Apologies to All…
It has been an incredibly busy six months, and I haven’t posted a single item about us, the baby, or anything. The last few months of Jennie’s pregnancy were trying for her. She suffered from sciatica for a few weeks, which she managed to get through thanks to physical therapy. Luckily, nothing was wrong with…

Some Thoughts on the BCS
Now that it’s all over, here are my thoughts… To all you LSU fans out there: congratulations, and I hope you wait another 45 years for your next one. To all you USC fans out there: up yours. Your team couldn’t have hung with either Oklahoma or LSU, and for you to “share” the national…

A New Home for the Website
If any of you have been trying to post comments lately, I apologize for the problems. My web hosting company, Fidelity Hosting, has been completely unreachable the last few weeks, ever since they broke my connectivity to the database back end that drives this site. After trying for over two weeks to contact somebody, anybody,…

The case, and SCO’s continued assertions that black is white, up is down, and that software licenses can’t give users the right to copy, is starting…

Boy, Do Those Talking Heads Need Practice!
Saw this in a BBC article: A White House spokesman later dismissed Mr Gore’s statements, saying that the American people knew “the president’s commitment to the security of the United States and to winning the war on terrorism and our economic security”. So the White House admits it’s waging war on our economic security?

Distraction After Distraction
My apologies to everyone who has been waiting to hear news from me. I have been swamped with stuff ever since the last entry. As many of you know, I am now married to the wonderful and beautiful Jennifer Sara. We’ve been at it for over 6 weeks now (since June 14th), and while living…

A Web Proxy Hack for CVS
If you’re like me, you are behind a crazy-restrictive firewall, that only allows outbound traffic through a web proxy. Occasionally, I have need of non-release software, like the latest CVS source from the ant-contrib project. The stupid thing is, the latest CVS packages don’t include proxy support. After hours of searching, I finally found an…

Poor George Steinbrenner
Boo hoo. Poor old George. Interleague play isn’t going to let his Yankees pad their lead on the Red Sox this year, so it must be unfair. This man is the worst sport in the world, I swear. Who else complains about their schedule when they are in first place in their division and make…
