You know what I love ZDNet’s TalkBack feature? It doesn’t matter what the article, the rhetoric is the same. Every single article seems to break down into the same argument. I just couldn’t resist this one though: News: Xbox goes online… with Linux

I Have Tickets!!
I have two tickets to see The Daily Show‘s first DC show in October!! How cool is that?
Another Commercial Song
That song from the Levi’s commercial where the guy dives back in the harbor after his English/French dictionary is called Playground Love by Air. It’s available on the Virgin Suicides soundtrack. Oh, and what does the girl say to him in French after he gets out of the water? “What did you forget?” Am I […]
Batman Could Do That?
Today’s diesel sweeties is amazing. It reminds me of all those stupid discussions my brother and I had as kids about who could beat up who and under what conditions.
Busted!!
We got caught! I don’t believe it. Jen and I were taking the trash out last night (it was after 10pm) and cleaning up Max’s sidewalk chalk mess. She kissed me, I kissed her and before you know it, here comes a lady from down the street with her little barrel dog. Jen yelled “Ooops!”, […]
Oh My, He’s Gone Native!
I still have my vacation beard. My face is now covered in shrubbery. It’s been almost two weeks since I shaved, and the beard is getting pretty full. Why do I still have in on my third day back to work? It’s embarrassing to say, but I’m scared. Cutting it off means standing in front […]
Look Ma, No Tears!
Do you know why I love reading Michael Brown’s blog? It’s stories like these. His son (well, his oldest son) is a couple years older than Max, and Michael’s writing gives me a nice “in the near future” glimpse at what I’m in for. He’s way up there on my daily reading list (even though […]
It’s Not All Bad
I posted yesterday about VirtualPC and how slow it was. It’s still slow, but not a complete loss. I was playing around yesterday, trying to get RedHat installed on a new virtual drive. It was taking FOREVER, so I put the machine to sleep in the middle of the install. I came in this morning, […]
What a Great Idea (in Theory)
I’ve always loved the idea of VirtualPC. But, in practice, it doesn’t quite live up to the hype. I got work to pony up for VirtualPC 5 w/ Windows 98 (which was waiting for me when I got back). It’s all installed on my lovely Powerbook. The problem is it’s dog slow. This was my […]
Back to the Grind
I’m back to the grind. I’ve waded through the pile of e-mail waiting for my return. I’ve fixed a dozen problems waiting for me in that pile, and started work on a dozen more. It’s nice to feel needed, but it was even better to take a break. I feel recharged and ready to get […]
