Dissent Protects Democracy Now there’s a protest sign I can get behind. The bomb with “Your Name Here” on it looks great, but doesn’t say what I want to say. The only things I can think of to sum up my feelings that would fit on a protest sign are (and feel free to use […]
I decided that today was a good day to make Max a happy music CD of stuff he should like (should in that it would be wise for him to like it, not that I think he’ll like). It may end up being a multi-volume set. Today, volume one: If I Had A Boat – […]
The switch to OS X is going well. I finally downloaded and installed OpenOffice. Other than it taking a year to start up, and requiring X, it’s doing fine so far. I just opened up a gigantic Word doc and it handled it fine. It reads the fonts OK (although without anti-aliasing), and only slightly […]
House cafeterias change names for ‘french fries’ and ‘french toast’ And to think, we pay these guys’ salaries. Oh yeah, we voted them into office too. Does this mean they’re going to make the interns wear “Freedom” Maid outfits tonight? And you know what, let’s turn Germany into “Justice” and go get us a slice […]
It’s confession time. I love Swatches. I’m not sure why I do, but I do. I own six or seven of them. Most of them have dead batteries and a couple have badly mangled bands. I found my first swatch the other day in a drawer. Other than a dead battery and some scratches, it […]

I’d gladly write code for almost anything over writing the documentation for that code.

Thank goodness for TiVo. There’s now so much good stuff late on Friday night that I can’t believe trying to keep up without having TiVo handle it all for me. Let’s go over the list: Ali G: It’s hard to say which show is funnier, but Ali G is one of the two funniest half […]
They don’t kid around. Not only do Dawson and Annie both have blogs, but now step-daughter/daughter Laura has one too. What next guys, the cat? Pretty soon, they’ll be blogrolling, sitemeterin’, RSS Feedin’ pros. I feel partly responsible for inflicting the addiction on them. Really, I do. This all started with a simple “Hey, how […]
So my pal Dawson started a blog. I told you that already. But, go back. Where there was once nothing, there is now content. Check out his Tips for Husbands. Words to live by, jackholes, words to live by. Daws’ Movable Type installation is now un-messed up and you should see some more neat-o stuff […]
Gotta remember this one: Cooking With Expletives ::: GD Hummus
