Hurricane Wilma, this was their […]

Server Upgrades

Posted by Juicio on October 17th, 2005

I just got an e-mail from Gary that an old site I helped setup got hacked and compromised the computer science server, which also reminded me to upgrade security here. So, Leaving Only Footprints might be down for a little bit in the wee hours of the night. There should be no visual […]

Speaking of Sick….

Posted by Juicio on October 6th, 2005

I think my puppy has come down with something. She keeps shaking her head and scratching one of her ears. When she stayed with Scot and Cliff once, they talked about the same symptoms.

What they didn’t mention, though, was the mucus. Luckily, my lab-greyhound-some other breed mutt does not slobber. Yet, […]

The Advantages To Being An Introvert

Posted by Juicio on October 4th, 2005

Rahul, being brilliantly amused at my friends’ use of the Myers-Briggs system, found this wonderful article on LifeHack.org discussing the top ten advantages to being an introvert. From Introvert Advantage, a site dedicated to the book “The Introvert Advantage: How to Thrive in an Extrovert World”, here they are:
The Top Ten Advantages Introverts Possess
