I’m going to start with 9-11 first because by any measure it’s a world-changing, life-altering event. When 9-11 happened, I was worried because I knew many people in and around the area. I was relived to discover I didn’t actually know anyone who was killed. Or so I thought. A few weeks later (maybe a […]
First, if you’re going to use OSX Snow Leopard here’s a compatibility chart you’ll find useful. Make sure your critical applications are updated and make sure you know what won’t work. Be especially careful with disk utilities that may cause more harm than good when used with an operating system they aren’t tested with. Also, […]
If you’re not watching Skins on BBC America (Thursdays 9pm) you’re missing one of the best shows BBC has turned out. My original review is in this blog post. This is just really good. I was worried because for series three (now in progress) they replaced the entire cast and went with new kids. The […]
I meant to post this earlier. It was sent to me by Dave. I’ve made several posts criticizing Obama’s poorly thought out monstrosity of health-care “reform” as he calls it. This is a rebuttal. I’m presenting it to be fair, however I maintain my original position that while we need reform, this isn’t it. I […]
I’d like to ridicule the Florida Panthers first. They have a Facebook account and their crack team of people typed “If your one of the winners – email us with your contact details and ….” Your? Indeed. I’m sure they meant you’re (you are) but apparently, they don’t hire educated interns to run things. They […]
I was an Obama supporter, and mostly I still am. In my earlier post, I meant to share this article because it’s how I feel as a business owner. I want to thank Paul who sent it over. Of course, I also realize to hire good people you have to offer competitive benefits, so this […]
Okay, let’s start with the news everyone’s been waiting for. Last night was an especially bad night after a not-so-bad day, so I was pretty glad I was going to the cardiologist today. I saw the cardiologist today after a way too long wait in the lobby. He pretty much confirmed all findings so far: […]
I don’t want to mention names, but I want to make sure those of you who I’ve leaned on for support these past few months know how much I appreciate it. It’s not that any one thing is overwhelming but when a whole list of things is added together; that’s how it became the mess […]
Let’s start with something that amuses me: A US federal court judge has banned Microsoft from selling Word over patent infringement claims and has added a $290 million dollar fine for willful infringement. Microsoft, of course, plans to appeal. This will be like the case where Apple sued them for stealing the trash-can on the […]
So I call my doctor and he speaks to me. He is concerned. I have an appointment to see a cardiologist. The appointment is 10 days away and I’m trying to get it moved closer. My stress level is beyond belief. I am certain I am causing myself damage with this much stress. I am […]
