I recently posted about a situation where my old canon digital camera had broken and Canon tech support had offered to fix it for free even though I was way out of the warranty period. Well, they finally shipped my camera back! Only, it was a different camera! It contained a note that read something along the lines of "We ran out of parts to fix your camera, so here is a new one for you."The

I was totally wrong on my KU football prediction. I had predicted they would have at least 1 loss going into the MU game. For those keeping count, the actual number of KU losses is 0.The hottest regular season game in the historicalness of sporting is coming this Saturday.Go Jayhawks.Also, my brother was awarded a medal for something. Not sure what. I think it had something to do with jets and

Last saturday was great. I visited the farmer's market (3rd time since moving downtown), went to the Steamboat Arabia museum, and went to the WWI musuem at the liberty memorial. The weather was perfect (albeit a bit windy up on the liberty memorial in the afternoon). I highly recommend both of those museums, but I think I would probably recommend you see them on different days, as it was a bit

I'm tired of having to drive places to watch the Chiefs games, so I broke down and ordered cable. Not the premium cable packages. Just the $13/mo channels 1 through 19 basic cable package. I figured the $13 month is well worth what I will save in gas driving around to watch TV.Last night I ordered Thai food at a nice restaurant. I only ate 1/3rd of it last night. I ate another 1/3rd of it today

Yes. It is an exciting time for KU football fans. They are undefeated. A sweet seven and zero. KU is ranked #12 in the AP, with Missouri close behind at #13. Better yet, the USA Today Coaches poll has the Jayhawks at #10. In the BCS, Kansas is #9!I've been a KU fan since I was a kid, going to many games in the June Henley days of the 90's. They had one good season back then. I think they started

Look. I know it doesn't taste like real crab. But I like the stuff. I think once you realize what it really is -- flavorless fish that has been seasoned -- then you can eat it for what it is rather than hoping it tastes like crab and being disappointed.I eat the sticks/legs by themselves sometimes. Other times with a seafood/cocktail sauce. I know that eating these things is not for everyone, so

Things are starting to come together with my place, but it seems like every time I get the place cleaned, more stuff arrives to make a bigger mess with more boxes everywhere. I'm also in the process of moving my office, so the whole packing, moving, unpacking, organizing and cleaning process is getting pretty tiresome. I'm looking forward to being done with it next week.

I wasn't planning on seeing the Simpsons movie, since the show has gone downhill and grown tiresome over the past 4 years, but after seeing the rotten tomatoes and metacritic scores, I think I'm interested again.I might not care about new episodes of the show anymore, but I feel sort of obligated to see the movie after being such a fan for so many years.The Simpsons has grown a reputation for "

I've decided I really like movies from the late 50's and 60's. Especially the romantic comedies.I like the way they dress and the way they talk. I watched "Barefoot in the Park" for the first time on TCM last night, and it was great!I plan to watch a lot more of these if I get a chance. Anyone have any recommendations?

I'm not much of a library guy. I'm not sure why I never go to libraries. I just don't. Maybe it is because I don't like driving to them? I don't even know where the closest one is to me.There is a chance I may be living within walking distance to one soon, so I'm trying to imagine that, to see if it would change anything about how I live.Would I visit the library more if it was across the street?

I saw a movie at the Tivoli for the first time last night. It was an independent film from Ireland called "Once" that stars the leader singer of the band The Frames and features music written by him and some other girl. Essentially it is a musical about a guy and a girl.I though it was good. In fact it is really growing on me. I'll even say it was really good.If you like indie films or indie

One thing that I really enjoy about officing where is I do is the people. They are great. One small example of this is the lunchroom conversations we have, which typically revolve around movies -- specifically bad movies.One movie that came up this week is called The Wicker Man, which was described as being the most unintentionally funny movie of the year. It's supposed to be a horror movie, but

Just got back from another Washington DC and Annapolis business trip yesterday. Annapolis is the Maryland capital which is just 30 minutes away from DC. I spent 3.5 days in DC and only had 3 meetings, but unfortunately somehow I didn't find much time to do any tourist stuff, because of where my hotel was located.I learned a couple of things by having my hotel be closer to the airport than to

This past weekend I decided to clean my bathtub. Why? That's a stupid question. Because it was disgusting.Like most bachelors, I only clean my tub every now and then. I cleaned it just a few months ago, but for whatever reason, this time everything decided to grow faster.It was getting pretty bad. I was able to clean the tub and the tiles using Bam!, Kaboom!, and Zapsplosion! I made that last one

I'm kind of excited about the idea.

