Hey Josh — holy deja vu Batman, I just got one of these RAZR V3 phones too! They are super-sweet. I already put a picture of my daughter in the wallpaper and made it so when my wife calls me, it plays the “Ironside” music that was in Kill Bill …
Prepping for the odyssey.
Tomorrow at oh-dark-thirty we’re getting on the road with the kids to head to Nashville — me for the Red Hat Summit and the rest of the family for fun and frolicking, including visiting relatives. It was a nice birthday gift to be able to give my wife, and I …
Giving up the high ground.
The typically erudite and well-informed Captain’s Quarters has the latest on what looks to be a terrible atrocity in Haditha. That numerous Pentagon sources are leaking the story could be a terrible indication of what is to come. The backlash could be reminiscent of those from My Lai.
Heavenly.
Last night Eleya and I stayed up rather late last night to watch something I’d been looking forward to for some time — Ridley Scott’s new 194-minute cut of Kingdom of Heaven. It comes in a monstrous four-disc set that includes the movie on two discs, and supplements on the …
The gift that keeps on giving.
So you would like to shoot some support to Fedora, but you don’t know how to do it? Did you know you can purchase (for peanuts, no less) a full DVD distribution of the latest and greatest Fedora Core 5 release? And here’s the kicker — when you purchase this …
Amerika, Pt. 37.
This from Massachusetts, left-leaning stronghold of the USA? What happened to freedom of expression, to lawful and peaceful protest? I know I’m late to this particular piece of news, that’s nothing new. I’m kind of like that “inside Hollywood” reporter from The Onion in that way. But this really got …
Toothless people.
Today I had the next in a seemingly endless series of dental appointments guiding me through the wonderful world of “root canal therapy,” as it is called these days, which you have to admit sounds much better than “sucking the bloody nerve pulp out of your rotten, decayed molar, squirting …
Andy’s is dandy.
After getting in a little before 3:00 a.m., I slept like a log. Eleya took the kids to the playground while I was passed out this morning, so with the total silence and all, I ended up sleeping until the unconscionable hour of 11:00. It strikes me as interesting that …
Road dog bites back.
Tomorrow night, hitting the road again for another kick-ass show at Andy’s on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Unfortunately, our brilliant cellist Okorie will be down for the count since the chicken pox has made an unexpected visit at his house. Could be worse; at least there’s no buboes involved. It does …
Easy come, easy go.
Today, thanks to the superb punctuality and workmanship of DMR Handyman Service, we have a brand new set of vinyl front-porch railing, to replace the crummy, unsealed wood junk that the builders used when they constructed our house. Ron, the founder and main go-to guy for DMR, did a great …
