Snap is this little thingy where, as you mouse over a link, you get a preview of the link’s website. I’m going to try and see if I like it. Guy Kawasaki uses it on his blog, so I’m sure it’s reputable. Let me know what you think. You can turn it off if it […]
Of course not. However, that’s the title of this great article. Though amusing, it’s also thought-provokingly profound. After all, you’ve got to love the truth in this comment: “The fact is that if climate change were caused by gay sex, or by the practice of eating kittens, millions of protesters would be massing in the […]
Some clever chap has a brilliant idea which I am very keen on. This person states “I hereby declare April 13, 2007, is National Buy Dick Cheney a Cheeseburger Day. Millions of Americans will buy cheeseburgers, consume them, and then mail their receipts to Vice President Dick Cheney, to encourage him to chow down or […]
This excerpted from Josh’s blog-thingy with his permission. I was playing with some numbers the other day wanting to see what kind of data it would take to texture a model of the entire planet in photographs of the Earth’s surface with your average 7-mega-pixel camera. The numbers may be screwy, but here’s what I […]
My God! If I get one more e-mail asking me about Harry Potter’s dick I will just scream. Yeah, I made a post about it, but it was not a sexual post. It was a “what is the kid thinking” post and more bemused than anything. I posted a publicity still (tasteful but boring) in […]

Yeah, the title is a tip-o-the-hat to “Spanner in the Works” but it’s also just what happened. I’ve been crabby all day because I barely slept a wink last night after a short night the previous night. I’m sore, tired, and miserable. So what’s the story? Ah, yes, glad you asked. Last night, around 9ish, […]
I have had a series of posts about my ongoing CD ripping project started 1-1-07 and finished today 3-6-07 after 65 days of work. The first post is here, but you can see them all by using the labels (tags) feature. The final result is 10,629 songs for a continuous playing time of 29.8 days […]
A busy day for me, to be sure. I came home after receiving the hernia news, and had a message to please contact the vet’s office to schedule an appointment for more blood work on my cat Scooter. Of course, I immediately called and made an appointment to do so. (If you’d like to see […]
I have a hiatal hernia — those are the results of the endoscopy. Because it’s not too bad, they are not recommending surgery. They expect to continue to treat my acid reflux with Nexium. I am to follow up with the original doctor in about three weeks. The hiatal hernia is causing the acid reflux […]
