Post 999

Action Tin Toy has the coolest freebies. The wallpaper and icons are retro-gorgeous. The icons alone are reason enough to switch to a Mac (ok, grasping at straws, but you really should think about it). I’ve got some new things I want to try here. I want to write longer entries, but still keep the […]

Found Music Part Quoi?

I spent this afternoon working on documents, experimenting with crazy CSS stuff and listening to music long forgotten in the bowels of my office downstairs. I went through the four hundred or so CD’s down there last night and picked out some old stuff to bring to work. So far this afternoon I’ve listened to: […]

A Small Tip

The Energizer Fatty

Today was crazy in a good way. First, I woke up at 8:30, got up, took a shower and headed to the gym. I made it all the way through my workout routine. I didn’t skip any exercises, just skipped a couple reps on the shoulder presses because I just couldn’t do it any more. […]

With A Little Help From My Friends

What a day. My muscles are crying still, especially my quads, biceps, lats and delts (see, I was going to be a medical illustrator and wanted to draw comic books when I was younger, so I took anatomy). I’m not completely immobile, which I thought I would be. I am walking a little funny – […]

This Is Kevin Whining

I’ve got a loaner laptop… it’s a PC… running Windows 98. I think I’m in hell. It’s about 18-months behind on updates and other tomfoolery. It’s crashed three times in an hour, once giving me the blue screen of death. It’s short on RAM. It’s ugly. They still don’t know when/if I’ll get a new […]

A Titanium Disaster

There was a death in the Lawver family last night as I brutally and accidentally killed my TiBook. Now, it’s not dead dead, but it might as well be. I was putting it away last night when I picked up my case only to realize that it wasn’t zipped up. Unfortunately, the sound the clued […]

Too Many Computers? Is That Possible???

People at work give me a hard time about the number of computers I have under my desk. Honestly, I think they’re just jealous. Here’s the rundown: Dell Precision P3-733 running Windows XP – the former home of most of my work computing. No longer, since I switched to… Apple TiBook – G4-550 – it’s […]

They’ve Gone All Communal

Anti-Bloggie Prize Patrol

Miss Mea-Mea won the best Amazon Wishlist category in this year’s Anti-Bloggies! Her prize (from yours truly) was something from her Amazon Wishlist less than \$25. Her choices (since I thought randomly choosing something was kinda mean) were Pulp’s This is Hardcore and Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic Ties The Knot. They’ve both been ordered and are […]
