DIY Weather Display for Your Webpage

After searching around for a simple weather feed for my website, I temporarily gave up. All I was finding were lame weather cut and paste code with links and ads. The weather channel is great, but I didn't want the branding. All I really wanted was very basic information, which was the temperature and location ( For example: Augusta, 99F).

The Best Deal in Lake Arrowhead for Lodging

Staying at North Bay Resort is the next best thing to having a family cabin in the Lake Arrowhead mountain area. You basically get your own condo in a gated community that is right off the lake and close to the main shopping areas like Lake Arrowhead Village and Blue Jay Village.

Freitag, One of the Most Expensive Messenger Bags Around

I first starting seeing Freitag Messenger Bags in Tokyo, Japan. It was around 5 or 6 years ago when the fixed gear phenomenon really started to peak (both with the Japanese and the westerners living in Japan). It was either Tokyu Hands or Loft Department stores that had the Freitags in Tokyo, and they were pricey as you can imagine. The first time I saw one I knew nothing of the brand, but the bag was impressive both in design and feel.

Yesterday I went to Angels stadium to watch the Halos beat up on the Texas Rangers. I entered the main gate shortly after opening and headed down to the field to watch the teams warm up. The only players on the field were the respective pitchers for each team, Fernando Rodney was down there throwing with Santana and was looking better after his recent back problems, word is he is off the DL and will be activated soon. After the pitchers left the field I headed up to the main concourse to check out some of the Angels shops.

If you know your Taco Shops in San Diego then surely you know Roberto's Taco Shops (or the many imitators like Royberto's, Umberto's, and all of the other ...berto's off-shoot Taco Shops).

After being away from San Diego for a year, I ventured over to Kearny Mesa to hit what I thought would be Roberto's on Convoy St. This restaurant is right across the street from Der Weinershnitzel, and really is a landmark for UCSD students, car salesmen, and high schoolers from around San Diego.
