Barbra Streisand Smart! : October 16, 2002 : Note 0

Rachel Lucas spotted this gem over at Barbra Streisand’s Web site.  Barbra has a section on her site called the “Truth Alert”.  Today’s truth alert has a minor error in it.  Just in case someone over there noticed the mess up and changed it already, I have made a…

Another Fisking : October 16, 2002 : Note 0

Dave Hill takes one of Robert Fisk’s typically full-of-lies-and-half-truths articles and gives it a thorough thrashing.  It’s quite interesting to read.  I saw this Fisk article a few days ago, but didn’t feel like dealing with it.  Like I said earlier, I’ve been kind of burned out on all…

Microsoft pulls ad : October 15, 2002 : Note 0

Micro$oft has to be the dumbest, least creative company on the face of the Earth!  Not only can they not come up with an original ad campaign, they can’t even come up with genuine content for an ad. Microshaft (until several hours ago) had a Web page that copied almost…

New PowerPC chip coming : October 14, 2002 : Note 0

IBM unveiled it’s new PowerPC chip called the 970.  It’s a 64-bit chip that also runs 32-bit applications.  Many analysts say one of the first companies using it will be Apple.  The 970 is a “lite” version of IBM’s Power4 chip, which currently runs in its…

Sensationalized News : October 14, 2002 : Note 1

I’ve grown tired of the news these days.  They’ve been rehashing the same stories 40 times over.  Iraq this, Al Qaeda this, DC sniper that… it’s just about all you see and hear these days in the news.  I’ve made well over 30 posts on the subjects.  I don’t have…

I must be really trustworthy : October 13, 2002 : Note 0

I’m even more “with it” now.  I have received another money scam email, but not from Nigeria.  This time it’s from the Democratic Republic of Congo.  Once again (in hopes that a spam bot picks up this email address), here’s how you can contact this wonderful person: .(JavaScript must…

Cirque du Soleil : October 10, 2002 : Note 2

I’ve always been a big fan of Cirque du Soleil.  Watching what the human body can do is amazing.  I have seen many of their shows on TV, but never in person.  Their shows are always very professional and artistic.  They’re always fun to watch. I found

Cool OS X Feature : October 10, 2002 : Note 0

This may already be old news to many of you who use Mac OS X 10.2, but I just discovered a nifty little feature.  Say you’ve got a file you want to drag into a window, but that window is partially off-screen.  Instead of moving the window and then dragging…

What Al Qaeda Has Learned So Far : October 10, 2002 : Note 0

Glenn at InstaPundit links to an interesting post about some things Al Qaeda fighters have learned about American and other Western troops.  I was particularly interested in the following bit from the article: Al Qaeda who had fought the Russians also discovered that shooting officers first doesn’t stop…

Signs of a Dysfunctional Family : October 10, 2002 : Note 1

The top 9 indications your family may be dysfunctional: 9. Family discussions usually begin with, “Put the gun down.” 8. Your vacations are planned through AA instead of AAA. 7. New bill to ban assault weapons specifically mentions your family. 6. In…
