Question: How do you primarily use the Finder: Column, List, or Icon view? My Answer: I typically have one window open in column mode (six columns wide and a skinny sidebar).

Yes, the site is now blue instead of green. I can pretty quickly change the colors now because there is so little imagery, and I changed the font in the title while I was at it. I also added little "fades" to the comments. If you see anything green (after reloading your stylesheet) that should […]

Question: How frequently do you wash your car? My Answer: Once every few months. If then. 🙂 Former neighbor/friend Gabe bought a Jetta in, oh, 2003 or so and washed the darn thing every day the first two weeks he had it. He slowed down to every other day for the next few months, and […]

Question: Hillary or Walken in 2008, if you had to pick between the two? My Answer: Walken. Oh, and I saw on the news that Arnold wants to run, but, uhhh, until that whole "born in the United States" rule is changed, well shucks, he's just outta luck. You are encouraged to answer the Question […]

Aaron asked for a picture, so here it is - the image on page 55 of one of the Touareg manuals: Apparently, Touaregs are popular with the baby-throwing crowd. 😛 No, really, the picture is meant to demonstrate that a baby which is not properly strapped in can - after a brief Superman moment - […]

For Ron, who thought the "Touareg" was "a computer thing," so he "ignored all those posts" and then prepared a speech about how I was a bad, greedy American for buying a Hummer… 🙂 The Touareg looks pretty nifty from the front - part SUV, part car, and not very "truck-like" at all. I like […]
