WWTBAM 1: The “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” test

Washington, DC, USA Yesterday morning, I got an email from the folks at “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” letting me know that my episode will air next Tuesday, December 06, 2011, NOT tomorrow (Friday 12/02) as was originally scheduled.  So, as they say, “check your local listings!” (Hint: it varies by city, but it’s [...]

A few things happened…

Washington, DC, USA As hard as it is to believe, I’ve had some kind of presence on the web for over a decade now. And, for more than a decade now, that web presence has yo-yoed between being active and neglected. I think that’s how most Internet-folks work. Obviously, for the past couple of years, [...]

2009: Year in Review

What did you do in 2010 that you’d never done before? Adopted a 3am wake-up call as my new routine.  Became a government employee. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I don’t think I made any last year.  This year, I want to waste less, give [...]

Guest blogging and Facebooking

On the MegaBus on I-95 N somewhere in Maryland or Delaware Like a Phoenix (or like Australia), this blog has come back from the the ashes before.  And it will again. But not today. Until I get back to blogging regularly again, you can find me on facebook (if you haven’t already).  I’m http://facebook.com/GaryButterworth But the real [...]

2008: Year In Review

Stratford, NJ, USA I haven’t posted much in a while. You see, ever since I moved in with my grandmom, I was blogging monthly updates about my life with her.  When she passed away, it just didn’t seem right to blog about anything else until I wrote one final recap of her life and my [...]

Nana: 1918-2008

Stratford, NJ, USA My grandmother passed away peacefully last Wednesday evening at the rehabilitation facility in Voorhees where she had been staying temporarily for several weeks.

San Diego, CA, USA 3,000 miles later, we’ve arrived safely at my friend, Dan’s, apartment in San Diego. Once again, I’m beat.  But I’ll post more as soon as I can.

Beating them at their own game

Las Vegas, NV, USA The trip continues to go great! We’re still in Las Vegas, and tonight will be the final leg–the drive to San Diego. We hit the casinos last night, and I doubled my money!  $5 became $10.  lol I haven’t been online much, but that will turn around within the next few [...]

Not in Kansas anymore

Burlington, CO, USA It’s quarter after 1 in the morning here in the Mountain Time Zone.  I’m just about ready to head off to sleep. So far, the road trip is going well. I’ll write more later.  Now, it’s bedtime.

Chicago and Milwaukee Trip Recap in Pictures

Stratford, NJ, USA Better late than never? Before I head off on my next trip, I thought I should finally find time to post the pictures from my last trip. From July 27-30, I was in Chicago. I mainly went to see a baseball game.  But it was my first time in the Windy City, [...]
