Avoid Top-Posting in Mail

This script will help me when/if I ever switch from Entourage to Mail.

I think Entourage is the only non-native app I still run semi-regularly. In my Dock, I have Stickies, SpamSieve, Entourage, Adium, Safari, Transmit, Terminal, BBEdit, iTunes, Cyndicate, and ecto. Yep… Entourage is the only one left.

Handicapped Parking Permit

I'm looking for a moderately high resolution image of a handicapped parking permit for a practical joke of sorts (nothing illegal, and the butt of the joke is not in any way handicapped people). Anyone seen one? A google images search is pretty useless.

Want to Design a Theme for New Feed Reader?

If anyone is interested in developing some themes, perhaps which can be built-in, for a new feed aggregator/reader/thingamajig, please contact me via email (see sidebar, and please don't use GMail). The advantage or perk of doing this is that, at the bottom of every article using your theme, you can put something like "theme design by" with a link to your blog, home page, etc.

New, Err, Old, Errr, New Coke Can

Coke Cans

The Coke can has been redesigned. I like the "new" old look, and agree with the comments here (also where the image comes from).

Saw Ratatouille

And you should too.

It's not so much a kid's movie, though, which is a nice (if subtle) change of pace. They even say "hell" in the movie.

Want to Mow the Lawn

We desperately, desperately need some water. I've not mowed my lawn (because I don't believe in wasting water) in weeks. Except for a few thin and almost invisible strands and a few shaded areas, the lawn is a good height. It's just dormant and slightly brown.

I Still Use Entourage

This discussion prompted this post…

I've yet to make the switch to Mail. I still use Entourage, and I still like it. I've got some good AppleScripts, it works well, I like labels, and it supports different soundsets.

The end.

P.S. The show of the same name is really good.

Need a Windows Developer

I'm looking for a Windows developer capable of porting Scorecard to Windows. I don't care what language is used (so long as it's not too far out there). There's more information here, but here are the highlights:

  • Should work somewhat like the Mac version. This is a port, not a grounds-up rewrite. The Mac (Cocoa) code will be available to the developer, as will an SVN repository.
  • The data file is a SQLite file and should be usable on either platform. There are plenty of SQLite database libraries for Windows.
  • We'll sell, market (The Sand Trap comes in handy here), and support the app. Developer gets 75% of raw profits (before any expenses or processing fees).

If you're interested, please contact me.

Happy Birthday, America

You know, "231 years old" really doesn't seem like squat when you think about it. When I went to France, the thing that most impressed me was how old things are.

Americans go to see Monticello and think "wow, that's old, it's from 1784" (or whenever). Then they go to Europe and they see things that existed before frickin' Jesus Christ existed. Kinda gives you a new perspective.

Anyway, happy birthday to the greatest country in the world. If only we didn't currently have the greatest idiot running it, we'd all be better off. 😛

The .biz Domain

Have you ever gotten a legitimate email from a .biz domain? Because I sure as heck haven't, and I'm seriously considering email blacklisting all .biz domains.

Whispering Woods Driving Range

WW LogoWhispering Woods has been a great place to play, but the general feeling is that the course opened just a bit too soon. Or, to put a better and perhaps more realistic spin on things, the course and the whole operation needs time to mature. The grass on the back nine is sparse in many spots and the course simply needs time to "grow in" a little more. The clubhouse will get built next year, and for now I don't mind having to use a double-wide trailer as a clubhouse. So be it.

AT&T to Acquire Cellular One

Woohoo!!!! Yippeee!!! It's true, it's true!

iPhones, here I come.

Stupid Burn Warning

BurnHow about telling me how much stuff I need to remove (is it 2.4 MB or 200.4 MB?) next time, stupid Finder?!?!

U.S. Women’s Open at Pine Needles

The U.S. Women's Open began today at an awesome course - Pine Needles in Southern Pines, North Carolina. It's literally just down the road from the famed Pinehurst, but I'd call Pine Needles a far better course for the average or skilled player who isn't quite PGA Tour level - it has a little more character and is a little more playable.

If you've got a daughter interested in golf or if you're just interested in seeing some good golf on a great course, tune in to the U.S. Women's Open on ESPN (Thu/Fri) or NBC (Sat/Sun).
