Storm clouds over the Rocky Mountains (Boulder, CO)

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

As I was driving home last night I got to see this spectacular scene of some storm clouds coming in over the Rocky Mountains, getting ready to pound the Boulder and Louisville, Colorado area with some fresh snow:

Snow storm clouds - Boulder, Colorado

That photo doesn’t really do justice to those snowstorm clouds … just seeing them, you knew we were in for another big snow storm here in the Boulder and Louisville, Colorado area, the results of which you can see in my Boulder, Colorado blizzard/whiteout post.

My Twitter account

It doesn’t look like I’ve posted it here before, so here’s a link to my “Alvin Alexander” Twitter account. I tend to use that account for many short tweets, and re-tweets from a couple of other people I follow, so I thought I’d include it here.

Geek gift ideas for the 2009 holiday season

Thursday, November 26th, 2009

I’ve had fun shopping for geek gift ideas on and off for the last two days, and so far I’ve come up with two lists of gift ideas.

My first list is ‘Geek gift ideas’ for under $10, and lists all the ‘geek gift’ items I could find for under $10. And if I do say so myself, that is a tough chore these days.

My second list is ‘Geek gift ideas’ for under $20. Going up to $20 gave me a little more flexibility, but I have to say, I’m pretty happy with both shopping lists.

This has been a fun experience, shopping for holiday ‘geek gift ideas’, and a nice break from the norm.
