PowerBookResQ
After trying several times to figure out what is wrong with our PowerBook and not getting it to work, I couldn’t stand it any longer…I had to know the worst. So today I’m shipping it off to a service called PowerBookResQ to have it diagnosed. They basically ship you a special box via [...]
Townboy
Keegan was talking with Michele about a girl in one of his classes at school. He said, “You know, she’s like a townboy.” Michele started laughing and told him that what he should have said was “tomboy.”
“Rock solid” Mac OS X
I couldn’t agree more with David Pogue’s description in his New York Times column of the “stealth benefit” of the new iMac G5, OS X, as “rock solid.” Mentioned in MacMinute. It really amazes me that more people aren’t clued into the fact that OS X, as Pogue says, is “100 percent free [...]
Long live Mozilla
OK, yes, I confess, I’m a Mac fanatic. I’m also a Mozilla lover. If at all possible, I refuse to use Internet Explorer on my WinXP PC at work. Instead, I use Mozilla Firefox, which gets my vote for the best web browser (or at least, one of the best) currently out [...]
Beyond the Sky
Here are the lyrics to a song written by one of my all time favorites, Fernando Ortega (from his CD, Home), that capture a longing that I feel today:
Beyond the Sky
One morning when time is done,Bright heavenWill be our refuge,The City of God, Most High
I long for that holy dayThis longing,Sometimes it captures my heart,And [...]
Titanic (a version with bunnies)
I find this version of the movie Titanic much better than the original, which I despise. So much so, that I have never been able to watch the whole thing.

New blog features
I just finished adding some features to this blog. One is the addition of online status indicators for the three IM accounts that I regularly use: AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, and MSN Messenger. If you see one or more of these icons show that I’m online, just click on the one for the [...]
I wish I could say I am all better
It’s been several weeks since I wrote my last posting. In that intervening time I have tried to cope with shingles. I wish I could say I am all better now, more than a month later. I’m not. I think I am slowly getting better but the pain is still present [...]
I’m in business as an Internet bookseller
A few weeks ago I decided to try my hand at selling books online via Amazon Marketplace. To my surprise and delight, one book sold right away and I quickly sold four more within the next several days. I even shipped one all the way to Hong Kong! Maybe I’m on to [...]
