Archive for May, 2005

I'm in Columbus, OH through at least Friday covering The Memorial Tournament for The Sand Trap. Today, I saw Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus hit a ball to two feet, Vijay Singh hit a ball to one foot, and an amateur beat them all. Good times! Check out my coverage (and a lot of pictures) […]

In a bash prompt: for filename in * # Traverse all files in directory. do fname=`basename $filename` n=`echo $fname | tr A-Z a-z` # Change name to lowercase. if [ "$fname" != "$n" ] # Rename only files not already lowercase. then mv $fname $n fi done Thanks, Aaron.

Carey and I were married on Friday, May 27, 2005. It was a small ceremony behind the district justice's office (the outgoing Frank Abate), next to a playground and near to some trees that "everyone picks." It cost all of $33.50, bringing our total spending for "the wedding" to a whopping $78.50. If you want […]

QotD: Famous People

Question: Who is the most famous person with whom you've ever spoken? My Answer: Steve Jobs. The CEO with whom I spoke a few weeks ago is a close second. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Memorial

Question: How do you celebrate Memorial Day? My Answer: I typically don't. This year I'll be celebrating with Carey's family, though. It'll be kinda nifty to do the traditional picnic thing. The weather is certainly nice enough for it. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or […]

QotD: Bike

Question: Do you own a bike? What kind? My Answer: I do. It's a black and yellow GT… something. It was the last one off the production line and a very popular model. OK, I'm going to the car to look… It's a GT Rebound. Bought it in 2000 or so, IIRC. Paid at least […]

QotD: Gummi Bears

Question: How do you eat Gummi Bears? My Answer: I eat the colors I don't like first (yellow, white) then move into the indifferent ones (green), then finish with orange and finally red. Sometimes I bite the heads off. Sometimes I bite the heads off and stick them on the bodies of other colors. You […]

QotD: Steak

Question: If you're in the mood for a good steak (and can't cook one yourself), to which restaurant do you head? My Answer: Texas Roadhouse or Outback. There are a few differences between the two, but Outback is certainly more expensive. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the […]

QotD: Gas Station

Question: At the gas station, do you pay inside or outside? Cash or credit? My Answer: Outside and with a credit card. I really, really dislike gas stations with broken handles. I like to squeeze the pump handle, lock it in place, and clean my windshields. Pumps with broken handle locks suck. Regardless, pay at […]

QotD: PLIST

Question: Are you down with .plists going binary in 10.4? My Answer: Not really. I use(d) BBEdit and some CLI tools to edit .plist files in 10.2.x and 10.3.x. Now, what, PList Editor? You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Vacation ’05

Question: Are you going on vacation this year? If so, to where and with whom? When? My Answer: Nope. I'm travelling now, and then Carey and I will have house responsibilities. Happy happy fun joy! 🙂 Next year we'll probably go on a small vacation, though. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the […]

QotD: Tattoo

Question: Do you have a tattoo? If not, do you think you'll ever get one? My Answer: No and no. I don't find them particularly attractive on women, either. In southern Florida, just about every woman under the age of 30 has a tattoo just above her ass. So much for being unique… You are […]

QotD: Gaming

Question: Do you play console (PS2, XBox, GameCube, etc.) games anymore? How frequently? My Answer: Not really. About two hours in the past three months. I've had other things on my mind, I admit, but still… You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

Getting Married on Friday

Carey and I have set a date for our wedding: Friday, May 27, 2005. I was born on March 23, 1978 and she on October 27, 1977, so have at it numerology freaks. 😉 We'll be married by a soon-to-be retired district justice (people only seem to refer to them as "JP"s or "Justices of […]

Yesterday I spent some time with my friend Ron. It seems I'm going to be playing on his church softball league this year. To play on the team, I'll have to attend at least two church ceremonies per month. It's been a decade and a half since I've attended church with any regularity. I'm still […]
