Well, I just upgraded a couple of my favorite plugins…
I upgraded my anti-spam plugin - Spam Karma 2 to version 2.1 from the 2.1 beta version. Got to keep myself protected from those evil spammers!
I also upgraded my photo gallery plugin - FAlbum from version 0.5.3 to version 0.6.3. Since flickr is where I […]

I noticed tonight that when I look at my site with my google deskbar in sidebar mode, I lose my left hand side site navigation. I wonder whether I should make the site work for screens smaller than 1024×768, or whether I should leave it alone.
Thoughts? Comments?

I’ve been sent to San Francisco for work. More accurately, a training class for CA Brightstor ARCserve (mouthful, isn’t it?). The arrangements were made by one of the departments executive assistants. Flight on United, rental car with Budget, and a room at the Homewood Suites by Hilton.
So this is how the trip up went. The […]

I got my iPod. I bought it just before we left for Utah. I bought it thanks to the efforts of Katie, who prodded all my friends to buy me BestBuy gift cards for my birthday.
I decided to purchase the 30gb iPod. I thought the 60gb iPod would be overkill since I have about 25gb […]

Last night, Katie and I went out to dinner at a new restaurant in Long Beach - Tokyo Wako. Located at the Pike, Tokyo Wako is a Japanese style steakhouse. We found the food to be excellent. I had the Ni Ban Teppan - Shrimp, Scallops and New York steak cooked teppan style at the […]

Well, a short time ago I interviewed for a position that beautifully lined up with my skills and knowledge. I sat on pins and needles waiting for a response to the interview (OK, three interviews in one day) that I thought had gone tremendously well.
Yesterday I got a response. The response was in the form […]

While I don’t find this surprising, NEWS.com.au (that’s in Australia mind you) has a story about an official from the Vatican defending Darwin’s theory of evolution and stating that it is perfectly compatible with the creation of the Universe as depicted in the Bible. Wired has a slightly different take in an AP story that […]

Saw this link on Slashdot, Air Force testing new transparent armor, and thought of a novel application for it. Homes. Windows are the least protective part of your house. You can easily break one by throwing a small rock, or as my dog, Java, has recently proven by repeatedly butting your head into it. I […]
