FTPeel Public Beta 2 is coming real soon now. A quick list of some of the bigger fixes and updates: Some crashing bugs fixed. Some memory conserved (not leaked), etc. MagicMirror greatly improved (and now recursive as it should have been in the first verison). Directories can now be deleted. Usernames with "non-token" URL characters […]

QotD: Favorite State

Question: What is your favorite state? My Answer: Bliss. 🙂 You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

Austin on TV

The first Austin Powers movie is on TV, and I caught it at the point when Vanessa (Liz Hurley) is talking to her mother on the phone. Part of the scene requires Vanessa to move her arm, a magnifying glass, a tea kettle, etc. just so to hide the Powers Penis. The "biting the sausage" […]

Soundtrack

I got my copy of Final Cut Pro 4 yesterday when I returned from California. I've installed it, but haven't launched it yet. I have, however, launched Soundtrack, an app a friend of mine is working on as an intern with Apple this summer. I've played with it only a little, but so far I […]

QotD: Success

Question: If you were to be successful in another profession, what would you want to do? My Answer: Play on the PGA tour. Which reminds me: the U.S. Open is on, and I've got my TiVo recording it. If I start watching soon, I should be able to skip the commercials and finish up at […]

I’m Polish

If you can't laugh at yourself, then you're going to have a long, unhappy life. I'm Polish, and these kinds of jokes are still very funny.

QotD: Supreme Court

Question: If you could have been on the United States Supreme Court for any single case in its history, which would you select and why? My Answer: The Microsoft case. Especially given recent news that - oops - their browser will now be part of their OS. After all, that was a big part of […]

QotD: Service

Question: If you could have one free service in your home every day, what would you take? My Answer: Is "the call girl of my choosing" a "service"? 🙂 No, that's not my answer. I'm sure I'd quickly get tired of having beautiful, naked, willing women around me every day. Uh huh. You are encouraged […]

QotD: From Home

Question: How far do you live from the place "where you grew up?" My Answer: I grew up near Erie, PA, and Boca Raton, FL is about 16 hours (if you drive fast) by car, three by plane, and about 1250 miles. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in […]

QotD: Learning

Question: What's the toughest thing you've ever had to learn? My Answer: That people, even though they say they can, really can't deal with honesty. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

From a mailing list I'm on: …my failure to find a suitable starting point drove me to Java. I've not delved too deep (chewing on OO topics more than anything) but having to tackle the whole of C before beginning on Objective-C seems daunting. Thing is, "the whole of C" can be learned quite easily […]

QotD: Instruments

Question: Can you play an instrument? My Answer: I can play a trumpet (and many other brass instruments). I can (barely) play a piano. I could probably learn to play others, but as far as being able to play things well, just the trumpet, really. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day […]

Saw The Italian Job a few days ago. Charlize looks good throughout, the Mini Cooper chase scenes are okay, Ed Norton is his typical good self. Pure escapist theater - nothing to learn, no astounding effects - just a good show for (out here in CA) an increasingly pricy cost. After leaving the show, though, […]

QotD: Fish

Question: What's the biggest fish you've ever caught? My Answer: A shark, about 180 lbs, when I visited Florida. I think I was about six, but as everyone that knows me at all would tell you, nearly everything happened to me when I was six. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day […]

Reviews

If you're going to write such a short review, why write a review at all? As to the "elite ebanks" gentleman who commented, I am 100% positive that he never wrote (nor did he buy the software according to our records). Our metrics for customer response: over 90% of those who write in are replied […]
