Here I go again. I used to be a Republican. I used to listen to Rush Limbaugh. I read his first two books. I thought Bill Clinton was a bad dude (and I still he is in some ways). This was all in high school and for a couple years afterwards, maybe until 1995 or […]
“There’s an old saying in Tennessee – I know it’s in Texas – probably in Tennessee – that says, fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again.” Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 17, 2002 Wow. How did this guy get elected? Every day I watch a news conference […]
301.0 – Yup, that’s a pound and a half yesterday. At this rate, I’ll be at 299 tomorrow or Saturday!!! And, in case you’re already tired of this weight loss saga, get used to it. You’re gonna hear about it pretty much every day until I’m down to 220 (gunning for 200, but 220 would […]
are now useless!! I found FlareSOUND yesterday in iTunes and am in love. They stole my whole music library and put it up on their jazzybeats channel. They threw in stuff I’ve never heard before and then proceeded to beat me silly with it. Great downtempo chillout coding music for the musically adventurous. And yes, […]
I’m feeling better today. No more whining today. I’m playing with using Tcl around Movable Type and it’s a lot of fun. I wrote a little template that spits all the categories and entries into a tcl array, where things can then be sorted, goofed with, etc. Since everything is in MySQL, I could just […]
Craptastic says it all. Never take hypertension medicine without eating. Never take a diuretic without eating. I felt like crap all day: swimmy head, jitters, stomach ache; and I just kept going. I got things done and didn’t bitch about it. I even went bowling. I bowled like crap, but I bowled. My head still […]
If you’re thinking about going to Maggiano’s, don’t, unless you like being crammed into a postage stamp-sized table two feet away from people crammed around other postage stamp-sized tables. You’re more likely to hear the four tables around you than the person sitting right next to you. The food was good, but the service was […]
Steve Case to resign from AOL Time Warner
The switch went well today. I got a lot done and by the end of the day, I was using Apple+Left instead of Home to get to the beginning of a line and having a wonderful time. I see now I do need to go get BBEdit 7. BBEdit Lite is good, but it’s not […]
An Interview With a Grandmother is an interesting look at Linux for the Home User. I don’t see it as a win for Linux, per se, because HomeBase is such a specialized product that wouldn’t work for us geeks anymore than Solaris would work for my grandmother. I think it’s more a rousing recommendation of […]
