Resumin’ Resumin’

April 27, 2008 – 6:17 pm

A new tab now adorns the top of the tbbs-land website: Resume. In this day and age, one must be perpetually for hire.
So it’s fitting to post one’s own resume on one’s own blog.
I’m one decent and eager geek. If you know/are someone looking for a good hand, I’m ready to [...]

Tweeted my Last

April 25, 2008 – 10:16 pm

Just when the Twitter/blog balance was beginning to, well, balance, the Twitter looks to be morphing into a spam-filled cesspit. I’ll miss the handful of cool folks I follow, and who follow me back.
However, when you get followed by folk who follow 50,000 others, and who themselves have but 6 followers, something smells.
I’m [...]

eee Bloggin’

April 21, 2008 – 9:38 pm

The last few posts were made from my eeePC, using ScribeFire. The eee’s tiny screen, combined with my poor eyes, makes it difficult to check spelling and punctuation with much efficacy. So, don’t attribute any grammar, punctuation, or spelling errors in any of the foregoing to any lack of dedication on the part of [...]

The Power of a Kansas Handshake

April 21, 2008 – 9:27 pm

I haven’t blogged anything about this, but, for four years now, my little bride and I have been the proud owners1 of 40 acres of Kansas farmland in Jeffferson County KS. We found the realtor online, and made a trip back there in search of housing/building lots for our emeritus years. We only wanted [...]

Bundy FunDays are Over

April 21, 2008 – 8:42 pm

A little late with this, but my little bride and I enjoyed our week of stay-at-home housework so much that we have proclaimed the week that includes April 15th to be the official Bundy FunDays, and plan to make it an annual event.

CREATEsouth Readin’ and Watchin’

April 21, 2008 – 8:26 pm

Thanks to all the Create South attendees for the Flickr streams, blog posts, and tweets about the conference. Though I had the desire, inclination, and wherewithal to attend, I lacked the open schedule time to complete the deed. I’ve read and watched everything about the event that I can find.
From what I’ve read [...]

Attention, Target Shoppers

April 20, 2008 – 3:20 pm

This is not England. Maybe some of you Northern Virginia snooty folk think that England is a better place to live. If so, leave. Go. Today. Pip, pip, cheerio to y’all. I witnessed none of you driving on the left side of the road today.
Why is it, then, that when [...]

Standing up the tinman

April 17, 2008 – 10:19 pm

The MacMini, the tinman, took the place of our production iMac here at tbbs world HQ an hour or so ago. In tin’s first official act, he transmitted the AmEx payment.
A fitting shakedown for a new machine. Whisper quiet. The overpriced Apple monitor is great, with its firewire/USB hub all built in. I didn’t [...]

Bundy FunDay MonDay

April 14, 2008 – 7:53 pm

My little bride and I continue to have the vacation of our dreams. Today, the storage under the stairs got tweaked up from our last little foray. The trash bags are on the curb. What’s left is shelved, organized, and cataloged. Far too much junque remains, but we can at least find it. [...]
