OK, which is worse? The crappy road side memorials that crop up along the side of the road, and then proceed to rot while we all watch, or the dirt mall vinyl memorial stickers to decorate the back window of your car?
Both of them seem to be a form of passive memorial of a person [...]
Well, it’s over.
The last few months have been a blur of activity, as each time we successfully completed an event in our lives, it lead it immediate planning and stress for the next event. Between Addison Oaks Race, Interbike, Massive Fallout, Chapter Meeting and Amsterdam, the last two months have been a repeating pattern of [...]
I’ve been using Chrom at work since it came out a few weeks ago (not using it at home because there isn’t an official Mac version yet) While I’m pretty happy with the overall features and feel of Chrome, it’s alpha software quirks are bad enough that I’ve went mostly back to FF3 for now.

I think this has something to do with the fact that I get two messages a [...]
A year or so ago, I purchases an anti-DRM shirt on the interweb. It was amazing to me how many people had no idea what DRM was, and I was often asked what the shirt meant (giving me a chance to give my little soap box speech on DRM)
But, people are starting to get a [...]
So, on a regular basis, I notice that some of our dishes seem to be disappearing. Since one of my sons jobs is to wash the dishes, this is more noticeable, since he generally tried to avoid doing the dishes in any way possible. When I’ve asked him about dishes hiding in his bedroom, he [...]
