The dawn of a new day, the dawn of a new relationship, the dawn of a new job and a new life? We'll see. Red at night, sailor's delight, red in the morning, sailors take warning. I guess that didn't have the word dawn in it at all, hmm. I know two people named Dawn. […]

Question: If you could have decided the outcome of the O.J. Simpson trial, what would your verdict be? My Answer: A whole lotta jail time for Orenthal. Easily. DNA evidence? The state blew that case so hard it's preposterous. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or […]

Kasia is wondering what to call software developers. She puts forth three main titles: programmer, software engineer, and hacker. Frankly, I'm not wild about any of the three.

The first two times I wrote about the girl I'm seeing1 were here and here. Upon re-reading those entries, it seems as though my subconscious was sneaking out to express some desire to indeed forge more than a friendship with this gal, though in such a way that my conscious mind would let it pass […]

Brad, 95% author of BackLight: I'm liking all these windows users feeling left out and pining for BackLight. Darn right, man. BackLight was mentioned again on Call for Help today (I've set my TiVo to record tomorrow morning's repeat) when a Windows user called in to ask Leo if they could do what BackLight does. […]

Just wanted to save the URL (feel free to visit it in the meantime): Developing MT Plugins. I haven't gotten into it myself, yet, but I'm blogging it in the hopes that I do, and soon. Y'know, when I free up one of those 25 hours I use each day. I wonder if borrowing time […]

Apple profits to the tune of $14M in its second quarter. Apple today posted a net profit of US$14 million, or 4 cents per diluted share, for its fiscal 2003 second quarter ended March 29, 2003. I fully expect their stock to drop 50 cents on the news tomorrow, cuz, y'know, that's how the stock […]

The Microsoft Ho has returned to her pimp. Yes folks, that's right. The whore herself, Robert Scoble, is now an employee of Microsloth, Micro$oft, or whatever other lame, childish title you wish to assign to one of the largest publishers of Mac (oh, and Windows) software in the world. It should go without saying that […]

Short order cooks are a rare breed these days. And what about customer service. I'm the customer, but where is the service. I like to call IHOP "dohi" because it's IHOP spun 180 degrees, and I bet they have short order cooks, right? But they also seem to have the worst waitresses ever. They mumble […]

Question: If you could read the mind of someone famous, who would it be and why? My Answer: [Snide answer]: George W. Bush because I've already got enough going on in my day that I don't need any extra thoughts popping up unexpectedly. [Actual answer]: Steve Jobs. A bit cliché I'm sure, but the guy's […]

Who will be worst this week? The blondes need to step it up. Josh Gracin needs to step it up. Clay, Rubin, Kimberley, and Trenyce seem likely to make the final four, though I want the first two to sing some different kinds of songs. Let's see how it all goes tonight.

When I think of a candle I think of a dinner with someone special, or those Yankee candles I get 25% off for getting the flavor (errr, scent) of the month from BB&B. Last night I burned a "Christmas Cookie" one I have left over from Christmas. It wasn't dinner, but my companion sure as […]
