Today, I took Grandma to Rascal House, because we like it there. Besides, it’s an Institution in these parts. The food is always good. The service is generally surly but efficient. The service was inexplicably horrible today. Grandma hates when I make a scene, or the manager would have heard about it. I had the […]
Hello: As you may have noticed the blog’s been a bit, um, well, unhappy lately. The archives were broken on most browsers. The formatting, text, and colours were shot. All sorts of unholy stuff. The blog is now fully functioning again and everything is (apparently) fixed. The blog blew up the other day and stopped […]
A few weeks ago, I took my car in for the 40,000 mile service. It also needed a brake job and to have the rotors turned. It wasn’t ready on the appointed day because “we have to take it for a test drive before we return the car to you.” That was the exact line. […]
I am saddened by the death of Johnny Carson earlier today. I grew up watching Johnny Carson. When I was younger, he was on past my bedtime, and I used to stay up and hook headphones to my TV so I could listen anyway. He was the ideal and perfect talk-show host. He was comforting, […]
I am in a bad mood right now. I don’t know why, I just am. I was fine earlier today but now I’m just generally irritated. I just thought I’d let the world know, or at least the 2 or 3 people who bother to read my blog. — E
Don’t you just hate when my subject line in unrelated to the contents of the post? Should I stop? I’ll take opinions on that. I’m back to Firefox. Happily, it now works with my bank’s site. They didn’t fix Firefox, so they must have fixed my bank’s site. That was why I went back to […]

ISBN 1-886411-83-2 This is such a kick-ass book, I would encourage all my MacHead friends to go and buy it. If you’re one of those “other” people who use that Windows trash, perhaps reading this book will help you understand why we MacHeads are so fanatical and loyal. Maybe we should call ourselves MacQuaeda? “The […]
Hello: Although it’s nearly eight months away, my plans are now solidified and details will be going out within two weeks. The invitations are at the printer as we speak. All my friends and family members should have already received an e-mail poll with the choices for locales. If you didn’t get your copy, please […]
Hello Loyal Reader[1]: First, and foremost, I’d like to wish everyone who reads this blog a very Happy New Year. I’m posting this a day late because I was too tired yesterday to deal with a blog entry. I am recovering from California’s horrible loss to Texas Tech. At least we did it in the […]
