Lately, I have been trying to keep my html well formed. (XHTML 1.0 Transitional) It is a lot harder to do, but I am finding that it is easier to debug on multiple browsers. Right now, I am working on a cleaned up version of http://www.intuit.com. This is also the debut of using OpenCube for…
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12077417/?from=ET Once again. What the hell is wrong with these people? The more I think about it, the more I feel society is DE-volving. Every business and government decision is moving us backwards. Every story about people makes me retch. Ugh. What the hell?
This is the third diaper I changed in 90 minutes. Matthew is a poop machine tonight. Daddy: Matthew, where did all this poop come from? Matt: Come from? Daddy: Yes, where did it come from? Matt: Come from? Daddy: Yes, where did it come from? Matt: Come from? Daddy: Yes, where did it come from?…

Well the results are in, and the Turbotax test did not lose. It actually won by a little. But it didn’t win by enough to justify changing so radically, which would have meant rethinking all of the tests coming up in the next few weeks. It’s a bummer. It was a good design. I don’t…
Today is Jared’s Birthday. He is 4 years old. Nana already sent a box of goodies. He is excited. His language is so good. He has grown so much, so quickly. Time is whipping past me. I can’t believe the last 11 years of my life. So much has happened. I feel like the same…
11 years ago today I met Katherine Elizabeth Peters in a Bar in NYC. She moved in by summer. We started a company by November. We got engaged and married. Had three babies and moved the California. And moved twice more. She has never let me down. She changed her name for me. She supports…
My first big test at Intuit is a new homepage for TurboTax.com. I am very excited and nervous. Take a look at the homepage now. If it has tabs on the left side in blue and gray, then it is the one we are testing. I am very nervous about it. Lots of analytics and…
Jared: Almost 4. Making all kinds of expressive gestures. Shrugging his shoulders, wrinkling his brow. (Furrowing?) We are not sure where to have his birthday. He wants Chuck E. Cheese, but Katie thinks it might be geared for kids a little older. Jared is throwing a football with pretty good form. He weighs 37 lbs…

I have been following this strange story about the ports in Dubai. Katie and I agree, we just do not care about this issue. There are other much more important issues on our radar. Who cares if Dubai manages a port? Security is not handled by them. Have you seen the Modern Marvels show on…
Setup: On NPR they had a story about Iraq. Here is the summary. Outlawed under Saddam Hussein’s rule, a Shia custom that allows a man to marry a woman for a short period of time has become increasingly popular in Iraq since the American invasion. But critics say it’s nothing more than religiously sanctioned prostitution.…
Not bad, but not perfect. HSX got all of them right except Best Picture. It was funny too, because we had all but concluded that HSX was 100% accurate. Definetely need to figure out what happened. The good news was that I was planning on dong the dishes anyway to help out around the house.…
Based on the book I am reading, The Wisdom of Crowds, I believe that the Hollywood Stock Exchange will predict every single Oscar winner accurately. Best Picture – Brokeback Mountain Best Director – Ang Lee for Brokeback Mountain Best Actor – Philip Seymour Hoffman in Capote Best Actress – Reese Witherspoon in Walk the Line…
