Blank Blogs
Some of you may have noticed that this space was left blank unintentionally earlier. Any time we'd try to save something on our server, the file would become 0 bytes in size. My troubleshooting prowess leads me to believe that a log file inflated to the point where it sucked up too much space on [...]
TechTV Layoffs
I keep getting e-mails from concerned viewers / subscribers regarding the news. I don't know if I'm breaking any rules by posting this to my personal site, but I wanted to let everyone know that I still have a job at TechTV. The world would have been able to figure that out for itself after [...]
What's Up
Catching up on tasks. Day behind with Lockergnome. Jake in SF. Going to Chinatown in a few minutes. Going nuts. Having fun. Still looking for human editor for small editing projects. Wish could blog more. Must finish Munch on Xbox. Hate sentence fragments. Love you.
Yahooooooooooooo!
I'm thikning of taking up golf, but only if I can play alongside Cristie Kerr.
Help Wanted
Editor (a person who edits documents) wanted. Now.
It's That Simple
People have been asking what I think of my new machine. I love it! I've yet to boot into OS 9. Wired asks: Why Do New iMacs Surf So Slowly? I don't know for sure. Give X a little more time and I'm sure it'll get better. It's too simple to hate. It's too complex [...]
Would You?
Would you ever consider using a shell like this one? With a little bit of polish, this could actually be a very COOL desktop environment. Watch it all the way through – tres sweet.
Blank Intentionally
I debated singing this song at Gnomedex. I wanted to do it last year, but things kinda fell apart after 9/11. This week has been a busy week, for sure. It's a Lockergnome weekend, and I have quite a bit of work to catch up on beyond that. I've also pledged my support for an [...]
Clean Underwear
Red shirt being worn today for Robyn. If I knew what Christine liked, I'd wear something different for her, too. I hope she got the package we sent?
From Terence Geoghegan
“Esperanto isn't a bad idea, but it has yet to catch on in the mainstream.” Actually, this is not the case. Esperanto certainly did catch on in the mainstream. In China, there is a weekly newsmagazine in Esperanto with over a million readers. However, the real hotbeds of Esperanto culture were Germany and the Soviet [...]
Hard Disk in the Freezer
“A few months ago, I think you featured an item about putting your HD in the freezer if there were problems with it. Yesterday, I received a ‘Write Error’ on C – the HD LED was constantly lit. I could not control the PC, Ctrl+ALT+Del did not work, so I had to turn the power [...]
Message Boards
Looks like TechTV has erected a new set of Message Boards (and not a moment too soon). If you're looking for help, look no further. Or, keep looking – as long as you stop here first.
Clarification
What happens in two years? I don't know yet. I'm doing too much writing – I'd rather focus on my television / entertainment career. More to come. Or, less to come, as the case might be.
Look Up Here
From the SF Sidewalk Astronomers list: “The Space Shuttle ATLANTIS docked with the International Space Station (ISS) makes an almost straight overhead pass for the Bay Area tonight. The pair will first appear low in the NW sky at 21:09 (9:09pm PDT), reaching 70 degrees high in the NE at 21:12, just missing the bowl [...]