I've spent the last 3 weekends looking at new homes thanks to the annual Kansas City Spring Homes tour and some cool friends who were willing to show me some stuff downtown. I've come away with a couple of thoughts.New homes in the suburbs are all the same. Sure, they have different layouts, but they all feel the same: boring. Older homes in established areas have much better atmosphere and more

Nope. Not Kansas City. Good guess though, Tommy.The answer is Dubai City. Apparently they are freaky rich and have been going nuts with development. I remember seeing photos of their really cool hotel a couple years ago, but I'm still blown away by how much development they are doing, and how little I've heard about it.Check out this on a NASA website showing the satellite view of development.

Last month on BBC Radio, a voting contest was held to name the greatest British band of all time. The winner, by a mere 2% margin, was Queen -- beating out the Beatles and The Rolling Stones. The selection of Queen might surprise a few people, especially since it was not only over the aforementioned groups, but also Led Zeppelin. So allow me to explain.Queen was one of the few bands to display

I watched the movie Jesus Camp a couple of weeks ago. I found that, despite it's name, it has very little to do with Jesus. The movie focuses on the fact that many churches are politically focused and even go as far turning children's camps into “Here is what you should think about X political hot topic.” The featured woman in the documentary argued that because children are our future, it is

I really don't understand why April is being such a jerk.Hopefully things will turn around soon. I'm looking for things to turn around in the middle of the month. Not just for the weather, but hopefully for other life things as well.For instance, I hate taxes, but I love Chipotle. So after I'm finally done paying the government gobs of money, I'm going to head over to Chipotle for a free burrito.

I saw today that 30 Rock got renewed for second season, and I couldn't be happier. But on a sad note, the article also said that the ratings were low. So I feel it is my duty to do a "30 Rock" search on youtube and post clips here with the hope that possibly 1 new person will watch the show.

It's hard to predict the future of things. The one thing you can do with technology is just assume that things will keep getting better. And "better" in the technology world usually just means smaller and faster, because those limitations of modern technology. It's easy to guess that those will just improve with research and time. However, If you're talking about "better" in any other context,

My 3 month old niece drove all the way from Wyoming to come and visit me this week and I was able to see her 4 out of the 5 days she was here. I even took off work all day on Thursday to spend the day with her. We spent most of it watching basketball.She was really disappointed with the basketball games that day. The Duke game was the only upset. In fact, at one point she made me turn her away

For those of you who didn't happen to open up last Sunday's Kansas City Star, there was a 3-page expose on Rev. Jerry Johnston of First Family Church which claimed, among other things, thathe has raised millions of dollars for certain projects only to change the project to something else after all the donations had been collectedhe told the congregation that land was donated to the church for a

When I was a teenager, I knew a couple of guys in their mid 20's that landed some decent jobs and bought their own houses. I thought these guys must have "had it together" so to speak to be "so far ahead" of other people. I expected that I'd be doing something like that too when I was in my mid 20's. In fact, throughout most of my life, other people have given me the impression that owning a

Africa? No, thanks. I've seen enough news reports and documentaries and read enough stories about Africa to be thoroughly afraid of that continent. I really don't want anything to do with what goes on there. But if there is anything at all that I love about Africa, it is summarized by this.And by that, I just mean the photos. I'm perfectly happy just staring at these photos for hours. No need to

On news that the (Product) RED campaign to help fight AIDS in Africa is generating a very poor return, I'd just like to take a minute to rant about how stupid the entire thing is. Feel free to ignore this if you don't like to hear rants.I do like that they are raising awareness about this horrible epidemic, but I have to question why "raising awareness" seems to be more of a goal to them than

Are you ever listening to your music library and find yourself listening to a song you didn't pick out, where you say "Hey, this song is really good!" and then you realize "Hey, wait a minute. This is MY music. Why didn't I know I had this?"This past week I've been in the office late at night a lot listening to random stuff.

