The story of a brave, determined, vivacious soul — who just happened to also be my great aunt (my Grandfather’s sister)…

It’s become clear that without titling and commenting my photographs, individually (something which I simply don’t have the time to do — It’s amazing I do as much as I do on this site as it is…, that a lot of the wider, Internet public, was not able to view them… Why? Well, […]

Oh, the perks of having to take those business trips…

Good friends, a boat, some fishing tackle, and a day on the Great Lakes…

Wikipedia. It’s everything you ever wanted to know; and now you don’t need to be afraid to ask.

So, I go up to the in-laws place for Christmas, having a good time — someone asked me about my photos and wanted to see some. I told them I had a bunch out on this web site. So, I go over the computer, sit down, type in my domain, hit enter and, Wow! […]

It’s been some time since I heard any decent music… you know, music other than this processed, copied crap that gets cranked out for the baggy-pants wearing, juvenile delinquent types. (Probably gonna piss a few peeps off with that one. Oh, well… I enjoy the heat.) Fortunately however, the past few weeks of Nettin’ have […]

What are photomosaics?

Only one hour left and the Kid officially becomes thirty-six. Nutty. . . Feels like I was just a kid a few years ago. If years start going by any quicker though, at seventy they’ll seem like days! Whoooa, boy. And, does this mean I have to grow up now?

A work associate and myself have started a small shareware venture — W² Software. . . Well, not really a venture, but a webpage with some software we created and a donate button. (Get it, donate button. . . meaning, send us cash! ) The software was mainly born out of our needs […]

Okay, it’s official. I was diagnosed with ‘Site Deficit Disorder’. The symptoms are apparent; just look at the number of postings that are present on this site since I created it. Maybe it’s because I think blogs are a bit ‘gay’. I don’t know. Either way, I’m going to try […]

Took a trip with Meg this last weekend — up to Charleston. My Mom had hooked us up with a nice weekend in Charleston as a Christmas gift last year. Went and saw ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ at the local IMAX. Nice! I wish that all features films were filmed […]

Okay, for those of you in the video world, there is an open source application that, if found, will become the backbone of all your video processing. That app is, AviSynth. I found this app many years ago and shelved it. It did what I needed back then — putting frame numbers […]

The basic gist is, people write in with these questions — questions ranging from the semi normal to the absolute bizarre. Then, Cecil Adams, the world’s most intelligent human […]

I found a great plug-in today — MyNetFlix; it doesn’t really do much, but what it does do is pretty cool. Plus, it’ll work well in the ‘Movies’ page I am working on for my blog. It is a plug-in capable of listing your current queue at NetFlix. After downloading it, I […]

Okay, whoever you may be. . . I guess I never really explained my intentions for the “gallery.” I went with this involved, comprehensive, feature rich gallery to try and have all you wonderful people give me some feedback on the shots that I posted up there. Yeah, I want you to […]

Well, a day after I posted the ‘Popular Science’ item below, I received a message from them. The subject was ‘Popular Science - Seeking Permission. At first I thought that I was going to get some heat (the usual for me) for posting an old magazine cover of theirs, but to my surprise, […]

A few months ago I finally caught Penn and Teller’s new show — well, really not that new — on Showtime, Bullshit. And, let me tell you, this has got to be one of the best shows on the air right now. The shows basic premise is to attempt to bebunk common […]

I should really get a job at Popular Science. I push this magazine on people as if it were the Bible or something. My dad had a subscription to this magazine since the early 70’s; I can remember it since I was a wee little shortie. I would always grab it from […]

Ever since Google started to offer users a GMail e-mail account, which includes storage space of 2000 megabytes, you have had plenty of storage space but not a lot to fill it up with. With GMail Drive you can easily copy files to your GMail account and retrieve them again. So, don’t let […]

You ever want to see what it was like to see the earth from space. . . I mean, actually space itself?! No? Well try it anyway. It’s pretty sweet. Google bought this company with plans to tie it into their ever growing collection of all the world’s garbage. […]

Um, was that a sound in the engine?

Well, welcome to the new site. It’s amazing — as Igor, my Russian co-worker would say. And, it actually is amazaing; I’ve learned more about HTML, PHP, XHTML, CSS, etc. in the past four days than I learned over the past 4 years! And, let me tell ya — this stuff is […]

This is a sample post to see how the system is updated. This thing is pretty cool. I can add to the blog from any browser from any connection. So, no painful HTML editing to do to add content to the site; it’s easily added just by using the admin interface on […]
