I'll Stop Now
Hot off the presses! This one even has lyrics: Upgrades for Nothing.
Thanks, Desmond
So, Gretchen and I are driving home from Peet's and we hear Desmond Crisis (or someone who sounds an awful lot like Desmond) on CNET radio say: “Because I own the software.” Almost immediately, the theme from Rocky sprang to mind and I started making up lyrics on the spot. I got home and had [...]
The Best Attack
Oh, wow. Attack of the Clones was, in a word, AWESOME. I was extremely impressed with Episode II – from beginning to end. The trite dialogue everyone keeps complaining about? Sorry, but I was so wrapped up in the “feel” of being in the Star Wars universe again, I wasn't bothered by it. Even Threepio's [...]
I Don't Get It
Why are people installing the preview of Netscape 7.0?! What, do they think it'll be any better than older versions? It doesn't make any sense – considering that Mozilla is leaner, cleaner, and meaner. I know the open source project is still in beta, but would you rather knowingly install crapware on your system? I [...]
Presto Change-o
My fingers must have slipped last night. I didn't mean to post an animated bear background. I don't know what I was thinking. Perhaps it was the coffee?
Colorful Day
Sorry about the flying rainbow background. It'll be back again someday. I think I like this new one a little better. What do you think?
Are You Blind Yet?
Just experimenting…
Not So Nervous
And now, the ultimate collection of screen captures from when Cheyenne Visited Call for Help.
Outuit
Dear Chris, thanks for your great service. Now, for a little heads up to your community. I am pastor of a very poor parish on the Texas / Mexico border. The parish offer several social services, for which we have been dependent on grants. We chose Quickbooks for the accounting that grant writing requires. And [...]
Hey Occifer!
Uh… if you hadn't already made up your mind about coming to Gnomedex, make it up quickly. One, registration is higher at the door. Two, Chey and G are drunk off their asses right now. Wow. Y'all won't wanna miss this. Multiply it by 1,000 and you'll have one helluva memorable party. Wow. These two [...]
God's Honest Truth
Hey folks! I'm glad y'all enjoyed Cheyenne's appearance on CFH earlier today. Some people have been saying that TechTV has lost touch with its fan base. I'd disagree. When Adam Dreyfus first pitched the idea of bringing Chey onto the show, I was all for it. I know we'd be nowhere without viewers like her. [...]
Fun Fun Fun
Would you like to play a Game?
Texas Security
I saw your story about identity theft, and wanted to tell you about something that the state of Texas does/did that caused a friend of mine a real headache a couple of years ago. My friend moved here from another state and was still using his other state's for the first month or so. He [...]
What The Hell!?
What the hell did I do? Suddenly, Microsoft Excel is giving me numbers for both my columns and my rows. I have no idea how I toggled this setting. Ugh.
