Also curtesy Ingle’s, lunch is a delicious (if large) collection of bargains. I downed a ham and cheese sandwhich and a dozen deviled eggs (6 whole eggs). For dessert, I’ll be packing down a half-pound puddle of pudding – bannana. There are also still four doughnuts from this morning that I need to take care… Continue reading Lunch: Recipes for Disaster

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 company sends me a brochure that might as well have been leathre-bound and gold-plated. It was ultra slick and obviously created at… Continue reading Dell Blade Server Preview
Dynamic Header @ 1976design.com
I’m deeply inspired by the efforts of Dunstan Orchard and friends in the development of a dynamic banner on his webpage. A friend of mine, Sean, pointed this site out to me. You just simply have to read the description, but here’s an excerpt: The sheep alternate their positions every other day, and also respond… Continue reading Dynamic Header @ 1976design.com
Mashed Potatoes and Crayons
Tonight we took Balthazar to Chili’s for dinner. They have a grilled cheese sandwhich and mashed potatoes that he seems to really enjoy. He has two ear infections [again] so it’s been hit or miss as to whether or not he would eat and/or stand for us eating. I walked him in and out of… Continue reading Mashed Potatoes and Crayons
The Epitome of Disgusting Males
We traveled out to my mom’s place, Dancing Goat’s Farm, for the day. There we visited with her and my grandmother and her sister. They’re “refugees of Hurricane Ivan” as Gwen (my grand aunt) put it. At any rate, my mom enlightened us to the behavior of a male goat with a field of female… Continue reading The Epitome of Disgusting Males
Bathroom Etiquette
This should probably be a meme if it isn’t already (note to self…). I have a list of things I would like to post in regards to bathroom etiquette. Please follow these simple guidelines when in my presence. *Do NOT* talk to me whilst I piddle or poo. Talking to me during a piddle is… Continue reading Bathroom Etiquette
Microsoft’s SMS 2003
I don’t think everyone knows this: The price paid for an SMS 2003 Primary Site Server license includes a SQL Server 2000 standard edition license. This from a reputable source at Microsoft. As always, don’t just go on my word.
Darren’s Laughable State of Personal Computing
“The computer industry’s track record is just shameful. In what other area of our consumer life would we accept ‘buggy’ products that only work some of the time? If your car (assuming it wasn’t a jalopy), tennis racket or can of Coke failed regularly, you’d be pretty upset. Yet, the software industry has failed to… Continue reading Darren’s Laughable State of Personal Computing
Queer Vampire – Vampires and AIDS
A question came up between friends recently on the topic of AIDS and vampires. For each of the four of us, we all had slightly differing opinons. The four answers were: Ed: The vampire contracts AIDS and dies after getting its first illness *CORRECTION* Ed thought that the vampire would get a cold, but recover… Continue reading Queer Vampire – Vampires and AIDS
99,999 Innocent Bystanders Spammed
“If only one out of every 100,000 people responds to spam and the spammers earn around $11, spamming is profitable. The other 99,999 people who don’t respond, who never respond, are innocent bystanders. That’s because the cost of spam is so low. But it’s not free.” More after the jump…
