Being Dead in Pittsburgh – Boing Boing: Talking about the many cemeteries in Pittsburgh reminded me of…

The John Turner Graveyard – Pittsburgh history | Examiner.com: I pass this cemetery every time I go down there and stay at Bob’s place.  This past spring the church painted the old wrought-iron fence a cheery red, which really did a lot to brighten it up.

Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal | Cooking with My Kid: Teaching My Kid and myself the art of cooking in 365 days: This looks way too yummy to not try it myself.  Maybe I’ll surprise Gill with it when she gets back next week.

Of course…

After using the Nokia PC Suite to download some pictures from my phone I was trying to show Gill how useful it would be for her to manage her phone.  I go through photos, music, message, and end up with contacts.
“And this is the best part.  It makes it so much easier to edit contacts and add details.  Here, let’s edit my name on your phone.”  And just as I click on edit, I get a bluescreen of death.  Haven’t seen one of those in months, but it’s still no less jarring.
