QotD: Dentist Visits

Question: When was the last time you went to the dentist? When they're cleaning your teeth, are your eyes open or closed? My Answer: Today. Prior to that, waaaaaaay too long ago to mention. I keep my eyes open, though sometimes I close them and almost drift off to sleep or play a round of […]

Huh? From ErieBlogs.com comes this: I had the oil changed in my car over the weekend. As the guy was explaining the services they performed, checking the wipers, etc, he said "Normally we check the tire inflation but noticed that you had green valve caps. They're filled with nitrogen and since nitrogen doesn't leak out […]

QotD: iWeb

Question: What is 'iWeb?' My Answer: I don't know. Or at least that's my official response. If I were to guess and have some fun with it, I'd suggest that it's a tool that ties into .Mac and iTunes and Safari and iPhoto and iMovie. iDVD, sadly, will not have much to do with it. […]

Question: Do you like Mac OS X's font rendering more, less, or the same as Mac OS 9's? Why or why not? My Answer: Articles like "Coping With Mac OS X's Font Rendering" irk me. I, along with many, think that the font rendering in Mac OS X is far superior to that of Mac […]

New Year Resolutions

I don't make new year resolutions, because I tend to believe that if you're serious about improving yourself as a human being, you should resolve to make positive changes in your life throughout the year, not just after a dramatic event (someone dying, a breakup, financial collapse, etc.) or because the calendar reads "January 1." […]

QotD: New Year

Question: How are you going to ring in the new year? My Answer: By sleeping through the change, perhaps? Nah, I'll probably be awake, though I won't be counting anything down. Just another day. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Gender of Child

Question: If you could choose the gender of your child, would you? My Answer: Yes. It'd be a boy, but that's because I have a girl already (kinda). If I had no kids, I think I'd prefer to leave it random. Nah, that's BS - I'd choose to have a boy then too. All of […]

QotD: Movie Theater Candy

Question: What's your favorite movie theater candy? My Answer: Anything I can sneak in. 😉 You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: School Subjects

Question: What was your best subject in school? My Answer: Applied math - i.e. physics, some parts of chemistry, etc. I also liked biology and straight math. I despised English and history. I did reasonably well in French, but most of my enjoyment in that class was because Carey sat in front of me. 😉 […]

QotD: Computer Today?

Question: Did you touch a computer today (Christmas Day)? My Answer: Not really. I touched my PowerBook, which was running a fireplace screen saver on my TV, but that doesn't really count. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Santa No More

Question: At what age did you stop believing in Santa Claus? My Answer: Between the ages of four and five. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Work Today

Question: Do you have work today? How long is your Christmas Break? My Answer: I work for myself, so the answer to both is "It depends on how I feel." 🙂 I plan to work on some side projects today, for the most part. Like the one mentioned in the previous QotD. You are encouraged […]

QotD: Domain Names

Question: What's the last domain you've registered? My Answer: billiardsdrills.com, and I'm still working on getting it ready. Sometime in early January it should be good to go. You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.

QotD: Billionaire’s Money

Question: From Scott Adams: Suppose you found a thousand dollars in cash that you knew had been lost by a billionaire. Now, because this is a hypothetical question, let’s assume that the billionaire would never be aware that he lost it, and there would be no way that anyone else would know if you kept […]

QotD: Disabled Menu Items

Question: I read today a case for allowing users to choose disabled menu items. Instead of the action occurring (say, "Paste" or "Screw Up Document"), a dialog would explain to you why the menu item was disabled in case you were really trying to get to it. For example, if you try to rotate a […]
