AT&T Phone

I’m mostly putting these notes here in case I need them again, but maybe they’ll help someone else out. About 8 years ago I bought an AT&T corded/cordless phone system for my home office and house. It is was a … Continue reading →

Knowlesville Posted on August 19, 2018 by MattApril 5, 2019

2001 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab

Knowlesville Posted on March 24, 2018 by MattMarch 24, 2018

Today was a momentous occasion at the Knowles house. While we have done lots of work on our 1888 Victorian in the 17 years that we’ve lived here, I can finally say one room, our bedroom, is completed. We have … Continue reading →

Goodbye Facebook, Hello Toilet

Knowlesville Posted on March 20, 2018 by MattMarch 20, 2018

Well I’ve had it. With the latest revelations about Facebook’s involvement with Trump’s campaign, I find I can no longer support their business, and I certainly can’t trust them with my personal information. So I’m going to delete my Facebook … Continue reading →
