I fought the sliding door and the door won
Ouchie, smashed my middle left finger in the door! Man that door slides smoothly. Cut the underside at the joint, and the nail deep enough to bleed. I nearly passed out – what a wuss I am. 🙂 But 2 glasses of water, some bandaids and 40 mins of rest later, I was at the… Continue reading I fought the sliding door and the door won
Mmm Reo you da best!
Reo’s Ribs has expanded! They took over the entire corner they were on, so serving from the roach coach is a thing of the past. They have a full two rooms of dining, however it is still down-home Mississippi cooking and atmosphere. For those who don’t live here, Reo’s is a mom and pop southern… Continue reading Mmm Reo you da best!

Blue Screen of Death in the Movie Theater: Microsoft to drive digital movie theaters A sad, sad day. Excuse me, my movie crashed, I want a refund?

What amount backup?
So it’s been a week since I entered technological hell. Cashed my bad karma chips in. Wanted to get into gardening. Why? Last Sunday my IBM Travelstar 48GB drive I had put into my PowerBook G4/500 died. It died a year ago and was replaced by IBM, but now it was dying again. It had… Continue reading What amount backup?
What the hell is up with the Germans?
Germans ban Command and Conquer So they ban a game about war for glorifying war because it has no diplomatic solution. Well let’s ban Quake too! Oh and Pac Man, sure don’t see the ghosts and the infamous dot sitting down at the ole’ fruit table to debate things out. Asteroids is gone, those little… Continue reading What the hell is up with the Germans?
Beige? Yuck! :)

What a horrible idea
Macromedia has redone their entire site in Flash. It works, despite reports, in Safari, but you can no longer tell what is clickable (everything shows a hand, since it is a plugin!), you can’t select/copy text and I am sure this is not very accessible aware, since everything is a graphic! Yuckola.
Where in the world is Furyan!
On Everquest I play a character named Furyan. I have started a weblog so friends can follow along my adventures and also have a place where I can scribe information I find as I play. You too can read the scroll at: Furyan’s Tales of Adventure
What’s up with me!
As some of you know I have been really busy of late. Besides dating a wonderful person, I have been finishing up the port of TK3 to OS X (yes, amazing, eh?) and am just now getting printing working, then tackling performance. On top of that I have been playing Everquest a bit again and… Continue reading What’s up with me!
Want WiFi with that?
McDonalds will begin offering one hour of wifi access with your combination meal. Sweet, now I can eat a bunch of junk food and spend an hour sitting on my butt letting it settle in. Oh, wait, I do that at home already, sweet! Read story
Mac used in Army
Only one Mac, and it had to be specially ordered, but is used because the PC was just not fast nor stable enough when lives are at stake. Talk about an advertisement! Wired story here
Apple ships sendmail security update
Apple released a security update which fixes a flaw in Sendmail (which is off by default) and includes a more robust version of OpenSSH. You can get the update from Software Update. The Security Update addresses a security issue in sendmail where a remote individual could gain access and control of the system. Although sendmail… Continue reading Apple ships sendmail security update
Use Home address first
Turns out that iSync will only sync the “Home” address to a Palm. So if you have a company, ignore the urge to enter their address using the work label and use the Home label instead.
Welcome to Vonage
A couple of weeks ago I got a call from my brother about the Vonage voice over IP service. The call was clear and unlike most volP services I had used, it was full duplex, meaning we could both talk at the same time (for the most part) After reading reviews on the web I… Continue reading Welcome to Vonage
Apple releases Airport Extreme Upgrade
Apparently a lot of people have been having major problems with their Airport Extreme Basestations losing connectivity due to interference. This update is supposed to help with that issue. It is clear as we move into a more wireless world that we are going to need more regulation over the frequencies so these devices no… Continue reading Apple releases Airport Extreme Upgrade

Safari does not seem to like to find text in pages with frames. Anyone else seen this?
I have a dining table!
I have a dining table, finally. They were out of chairs, so those come soon!
wow
Life takes us on trips we’re not always expecting. Mine has been that way lately – No need to worry, life is wonderfully amazing. Will be a slow, rewarding road, cautious steps, being independant, seeing myself for my strengths more often now, someone in my life to be supportive, amazingly so, while I grow and… Continue reading wow
Staggered Windows
I don’t like the way Safari staggers new windows. they often end up with the scroll bars off the right edge of the screen, etc. I’d like an option to turn off staggering and just let me figure it out (or open new windows as tabs would be nice hehe)
