  • Trip to NYC, Italy, Greece, Turkey and Switzerland

    So, I took my first vacation over seas. I started out in New York City (Photos), which isn’t over seas, but which I’d never been to before. Then I went to Italy (Photos), Greece (Photos), Turkey — for a few hours (Photos), and a one night layover in Zuric Switzerland. You can read an entirely…

  • Wanna Get Greased

    I’m still not really here (as per my article below). I just had to pop in to say that while I use Mozilla rather than Firefox (mostly just because I prefer the way they handle URL completion in the address bar), this article about how Greasemonkey will blow up business models makes me think that…

  • Somebody Must Love the Internet

    OK, I thought it was kind of funny when the TV show Arrested Development referenced the Star Wars kid. But, that is nothing compared to the Robot Chicken I just watched. An all out brawl breaks out at a SciFi Convention, and they reference the Lightning Bolt, Lighting Bolt Video. That is one extremely obscure…

  • Santa Anita Park

    I drove up to Santa Anita Park to watch the horses run and take some photos. It’s a very nice park, and it made for a nice outing. It’s like 30 minutes between races though which is far too long to have to wait.
