ColdFusion 8 Debugger Resources and Tips

ColdFusion Open Source Project? Visit Ohloh!

I was digging around DZone at lunch and stumbled upon Ohloh.
Ohloh is an open source network that connects people through the software they create and use.

4 Days and 1,000 Miles Later

Last weekend my riding buddy Tom and I headed to Virginia - it was time for our annual motorcycle trip! (photos here)

Guilty Pleasure - Feasting on Asphalt 2!

Almost a year ago I blogged about Feasting on Asphalt - a show on the Food Network of all things.
In it - Alton Brown traveled across the US on motorcycle (along with a film crew also on bikes) eating along the way. It was a great show - and tonight I was flipping around [...]