In a previous post, I mentioned that saving money is a good thing, mainly because if you do it right, you actually EARN money from it. I mentioned savings accounts in that post, but I didn't give any examples, so I thought I'd go ahead and list a couple of recommendations for people.The savings accounts that most people are used to are the ones that your local bank signs you up for as a 2nd

If you've been around me much at all, you've probably heard me talk about my kids on more than one occassion. Most of the time it is a rant in reference to the fact that I'm forced to pay this thing called "child support" even though I never visit them (how does that make sense?!?!). Anyway, they are pretty cool, so I thought I'd share this photo.If you are like me, you are probably wondering why

I recently saw a post on Rustin's blog about humility, and it reminded me that humility is something I've always struggled with. In fact, I remembered attempting to write something in my blog about it a while ago but never publishing it. My thoughts were so jumbled then that I couldn't find a good starting point. Today I went back to check my notes and saw that almost exactly 1 year ago I had

Have you ever been in a conversation with someone and they say something like “don't take this as just theoretical” or “this isn't just academic” as a precursor to something they are about to say? Some people have done this to me recently, and I've also read it at the beginning of chapters of certain books. “I implore you to not view what I am about to say as merely academic...” I find it very

I'm often very frustrated by marketing -- specifically advertising. I'm not just talking about the nausea created by hearing John Mellencamp sing “This is our country” in every commercial break of every football game for an entire NFL season. No, I'm referring more to the psychological tricks that are played on our society. There is no better example of this than commercials for diamonds. The one

I realized the other day just how bizarrely mixed my musical tastes are. I often jump from pop to hip hop to indie rock to classical to alternative rock and back again. This was even further apparent to me today. I went from listening to Stars in the morning, to Rock Kills Kid in the afternoon, and of course, System of a Down in the evening.

As I sit at my desk, avoiding work by writing on my blog, I find myself contemplating what I could possibly write about that anyone would want to read. I do this often, and it is at these moments that I wish I had more schooling in the art of literary writings of things, or perhaps some sort of sentence machine.I, like many before me, found school to be worthless and boring, and therefore failed

Lindsay Lohan. With all those little outfits. Jumpin' around there on stage. Half naked.. with.. with your little outfits. You know? You're up there jumpin around... and I'm just sittin' here with my beer.So, you know, what am I supposed to do?What uh.. what do you want? Are we going to go out? ... Is that why yer jumpin around there, throwin' those things all up in, over there in my face? Huh?

You know what I'm tired of? I'm tired of the 'thinkers have trouble feeling' and 'feelers have trouble thinking' stereotypes.While it is true that feelers will often make decisions without thinking and that thinkers sometimes leave their heart out of the equation, these common ideas that "thinkers don't know their heart" or "feelers are stupid" are absurd.I might overthink everything I've ever

Me too.That is why now that we have all of our spiritual questions definitively answered, I'm demanding that this blog become dramatically less serious right away.Here is how we will do it: Aside from the knowledge that,what is the one thing in this world that we all need the most?I'm 60% positive that it isn't(although at only $13.95 a can, I'm purchasing some anyway)or(only the best).And

“The world in which we live is a combat zone, a violent clash of kingdoms, a bitter struggle unto the death. I'm sorry if I'm the one to break this news to you: you were born into a world at war, and you will live all your days in the midst of a great battle, involving all the forces of heaven and hell and played out here on earth.” - John Eldredge, Waking the DeadSince I started reading this

I absolutely love Public Service Announcements. For instance, you can learn a lot about the future by watching this rock'n video.What does YOUR future look like? If you see yourself having a good time skating around in the park without being harrassed by monsters, think again. Thanks to Zack, we at least know how to defend ourselves.Ask yourself1. What do I like to to do?2. What jobs are suited

Yesterday was my 25th birthday. Most people that know me know that I hate celebrating birthdays. I view them as life's easiest achievements; completely undeserving of celebration. But I've realized that whether I feel like I deserve any kind of celebration or not, I still very much do appreciate the sentiment and effort put out by others. Celebrations and special dates aren't important to me at

I'm sure you're all well aware that tomorrow is International No Pants Day, but you might not be aware that it is also Cinco de Mayo. I believe it is important that we not let Cinco de Mayo overshadow No Pants Day. Celebrate them both together in unity! I'm posting this mostly to raise awareness. It is the one day of the year that guys like me can be truly happy.Also, don't forget that today is

Aren't they hilarious?On a side note, I've been hearing a lot of talk about people wanting to go see American Dreamz. I started thinking that maybe my initial impressions could be wrong, until I saw Dennis Quaid talk about it on the daily show. I just wanted to say that no matter what your political views are, this movie looks like the unfunniest satire ever. Please let me know if you see it and

The answer is no. But he also is not serious about not moving. We're probably going to get serious about one of the two at some point. Maybe soon. So please do give suggestions. He was serious about

I'm thinking about moving when my apartment lease is up. I do have a few requirements for the new location;1. There needs to be lots of beautiful, single females.2. The weather needs to be nice all year round. Hot is fine as long as it isn't humid.3. The cuisine needs to be interesting. If there isn't a plethora of restaurants, I'd at least like for there to be some decent food markets

Sorry about the lack of updates, everyone. I've been seriously busy lately and Igford has been in hiding ever since he received a large amount of hatemail from the PBHD Sandwich fiasco. Apparently people get upset when they get sick. Who knew?Rest assured, there will be updates soon.

