Bike Ride

I went for a bike ride today while enjoying being unemployed. I rode through Post Falls and into Coeur d'Alene. There has really been a lot of development since I left for school. Though it was a great ride with some beautiful scenery, it was sort of sad because a lot of Idaho's beauty is getting consumed by development. Link to my route is below.

Body Double!

There's no doubt that this Victoria's Secret Model looks like the T-Rex from Jurassic Park. Chris, you know it's true!

Big Changes

So I realize I haven't posted in a very long time, and for that I'm sorry. Since last time, I've switched apartments, terrorized downtown Portland, been in a bachelor auction, almost gone skydiving (twice), ridden my bike up Mt. Hood, finished an ironman (www.ironmancda.com), seen the knee doctor for the Portland Trailblazers, been camping in the San Juan Islands, and yes, now quit my job at HP.

Today is my last day of work until I go to work with some friends I met in college. The short of it is that they've invented a flashlight that recharges in 2 minutes, lasts an hour and a half, and will work for hundreds of thousands of charge cycles. The long of it is at www.ivusinc.com. I'm moving back to Moscow to get in on the ground floor. Maybe we'll be rich, maybe we'll be on the streets in 6 months, but I guarantee it will be an exciting ride, and I'll keep you updated.

I'm going to be using this blog as the medium through which I make my photographs available. So check back.

New Apartment for Mike

Assuming my background check goes through (if you can't tell, that's a joke) here's pics of my new apartment. Unfortunately the golf cart isn't included.

It's official

At the prompting of my good friend Page, I'm posting my news about getting a job. As of last Tuesday, I'm officially employed by the Hewlett-Packard company. I'm moving to Vancouver, Washington to start work on March 26th. So, if any of you reading this are in the Portland area, look me up and come visit.

Puppie Koala Hybrid

I saw this on collegehumor.com with the title "Cute But Kinda Weird." Yeah, they were right.

Happy New Year!!!

I had a good time over at Rim's sister's house. Here's a pic of the crew. Note: giving the peace sign in pictures is not a good way to make friends.
