I’m still thinking about the book I want to write. There are only a few things I know enough about to fill a book: AOLserver, Tcl, SQL, HTML and CSS being up on the list. I think a book about all of those things without a hook could be a huge jumbled mess and take […]
And for those who care – no more PreacherHair™!
TiVo Weekend Movie Review: Thanks to TiVo, I watched a couple weird movies this weekend. The first, Jesus’ Son stars Billy Crudup as a Heroin junkie and all-around useless fellow who finds his calling in a “home”. It’s odd, and I should have paid more attention.

So, Jen says I may write a book. If I can remains to be seen. She’ll watch Max and give me time to go hide in my office and write. I guess I’m really going to do this. Now, I have to get started. How does one start a book? Do I do an outline? […]

If you have a machine, I can probably bring it to its knees with nifty in memory caching and data manipulation. I can cripple your web farm with intense bombardment […]

I had no idea that a mention on the Legend’s site would result in so much traffic…
My gigantic cool project is in QA and almost done. My talented QA Engineer is now load testing it. I hate load testing. It’s the worst pain you can inflict on me is to make me sit around fretting while you clobber the living crap out of my baby until it gives. It’s even worse […]
I’ve noticed something that I think I should share. Now that the webcam is back, I realize just how badly I need a haircut. PreacherHair™ is in full effect. Please, sweetie, call Cynthia today and make an appointment or I’m gonna start thumpin’ Bibles again!
