QotD: Ready for Winter

Question: Are you ready for Winter? My Answer: No. But this reminds me: I've gotta call around and see if there's a racketball league or something I can do this winter to keep myself occupied and busy. I'm not sure what place has racketball leagues in the winter here in Erie. For that matter, I'm […]

QotD: New TV Shows

Question: Which new TV shows do you like this year? My Answer: My Name is Earl looked like it had potential (I like Jason Lee), but it's got one more episode or I'm deleting it from my Season Pass. Martha Apprentice is bad, and Carey can watch that one by herself if it doesn't get […]

QotD: Moonroof

Question: Does your car have a moonroof? How often do you use it? My Answer: Yes. My first car, a 1999 Sunfire, had a moonroof and the thing was open all the time. Even in the winter. The Aztek didn't have one, and it's the only thing I'd have done differently if I could have […]

QotD: Commerce Christmas

Question: Have you started seeing Christmas decorations at your local retailers yet? My Answer: Yes. Decorations, mostly. Nobody's playing Christmas music or anything yet, but it's coming soon. Far too soon. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: One Universal Trait

Question: If you could supply everyone in the world with one personality or character trait, what would it be and why? My Answer: Honesty. Not 100% honesty, or surprise parties and things like that would be awfully difficult to pull off. So too would certain government (military) operations and things of that nature. So personal […]

QotD: Beta Testing

Question: Have you ever beta tested any software (in an official capacity, not by warezing an early build of Photoshop 17 or something)? My Answer: Yes, several times, and for several different companies. This question prompted by my next entry… You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments […]

QotD: Quit College

Question: Do you think quitting school (college) is a "good thing?" My Answer: Like Wil, I started my own software company. None of the jobs for which I've ever applied asked to see my college degree, because I've always proven myself to be a suitable candidate outside of my schooling. However, advising people to quit […]

QotD: Mental Health

Question: On a scale of one to ten, one being poor and ten being great, how's your mental health been lately? My Answer: About a seven. I ask only because the world has seen quite a bit of upheaval lately, school is back in session, fall is upon many of us, and Christmas decorations are […]

QotD: Baseball Cards

Question: Did you collect baseball cards as a kid? What did you do with them? My Answer: Yes. I sold them when I was about 14 to a kid for about $250. Thousands of cards, but none worth very much at all. The most were worth $10. Back then, $250 seemed like a lot of […]

QotD: Emptying the Trash

Question: Do you have the "warn me when emptying the trash" warning turned on or off? My Answer: Off. And I almost always use the keyboard shortcut. I put stuff in the trash only when I intend to erase it, so I usually just hit cmd-delete, shift-cmd-delete, and voilà! The files are gone. The one […]

QotD: Favorite Apple

Question: What is your favorite apple? My Answer: Granny Smith. Just the right amount of sour and sweet and crunch. They're also usually pretty big, too. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Wedding Crashers

Question: Have you ever crashed a wedding? My Answer: Yep. I was leaving another wedding ceremony, had four hours until the reception I was going to, and saw a wedding and reception just starting down the street. So I went, sat on the groom's side, and helped myself to some of the food at the […]

QotD: 125

Question: Without looking, what would you guess the 125th best player on the PGA Tour earned last year (125th on the money list)? My Answer: I know the answer. I'm curious how close the average, non-golf fan comes to guessing correctly. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the […]

QotD: Revolution(ary) Controller

Question: What the hell were they thinking? My Answer: I have no earthly idea. None. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Survivor

Question: Did you watch Survivor tonight? My Answer: No. But the TiVo recorded it… You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.
