If this ever happens to me…
An interview with the author of the worst novel published this year
Found this on Neil Gaiman’s blog. Ouch. I hope this never happens to me (I’m still waiting on all the hate mail from readers of my NaNoWriMo novel 
)
And the guy is from Wisconsin…
Hidden Christians
NPR - Remembering Mr. Rogers
Mr. Rogers is dead. The first television show I was allowed to watch was Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood and I’m sure it was the same for a lot of people my age. There are a lot of articles today about the man (I used Google’s news page to find them) […]
Tooth Story
A frquent reader of this blog, who shall go unnamed, said that lately it’s been all geekery and teeth. This is still about teeth. Sorta.
I wrote a story about it and performed it last night at Uncommon Ground. The stars all aligned for this. There was no Titanic show last night, […]
Phone Envy
Versiontracker - Ericsson Clicker
I really want a T68 now. This program is so cool. You can use your phone as a remote control for your computer and also as a proximity detector so that when you near your computer, it starts playing music and checking your mail. Whee!
Teeth, again
I’m beginning to feel like Bill Murray’s masochist character from Little Shop of Horrors. Today marked my third trip to the dentist in about as many weeks. Sigh. to recap, I had a filling fall out at the end of January, so I signed up with the dentist that my brother goes […]
Birthing Pains
You know, sometimes I just get totally sidetracked from my main project goals as I chase rabbits down endless hallways.
Case in point: the whole bitmap -> vector thing. After wrestling the entire day with autotrace and frontline and fink, I found myself about to write my own frontend in AppleScript. As I looked […]
You know
You know you’ve been watching a compile job too long when words start appearing made of flags and flag prefixes. Like “-funroll-loops” and “-Wall -y” and make you think of a midget named Wally doing funroll loops in the sky somewhere.
Every time I think: oh, great, opensource software will save me, I am rammed […]
Spam that works?
Update: using this program made me do some extra research. Turns out that SIAME just wrapped a shell around this program called Celinea. And Celinea distributes a free DOS version. So, perhaps once I learn VB, I’ll make my own wrapper. I tell you, this comic teaches me more technical […]
Back in the Saddle
Isn’t he cute? He doesn’t have a name or really a place to go yet, but I think he’s the next comic character I make. I’m not really sure where he fits or what type of world it will be, but rest assured it’ll be different from Scrubs, yet comfortingly familiar. I […]
Photon!
X-Entertainment: Photon - The Television Series.
My brother used to get the Photon books. The books were all pretty light sci fi reading, and obviously tied into the Photon franchise, but the book that survived our childhood was the more serious “Thieves of Light.” Which is probably why my memories of the Photon stuff […]
