If you haven’t had one of these, you are a depraved soul bound for a hell of ignorance. One taste of such goodness and your senses become more keen than ever. You also get super-powers from them. I got one at Ingle’s (Grocery Store) – now I’m a slave to sweetened butter and promiscuous glaze… Continue reading Doughnut Croissant

There and Back Again…and There Again
So I get into work this morning at 10-till-7:00am. This would give me plenty of time to work-out and take a shower before I start my day out. Everything is going as planned until I open the rear, driver-side door to get my gym bag. There on my rear, passenger-side seat sits the baby’s car… Continue reading There and Back Again…and There Again

Dell Blade Server Preview
I’m under an NDA, so I can’t actually tell you anything about Dell’s blade servers coming 4th quarter, 2004. What I can tell you is that Brocade never ceases to amuse me.

This achievment is said to be the door to spaceward tourism, though I’m not as concerned about that. I would certainly enjoy a flight to space, but I’m guessing the price is a bit steep at the moment. We… Continue reading SpaceShipOne Wins $10 Million Ansari X Prize in Historic 2nd Trip to Space
Power Outtage
It’s a beautiful fall day and my office building lost power for almost an hour. Seems inexplicable, but it was a good excuse to go out and enjoy the afternoon sunshine for a bit.
Starbuck’s in Gainesville
I’ve been eyeing the “Coming Soon” sign sitting innocently at a local Starbucks development. I’m not a trendy suburbanite, I just like coffee a great deal. While their’s is not the best I can get, it certainly beats gas stations and many of the pseudo coffee houses. There is some fear from locals that a… Continue reading Starbuck’s in Gainesville

Why don’t they create a camera with internet access? why should we suffer with inferior optics in cell phones?
Social Innovation Forum
In follow-up to my previous post, I found some relevant information on the voter’s lottery idea. I don’t recall the name of the person credited on NPR for the idea, but I’m thinking Alan Kay was not the guy. At any rate, his article was interesting to skim. And for what it’s worth, I’d pay… Continue reading Social Innovation Forum
