Cause for Pride…

Thursday, June 26th, 2003

Over the past year I’ve struggled to find cause to be proud of our country and our actions. Don’t get me wrong - I still feel very lucky to live where I do and have the freedoms I have. But I’ve also been far less than proud of the behavior of our elected officials [...]

Messanging Observations

Wednesday, June 25th, 2003

I’ve been using the new iChat for a few days now and for the most part I’m loving it… However it has made me think more about how I use instant messaging and how I communicate with people…
I’ve found the voice part very impressive - the quality is outstanding and having a full duplex conversation [...]

Conference observations

Monday, June 23rd, 2003

Spend the day at the Developer’s Conference today and had a couple of observations:
- Our new iSight and the new iChat AV? Very cool… The Audio Quality is VERY good and full duplex - just like a phone.. Did notice some noticable lags when talking to Clayton in NYC but with people close by it [...]

WWDC and Coffee

Monday, June 23rd, 2003

So I’m spending the morning trapped in a coffee shop because the electricians are upgrading the meters in our building to code and installing a few extra breakers in our house… And for some fool reason they want to turn the power off… hmmmmppppfffff… You’d think that a professional could do all that stuff with [...]

A weird phenomena…

Sunday, June 22nd, 2003

So I’ve become completely fascinated by this whole ‘blog’ phenomena and what people choose to write about… I’ve spent many hours lately diving down the rabbit hole - bouncing from one blog to another seeing who is out there and what they write about and what the comments are like for each entry… It just [...]

The Closet

Wednesday, June 18th, 2003

Arguably I’ve led a charmed life when it comes to being ‘out’. My family has all been amazing when I came out to them - it didn’t seem to phase them at all.. The only change in their attitudes I could see was that my mom switched from trying to set me up with girls [...]

Here we go again…

Tuesday, June 17th, 2003

He just posted an article that sounds strikingly familiar:

Special forces ‘prepare for Iran attack’

I’m speachless.. not surprised mind you given how out of control the administration is already.. But… uggg… I’ll just let the article speak for itself… I just hope the folks that supported the LAST invasion (and the one before that) hold the [...]

Oh my LORD

Tuesday, June 17th, 2003

Workout KICKED my ASS today and I don’t think it was just the routine we did… Matt and I are trying a new routine that we stole from one of Kevin’s books and it seems really good so far - all about compound super sets which seems to be a good thing.. But part of [...]

From the 7th Grade

Monday, June 16th, 2003

I just found this little thing I wrote in 7th Grade English in a Drawer here at work. The assignment was to describe the image shown in a picture she gave us. My parents and my teachers LOVED it.. I got an A.. To this day I STILL don’t know why.

The CDC

Sunday, June 15th, 2003

and the current administration never cease to amaze me (ok.. well, frankly, i’m not surprised at all - but still)… Driving home from the south bay today I heard on NPR that the CDC is threatening to cut federal funding to the Stop AIDS Project. It seems that they don’t like the sexually explicit nature [...]

Note to self

When something pisses you off at work - make sure to close the door before screaming “BLOW ME”… HR frowns on such things…

Phelps and Pies…

Friday, June 13th, 2003

“The way things work”

Thursday, June 12th, 2003

So I had this COOL book when I was a kid called “The way things work”. It was this wicked cool book that explained how everything works - from cars to computers to blenders
