Time To Find A New Sport : November 21, 2003 : Note 1

That looks SLIGHTLY painful!  I think that after something like that, I’d try my hand at another sport.  Below is the Reuters caption for the photo: Hossein Barkhah of Iran dislocates his elbow attempting to lift 157.5…

Adobe Axes LiveMotion : November 21, 2003 : Note 0

Adobe has finally seen the writing on the wall and stopped distributing LiveMotion.  LiveMotion was their response to the huge popularity of Macromedia’s Flash.  LiveMotion had some good things going for it, but wasn’t as solid, IMO, as Flash.  I tried both…

Time for me to ask if there’s anyone that needs Web work done.  I’ve never had any responses through my site before, but I gotta keep trying, right?  Business is slow again, and it’s like pulling teeth to bring the money in.  I’m in a bind, and need the work. …

20” iMac : November 18, 2003 : Note 0

Apple has come out with a new 20" iMac!  20 inches!  My 17” iMac’s screen is plenty big, but a 20” would be amazing.  The price is a little higher than the other iMacs though, starting at $2200.  It looks amazing, and makes a great addition…

HD TV : November 14, 2003 : Note 2

Today we switched from regular satellite TV to high definition satellite and the difference is astounding.  My jaw hit the floor when we first watched Discovery HD Theater.  The colors are amazing.  The detail is awe inspiring.  I think I have a new favorite channel!  Along with Discovery, there is…

Comedy Central Comes Calling… : November 14, 2003 : Note 1

Well I just had a bit of a thrill.  Unfortunately, it was short-lived.  The phone rang about 5 minutes ago and a very nice sounding woman was on the other end.  She mentioned her name and said she was working on a show for Comedy Central!  I immediately got a…

In Flanders Fields In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead.…
