2010-10-21 - got my first two patches accepted into Ruby On Rails: it's a small bug fix but it's nice to see that random small contributions in old maintenance branches are still being looked after.

2010-10-19 - I hear through the grapevine that Reva Systems is shutting down. That's very disappointing; I really thought that company had everything going for it: good idea, good timing, good funding, great people. I guess the whole RFID thing just wasn't as good an idea as the 2004 hype would have led you to believe.

2010-06-29 - It's been tough sledding in 2010 so far but things are definitely looking up! I started work at The MITRE Corporation yesterday working on open-source healthcare applications. Great tech and scary-smart folks, I like it already.

2009-12-14 - I upgraded the software that I use to run the site - please let me know if anything's amiss.

2009-12-08 - Cut loose from Sermo, looking for a new job.

2009-11-14 - The empty space in the garage didn't last long: it's been filled by an old BMW: FallDayNewBike. It's a very different bike than the Duc and it proves that you don't have to make a lot of noise to have a lot of fun!

2009-11-04 - Just sold the Interceptor. It was a sad sight seeing it drive away in the back of a pickup but the guy who bought it plans to give it some love over the winter for his daughter to ride next spring. Cool Dad!

2009-11-01 - I've decided to sell my first motorcycle: InterceptorForSale

2009-10-30 - found out that one of the patents for stuff I worked on at Reva was awarded: http://www.google.com/patents?vid=USPAT7567179

2009-09-30 - Last track day, with http://bostonmoto.com/. A good day, about 100 miles on the track, but a lot of crashes (not me!), especially in the morning. Cold track + cold tires = chaos.

2009-04-28 - First track day of the summer, with the Fishtail Riding School. Had a great time and improved on turns 3, 11, and 11a, but now I'll be sore for the next two days...

2009-04-06 - I had fun assembling a few blinky GameOfLife kits from the cool folks at http://adafruit.com/, and the bezel I made was featured on their blog today: http://www.adafruit.com/blog/2009/04/06/acrylic-bezel-for-game-of-life-kit/

2008-05-12 - Toby went to work for http://www.sermo.com/ ! It's in Kendall Square which is a nice change from the greater Lowell metropolitan area, and it's a dog-friendly office so Jet will be able to come in to work with me. Vic is still having a great time at Harvard.

2008-03-13 - Many new pix in the PhotoAlbum.

2008-03-08 - upgraded this wiki to the latest and greatest version. If you're reading this then it's evidently not working too badly.

2008-02-12 - Home sick, and so is Katharine.
I just renewed my FSF membership; If you use computers then you should seriously consider becoming a member. Joining is easy, just click on the button!

2008-02-04 - 19 and d'oh!
Oh well, thanks Pats for a fun, if disappointing season. Pitchers and catchers report in a couple of weeks...

2008-01-15 Long time, no update. Let's see...
Katharine's doing well, at her last appointment her antigen level was within the normal range! Tory's grades are much improved over last year, so she earned herself a case of her favorite "vitamin water". Vic is busy lightening the wallets of the members of the 5 Harvard classes that she's responsible for, and I'm still gainfully employed at Reva. Oh yeah, Jet's still got a serious attitude but we love him none the less.

2007-05-23 Keep Milton Academy's lower and middle schools! http://www.miltonk-12.org/

2007-02-12 It's a big day in the Caboteria as Vic heads back to work for the first time since we moved back to MA. She's working as a fundraiser for WGU so if you went there you'd better watch your wallet! The only bummer is that Jet will have to get used to spending the day alone
