Keeping in the write frame of mind

12:10 pm on Wed, 24 Dec 2003

I’m very antsy these days waiting for my coming break (Unigene shuts down for the week between Christmas and New Year’s :-D ) as it will give me a lot of free time to work on projects sitting idle in my mind. Re-installing my server on the Linux distro of my choice will be [...]

Nullsoft forgets how to count

4:39 pm on Mon, 22 Dec 2003

Okay, normally I’m opposed to skipping version numbers, but in the case of Winamp it seems like the right decision. I’ve used Winamp since the early days of MP3s (and for you n00bs that’s the 90s, not 2001 ;) ), but I was very disappointed with version 3. I went back to the [...]

Party Time!

12:38 pm on Sun, 21 Dec 2003

Okay, here’s a quick rundown of the weekend. Big campany holiday party on Friday. Had a great time with a little overdose on beef, beer, wine, and dancing – more on that later. Had to fight traffic to pick up Lisa from her company party in JC. She won a digital camera! Yesterday it took [...]

Luck overcomes stupidity

12:55 pm on Fri, 19 Dec 2003

Maybe two weeks ago I did something stupid. Okay, it’s not like I haven’t done anything stupid since then, it’s just that was the last truly noteworthy stupidity. I’m regularly moving files around my server and it’s been a dream of mine for the past year or so to actually have a completely organized photo [...]

The lesser of two lessers

5:55 pm on Tue, 16 Dec 2003

While meandering across the vast wasteland of the Internet, I stumbled across a sports parody/humor site. The best comment came regarding an “incident” from last year between Carolina punter Todd Sauerbrun and the Flying Gramaticas:
Kicker and Punter Feud about to Explode
Carolina punter Todd Sauerbrun and the brothers/kickers Gramatica [Martin (Bucs) and Bill (Cards)] has escalated [...]

So the ends DO justify the means

5:14 pm on Mon, 15 Dec 2003

That’s what those wonderful election-stealing, trigger-happy Republicans would have you believe. Of course some of us think for ourselves and don’t despise those in the world that are different. Certainly I can’t complain about the capture of such an awful human being as Hussein, but that still does not legitimize a war based upon lies. [...]

Who drinks cherry wine?

3:03 pm

The other night I actually watched a new episode of Scrubs on TV. The odd thing was that I had already downloaded and watched it on my computer. The whole world is just screwy when I can no longer count on the speed of TV programming to keep up with the demands of Internet piracy. [...]

The end of the world

8:51 am on Fri, 12 Dec 2003

Every so often you still find something on the Internet that makes you laugh. It’s a little flash animation that definitely put me in a good mood to start the day. You have to listen to it, so beware of sound, and enjoy :grin: .

Ugh

10:14 am on Thu, 11 Dec 2003

I’ve got a bunch of posts waiting in the wings until I have time to finish them. In the meantime I’d like to point out that all of that horrible snow has been replaced by miserable rain. Today’s driving was faster, but not a whole lot better than Friday. For the first time in many [...]

I’m dreaming of a white…

12:20 pm on Fri, 5 Dec 2003

It’s snowing here. Freakin’ hard, I might add. And it’s actually sticking. I might try to get out of here soon. I’d rather spend the afternoon playing video games next to my fireplace then sitting around here accomplishing nothing. Uh, that’s all.
