No laptop is complete without accessories. I knew going in that my existing laptop bag would not accommodate this big hummer of a laptop. I also just determined that the one I think I want is at the upper end of the laptop bag price range.
I bought the 17-inch screen, because the voyager’s [...]

The first post here was made on 10/30/2005. I’d promised myself I’d post something daily for the first 90 days. I missed 1/27; I had absolutely nothing to say. Maybe I had nothing to say on a lotta’ other days in there too, but I hit Publish in spite of it.
Whether or [...]

Paid two bills, one software crash, two payees that used to be paid electronically now get checks. One of SWMBOs lightly-used credit cards hadn’t been reconciled since Hector was a pup, according to this horseshit software.
I’ve said it here before, and I’ll say it again; this pathetic excuse for a financial management system will be [...]

Actually, final vowel droppage and all, I love the name transistr for the podcatcher soon to be known as “the podcatcher formerly known as iPodderX”. Sheesh, look at the current iPX icon. I’m trying hard not to cop a sour grapes attitude here, but I never had a transistor radio quite as cool as [...]

The Year of the Dog, if a quick Google search, and the Google logo du’jour are any indication.
I’ve had years that were dogs on any calendar you can name; here’s hoping this isn’t one of them.

Maybe this characterizes all my posts; I don’t know. I’ve been wrangling in-post graphics placement from day one, and have noticed that the graphics line up better, or at least the way I intended, when such posts aren’t at the top of the page. I’ve defined two classes in my CSS, alignleft, and [...]

Happy Kansas Day. This post’s title is the Kansas motto; translated, it means To the stars through difficulties. On this day in 1861, Kansas was admitted to the Union.
I’ve lived in 5 states, and have no idea when any of the other 4 were admitted to the Union. I guess that’s because of [...]