Here at Igford's Blog headquarters, we receive all kinds of fan mail from our most loyal readers... and by "all kinds," I mean that we don't receive any. That's not going to stop me from responding to fan mail, though.

There aren't a lot of Christians that I know that agree with my stance on the separation of politics and religion.This article does a decent job of explaining why I feel the way I do.It's not that I don't want Christians in power. I really do. I just don't like the way Christianity gets represented by some of these people.

I just read a really cool article on Fast Company about a GE plant that manufactures jet engines. If you are interested at all in management or poductive work environments then whole article is a good read, but here are some snippets for other people. Even if you aren't interested in this stuff, it is amazing to see what trust can accomplish.GE/Durham has more than 170 employees but just one boss

I'm generally not a scattered person. I like focus. I like simplicity. It makes me smile. Having said that, I think it is fair to say that I'm out of my comfort zone right now. I'm trying to wear too many hats. I'm trying to be good at too many things. Complicated things. The types of things most people steer clear of for good reason. So why am I trying to tackle several of these things at

I'm making some major changes to this blog. I'm trying to figure out if I want to keep it going or not. And what types of things I want to post about.The downside of keeping it going is that I hate blogs. The upside of keeping it is that I want YOU to know about all my thoughts, all the time. So this is a good means of doing that.I'll keep you updated, whoever you are.

Another show I've started watching lately is Beauty and The Geek on the WB.A lot of people mislabel this show as a dating show meant to mock and embarrass people. While it does do it's fair share of that, it really is an interesting show that addresses different ends of the social spectrum. It is NOT a dating show.What happens is everybody gets paired up into teams of 2, consisting of one beauty

Why not?Has anyone seen this show on TLC? I'm hooked on it. Basically, each episode somebody tries to buy an old worn-down house for cheap, renovate it quickly, and then sell it for a profit. The show always uses first timers. It makes it interesting because you can see all the mistakes they make. Some of the poor judgement these people use is mind boggling.The recipe for each episode has been

So I was hanging out at the movie theater, doing my usual thing, when I wandered into Munich and saw this incredible movie trailer. I almost can't describe it, but I'll try.It begins by proudly stating that it is from the director of About a Boy and In Good Company. I liked those movies, so I thought maybe this could be good. Then I saw Dennis Quaid and I thought "this must be In Good Company 2,"

What will it take for people to stop considering Pat Robertson to be an important person? Seriously, I'll do anything.I don't think there is a single person out there that is used as an example more often to point out Christian hypocrisy, intolerance, and pure idiocy. He makes every Christian look bad on a regular basis. Want to make an argument against Christians or conservatives? All you have

If anyone needs a refresher course on why to stay away from drugs, here it is. Lower Paxton Twp. police said that when they arrived to investigate the disturbance, they found Lofton standing stark naked in the snow.When asked where he lived and why he was naked, Lofton is alleged to have said that he was "Jesus Christ" and that the officer must be "God," court papers say.

If you haven't read this article yet, I suggest you do.Here is a snippet:Nestler's application for a restraining order was accompanied by a six-page typed letter in which she said Letterman used code words, gestures and "eye expressions" to convey his desires for her.

Depending on your perspective, this might look fancy or gross, but neither are true! I just threw together a bunch of stuff that I had sitting in my pantry and fridge.It is ramen noodles -- cooked then drained -- with a leftover chicken breast chopped up with some green onions. The side dish is sauteed vegetables (yellow squash, zucchini, and onions). MMmmm.The best part? It was super cheap,

Do you ever drop items and then give up looking for them after a few minutes? Where the crap did my nut go? Once that 5 minute mark hits somehow I'm more willing to accept that either the item never existed in the first place, or it mysteriously vanished and will never be seen again. Then I stop worrying about it.Is this guy a hopeless romantic or a creepy stalker?
