First of all, it was extremely difficult to install. I finally found this page which helped me figure it out. The drivers for the phone were incorrect. The correct ones were in a zip called p2k.zip. The Motorola website was horrible. It refused to give any help. This site was more helpful. The UI for…
The White House is facing lots of indictments for the Valerie Plame incident. I am hoping for Karl Rove to be put in jail, along with Dick Cheney and Scooter Libby. I am also hoping for the Jets to magically solve their Quarterback problem. I do not have high expectations for either, but I you…
What is Interaction Design? What is Information Architecture? What is Product Management? What is Requirements Analysis? These are the things I do to earn money for my family. But I love doing them, as well. The thing I love best is solving a problem in an elegant way. It is a wonderful feeling to look…
This morning Katie told me a great story about herself while brushing her teeth. It was very funny and she was very animated. However, she refused to sign tghe waiver which would allow me to record the story for posterity. This is a general loss for the entire internet. It was that good. So if…
The Jets game just ended a short while ago. Ugliest game I have ever seen. Seriously, it looked like a high school game. Atlanta was terrible, the Jets were worse. It was as if both teams were TRYING to lose. 7 turnovers. Blech. Vinny got hurt. Vinny is old (41) and has played poorly since…
Where is your nose? Where is your ear? Where is your brain? Big hug? Kiss? Say Thank You. Matthew responds correctly to every one of these tests. He is a good boy. Yesterday, we took the training wheels off Jared’s bike. He rode very well. He doesn’t exactly knowhow to stop or turn or start…
When people are having a conversation really close to you, is it rude to eavesdrop? I mean if they are not being quiet and you were sitting there minding your own business, what are you supposed to do? I am sitting in this situation right now. Should I put on my head phones? Scream? Pretend…
Ok, if this doesn’t make you laugh, something is wrong with you. First watch Tom Cruise on Oprah. I didn’t laugh at this, I was in disbelief. Then watch Tom Kill Oprah. I laughed. It’s funny, come on! Then watch a guy making fun of Tom Cruise for jumping on Oprah. I chuckled. Then watch…
Finally the cracks in the Republican dam are showing. Delay is being indicted. Additionally, Karl Rove and Scooter Libby are on the hot seat and may be indicted as well. This just goes to show, Republicans are evil. I heard George Clooney on NPR. He is very well spoken and a progressive. God Bless him!…
Using the latest build. All of the sudden, blam! BSOD! The machine reboots and gives it again. I can’t log in at all. Safe mode works, so I tried different video drivers, no love. I tried this and that and still no love. It is starting to wear on my patience. Next, I am going…
You can never pick two of them. You can only have one. The most important thing in the world. It can not be three things. The most important thing. Not the top ten. In the end, there can only be one. The most important thing in the world is … “A Positive Attitude”. A positive…
I spent the last two days trying to get my video drivers working for Windows Vista. I have a nVidia Quadro FX 540. I found 6 different versions of drivers. Only one worked. It was the one that came with the “additional drivers” on the windows install ISO ( LDDM = Longhorn Display Driver Model).…
I installed Beta 2 (build 5231, 32-bit) this morning. It wasn’t finished by the time I left for work. So far, I am unenthusiastic about the new UI. I am using a 2.8 ghtz Pentium D, with 4G of ram, and everything runs slow. The worst part of the UI is the Windows Explorer. It…
The new Apple iPod has video. This reminds me of a conversation I had in 1997 with the EVP of Sales for Columbia Tri-Star Television Distribution. He asked me how the internet would affect television. I told him, “Watch the music industry. They are going to deal with Music on the net over the next…
