BusyCal 2.0 is out. It's a $29.99 UPGRADE.

Yeah.

A year or two or three ago, I used (and enjoyed) BusySync and BusyCal. It synchronized my calendar with my wife's, and worked quite nicely where iCal came up short.

But with iCloud, Calendar in Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) works well enough. About the only thing that it doesn't do that I used BusyCal to do is let me determine how long to snooze something when it came up.

Goodbye BusyCal. FWIW, my own personal threshold for this one was about $9.99. $29.99 (times two - my wife and I have separate licenses, of course) just ain't gonna cut it, let alone the $49.99 it will cost after December.

A Sporting Life has named The Sand Trap one of the five best golf blogs on the Intertubes.

We agree! Thanks to A Sporting Life for the recognition. We appreciate it!

Gary Carter is said to have invented the phrase "F-Bomb."

The funny thing is I remember the game he's talking about. I was (and still am) a Pirates fan.

I'd heard this story, and knew it to be true, but I didn't know until today that there was a video about it:

You can buy your own disc with a dude's ashes (the "father" of disc golf) right here. $200 gets you a driver and a putter.

He said people who were right a lot of the time were people who often changed their minds. He doesn’t think consistency of thought is a particularly positive trait. It’s perfectly healthy — encouraged, even — to have an idea tomorrow that contradicted your idea today.

Good advice from the Beez. Inability to change your mind is just stubbornness, and it should not be confused with "drive" or "determination."

I'm looking forward to Skyfall. November 9. I've made a reminder in my calendar. 🙂

I've been saying this for years. Here are some stats to back that up.

Ouch.

From CNN.

The GoPro3 was announced recently.

I might like to get one. They're tiny and shoot great video. The Black Edition looks sweet and includes the WiFi remote.

And get this: the specs say it can shoot 240 FPS video in 848 x 480? That's a much higher resolution than the 448 x 336 resolution we get out of our Casio cameras.

Hmmmm…

Found somewhere on the Internet:

Pinterest is porn for women. They (male scientists) finally figured out how to get women to use the Internet for something other than shopping, and it is Pinterest. It's shopping without buying. Pretty brilliant.

The problem with disc golf is that there are stereotypes that, like most stereotypes, are grounded in reality.
