Travis Smith: my resume, bio and photos back to the main blog page

Travis Likes To…

OK, so the latest meme going around is go to Google and type in quotation marks your name and then “likes to” (e.g. “Tom likes to"). Type in the first ten things that come up and repost in your own note.  Here’s my list.

Flickr’s Odd Browser Color Inconsistency

I’m looking at my photos on Flickr, and they’re not showing up colored properly.

And a Greek restaurant outing.

These Are Photos of Every Lilac Festival I Have Been To

Susie and I went back to Calgary a few weeks ago, and while we were there, we accomplished two significant things.

One, we painted my Mom’s front door, which was a belated Christmas present, and two, we attended Calgary’s annual lilac festival.

Finally, a Win

It’s been seven long weeks, but my Ultimate team finally won a game.  We still need a lot of work, but it’s a great day, a very great day.  Also the longest day of the year, if you didn’t notice.

Thanks for the Racquet

James lent me a racquet.  I have not yet used it.  It is now one of the several leisure-time activity devices that taunt me and stress me out.  Of all the things I am behind on, the thing I’m the furthest behind on, is my leisure.

Tennis Racquet

Is anyone selling a tennis racquet that’s no longer needed?  Is that even how you spell racket?

Is it one size fits all?  I think I need a big one.  I’m a large, perhaps extra large in racquet size.

Overheard

“BBFF (Best Bacon Friends Forever)”

...who said it?

“I find myself thinking of a checklist Wozniak wrote a few years ago describing how to become a genius. His advice was straightforward yet strangely terrible: You must clarify your goals, gain knowledge through spaced repetition, preserve health, work steadily, minimize stress, refuse interruption, and never resist sleep when tired. This should lead to radically improved intelligence and creativity. The only cost: turning your back on every convention of social life.”

...who said it?

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.”

...who said it?

“Ever have something in your teeth that you cannot stop tonguing?”

...who said it?

“ . . . the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan’s advantage.”

...who said it?
