BoingBoing TidBits

Via BoingBoing, we learn of the Watsui Cow’s rather well-endowed head. Link Suprisingly, there’s very little information discovered about the watsui cattle through a quick google.com search. I also checked the Wikipedia, but nothing there either. I’d write something if only I had found a relevant source. Also, this rather funny sign:

SMS 2003 Health Check Results (Techie)

The health check was more or less a complete success. We didn’t actually have any real problems in our environment, though we were given some performance tuning options to resolve any that *may* arrive later. That said, the single most important piece of information regarding an SMS 2003 engineering task has been this: “The SPN… Continue reading SMS 2003 Health Check Results (Techie)

Viewer’s Guide to Spring’s First Full Moon

Just as the vernal equinox appears to be more variable than they’ve led us to believe, Easter has a similar scheduling nightmare. As it turns out, the Vatican has held rights to the position of Easter in our calendar (admittedly, theres anyway), though it is noticeably in contrast to the astronomical projections of the same… Continue reading Viewer’s Guide to Spring’s First Full Moon

Learnin’ From the Best (Techie)

Today I’m learning some new tricks in SMS 2003. Not that you want to read about that, I’m just laying the ground work for my excuse to ignore this blog. At any rate, I’ll be working with Brett F. at Microsoft to do a “Health Check” of our environment through Friday. Don’t expect anything monumental… Continue reading Learnin’ From the Best (Techie)

Do you…Flickr?

The folks at Flickr have been rumored to be in discussions with Yahoo on a potential purchase. All rumors aside, the news became a reality Sunday when they announced that they had, in fact, reached an agreement with Yahoo for the purchase of Flickr (and Ludicorp). I hate seeing this happen to seemingly innovative startups… Continue reading Do you…Flickr?

FireFox: 1, IE 7: -1

Internet Explorer 7 will be releasing sometime this summer (as currently planned) to retrofit a browser losing popularity in the latest war. FireFox has gained an unimaginable 10%+ of the market in a very short period of time. I, myself, have been swayed to gear my development efforts towards FireFox’s support model. From what Dean… Continue reading FireFox: 1, IE 7: -1

The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging

If you don’t frequent ChangeThis.com, you probably should. They play host to many a free resource for the techno-exec style white paper. I recently read through The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging, which was actually a good read cover to cover (as most of their guides are). The topics covered helped me with my personal… Continue reading The Beginner’s Guide to Business Blogging

Greetings from A Far Away Land

It’s sort of funny – that me and nahnu.org have sort of a meme on this. If you read the post from my birthday, you’ll know I randomly wished people “Happy Birthday” in the blogosphere on my birthday. It turns out that it was very rewarding, socially speaking. I made some people’s days, and got… Continue reading Greetings from A Far Away Land

MadLib Biographies

My friend, Jason D., sent me a chain-letter to fill out and send to a million people for good luck or something. I am against such things, but I like Jason and wish to at least better his luck. Instead of emailing everyone with my MadLib biography, I chose to post it here on my… Continue reading MadLib Biographies
