July 2015 update

I'm still here! Well, I'm in North Carolina. I have been wanting / longing to work on the site and update some posts as well as create new ones. Some of the problem stems from the fact that I don't have a decent laptop / computer out here to do that sort of work. The screen resolution required for my website is rather large, and the laptops that I have

All moved, at home in Grand Rapids

doogie

What a wild ride it's been! What happened over the month of August? I moved my entire life from Thornton Colorado to Grand Rapids Michigan. I am now here at work at The Geek Group, and have completed my first week at my new job. What can I say? It's been everything I've ever wanted out of a job, out of life. Not only to be working somewhere I love,

YouTube removed old subscriptions page, youtube.com/my_subscriptions

http://www.youtube.com/my_subscriptions?feature=mhee Was removed, are you crazy? I am very outraged that Google would do something so BOZO! Life doesn't revolve around Google+ , people who use YouTube don't want to be fused with another social media gig. If someone took the old YouTube software, and put it up at another domain name I bet you would lose out on your online video market share completely, because you've butchered it beyond

August Announcements!

You haven't been hearing from me because I have been busy as a MoFo. I have been packing up and making arrangements to move to Grand Rapids and take up my new position at The Geek Group as Director of Vehicular Sciences. I pick up the moving truck on the 15th of this month, and am leaving on the 19th of this month. I have been catching up on

Been busy, and out of town!

Hello and sorry that it had been a long time since I've been active online. I have been busy with life changing stuff, I am out in Michigan right now at The Geek Group volunteering sorting out some car stuff whilst trying out for a job. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here and I did end up getting the job, so I will be moving out here very soon.

More updates and YouTube Channel woes!

YouTube Google+ Headaches: Okay so I am sore all over the place, but for the first time in over a week I finally get a moment to sit down and check my e-mails and do a little bit of catch up. I don't know if anyone reads these things but at least I have a place to bitch heh! So I'm going to start with the most recent thing that

Late May post, many updates!

doogie

Well hello and welcome! I am sure there will be a video that follows up what I say here on the website, but I will be sure and include extra juicy stuff in here for those who like to read my posts :-) First off, the Talon tuning movie is ready to be edited, well part 1 of it anyways. I will be going into my office tomorrow for a

Was that… April?

doogie

I'm not completely sure, but I think it was here and gone. What was supposed to be another month of progress in my venture into self employment, quickly turned into rushing to get one thing done after another. I guess I'll take it from the top, the first week of April was bulk trash. A couple of times annually in Thornton people will set out large items curb side such

Happy New Year! / Janurary Update

doogie

Happy new year! With 2013 now here and the fact that we're all still alive, we can focus on things other than holiday stuff. Back to the grind. What's up with me? It has been sometime since I've blabbered on about some sort of update. I thought about making a video one but at the same time I'm not sure that people would enjoy my YouTube being cluttered up with

Well hello hello Not too much to report, started moving stuff out and scrapping that last of the junk that's laying around here so I don't need to take it with me anywhere. I have been working on potentially securing an office space downtown but with both bank accounts empty I really don't know how things are going to work out. Maybe a miracle, maybe I'll make it on my

I wonder how posting from a mobile phone works

Testing out the android app that interfaces with the wordpress cms. This is pretty interesting I have to admit, I have never been able to construct an entire website so fast before, and be that satisfied with the results. I'm glad that its become as universally possible as facebook to host and maintain my own website. I like keeping my own data on my server, its mine. Facebook and other

Critical Mass

So I found out that more rent is owed at the shop than I was expecting since my partner backed out. I am ready to sign the new lease, but need to get this paid first. Time to kick it into high gear! I am a bit of a slacker in getting the tour video of the mobile PCs finished, but have listed them on Craigslist. I have listed the

There hasn't been much for showable progress since I have been moving everything into the new place. It has been going well and my lease starts tomorrow 11/1. At least I got everything moved over already! Okay just the stuff that goes INSIDE the house has been moved. I took the entire 1st week of November off of work just to get settled in, and will spend the better part

Albert got new shoes! I got some Michelin Agilis Tires to go with my smallcar wheels and it turned out great! The ride is much better and the response to wind gusts has certainly changed. It even turns better! We went to Rocky Mountain National Park over the weekend and up Trailridge Road. Albert climbed over 11,200 feet and didn't lag behind for a single bit of it. You definitely

I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday! The Van is pretty much finished, the bumpers are on their way and after that all that is really left is wheels & tires, and big brakes. Of course there is the digital cluster and stuff but those are all smaller projects that aren't required for me to have safe and reliable transportation. So it's buttoned up again, permanently. In the midst of

Happy New Year! I didn't finish the Vanagon page last month, however I did make significant progress! It is actually a lot of work proofreading and making sure everything looks as it should, and it hasn't helped that I spent 2 weeks out of last month without my main computer as I had sent it in for servicing. Now that I am all squared away I can continue work on

3/4/2012 update: This post marks the opening of the original DoogieLabs site, which was based on the e107 CMS. All original blog entries and published pages have been recovered. The years of work and extra notes however, have not. Welcome to the DoogieLabs site, this site is under construction currently and will see some significant progress over the next couple of weeks (as time permits). Work is already underway
