There are several images in this collection of beautiful feminine illustrations that just stopped me in my tracks. To me, the purpose of art is to evoke emotion or thought. This collection has a wealth of it. Two standouts are the one with the girl spinning a hoop/maze and this…
A while back someone had pointed me to World of Solitaire and asked for some UX advice. I tell it like it is, so for good and for bad, I will give my best advice. First, the good stuff. This is a technical marvel. Honestly, this is a ridiculously rich…

Miyagi: Now, ready? Daniel: Yeah, I guess so. Miyagi: [sighs] Daniel-san, must talk. Miyagi: Walk on road, hm? Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later *squish* get squish just like grape. Here, karate, same thing. Either you karate do “yes” or karate do “no.”…
For some reason, my internet access fails on Microsoft Vista Business 32-bit edition every time I reboot. The main symptom is that it puts a default gateway of 0.0.0.0 in the settings. Why is it doing this? I don’t think I am infected or anything. It’s happened to another computer…
Lately, I have been thinking about speed as the number one factor for software satisfaction. When a piece of software is fast, it makes the user so much happier than if it is just “powerful”. For example, in the early 90’s I loved XTreeGold. It was wicked fast and could…
Hooray! Someone finally nailed the background-repeat problem for PNG support. I have stopped stretching PNGs in the foreground because of IE intermittant issues. This, however, is a great solution. It’s in Alpha now, so maybe I should wait a bit to make sure it’s baked, but this is GREAT news. …
JibJab is so cool. They allow you to upload your own photo into the middle of their movie. How the hell do they do that?! Watch this one. I am in it. REMOVED LONG AGO
Miles: Sometimes you gotta say “What the F**k”, make your move. Joel, every now and then, saying “What the F**k”, brings freedom. Freedom brings opportunity, opportunity brings freedom.

Back when I had more hair. Jared looks so happy. Time flies. I got a new scanner, the CanoScan 4400F. So far, it’s pretty impressive. I am scanning Katie and my wedding album. Ahh memories and new technology. What more can I ask for?
I just finished the book, Designing the Obvious by Robert Hoekman, Jr. Although I appreciated his overall view and the points he was making, I just thought the book fell a little flat for me. In comparison, Don’t Make Me Think, was a much more enjoyable read. Neither book really…
Wow, that was fast. WordPress 2.6 is released. I actually had trouble with it for the first time ever. I downloaded the ZIP file and it had errors. I then tried the TAR file and it worked like normal, magically and instantly. This is my first moment using it, so…
I love upgrades. Trillian Astra just sent an update that allows me to see when someone is STARTING a message to me. I love this feature. I am so excited about it. Whenever I see the “Joe Smith is preparing a message to you”, I get giddy! I can’t believe…
I’m definetely pissing Katie off this weekend. I never have time during the week for this, so I have to do it now. Plus, since I am by the computer, I am moving a bunch of files from a smaller external HD to a larger one. This is taking alot…
