Friday Flashback – February 22nd

Friday Flashback 2/22

2006 – Coultergeist Visits WMU
2008 – The USS Lake Erie knocked a “downed satellite” out of orbit using the AEGIS weapon system to do it, perhaps. Nobody knows exactly what happened, but sometimes I like to think about how it might have played out. Also in 2008 I was playing around with a swiss ball trying to get in shape. It didn’t take, at least not at that point.
2009 – One-word LiveJournal quizzes kept me occupied and I was busy contending with a cold, feeling awful and sick. I was also in the middle of reading Green Lantern comic books from the 80’s with all their adorable schlock.
2010 – Toyota was dealing with their runaway vehicles, while I was struggling with an injured back. Christmas trees that resist removal are such a pain. TweetDeck was a charmer but ultimately a piece of shiny junk.
2011 – I wrote about the importance of a Carbon Monoxide detector as the region was dealing with a nasty winter storm and a lot of power outages. Western had opened up some of it’s resources to the community to help mitigate what the outage meant for a lot of people in the community. We also learned that sections of permafrost were melting. Saying that this was one of the first indications of climate change would be laughably wrong. We’ve all known for a really long time that we’ve damaged the climate, this was just some lighthearted wistful comedy that helped round it all off.
2013 – I finished moving my Twitter activity over to Day One. I also decided to buy into the Sentricom system to protect my house from Termites. Perhaps it was a waste of money, but generally isn’t it better to be safer than sorrier?

A little trip down memory lane. I’m going to try to do these on Fridays from now on. Since I have so much of my past recorded in Day One, this should be easy. The only difficulty will be trying to summarize some of those days when I was tweeting a lot.
