On Electricity

Saturday, March 4th, 2006

I forgot to switch my power over to my name. That means it went off today, so I called them and they are going to turn it on on Monday. The lady was a little peturbed that I didn't want to get cable service... even more so when she heard ...

Ideas

Sunday, November 27th, 2005

Two ideas came to me yesterday, and they seemed really good to me yesterday. See what you think. 1. Ok, I'm watching Sopranos with Thomas and Kim. We are almost done with the fourth season, so maybe this won't work because of what has happened in subsequent episodes. I think they ...

Oil Change

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

I changed my oil today. Thomas and Robert (My bro and his father-in-law) helped me out. I went under the car and drained the oil and changed the oil filter. It was kinda fun.

Logos and Technology

(Easy to pick the Categories for this one) One thing I remember from my time at SJC is that writing down what you have to say has a way of making you think differently. I've had all sorts of thoughts that disapeared when I tried to write them down and defend ...

Analytics

Google just released a free page statistics tracker. Pretty cool. I'm using it for my site, because the other ones I've used weren't free, or the free version was limited.

My iPod is an Insomniac

Tuesday, November 15th, 2005

I couldn't find any help on Google. When I hold down the play/pause button, nothing happens, and when I select "sleep" from the main menu, all it does is stop the music. I've had this problem before, and updating the firmware. For some reason the update stopped working... So... if anyone ...

In other news…

Google is "unwiring" its home town. T-mobile and other crappy "for pay" wireless networks, your doom is nigh

I gotta get me one of those:

Dog Powered Scooter... I want one of these and two golden retrievers, or similarly sized dogs... Then I figure I'll cross the United states on it and get on the news or something... **Johanna offered me the use of her dogs, so now I have to do it.**

Yeah, that makes sense…

ABC and DirectTV are making a deal that will let people download commercial free TV shows shortly after they are aired to their DirectTV PVR for $.99. This is a strange idea... I just bought a Personal Video Recorder... I think I will not record my show, because I can ...

Oof…

Saturday, October 29th, 2005

So I'm using my Mac today to upload pictures to flickr. It is almost painful how much better this little computer is than my PC laptop. There is something wrong with the internal HD/ HD connection though, so I can only use this when I boot from my external HD. ...

Google hates scrolling…

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

... and I don't know why. In Picassa and Google Talk, Google has 2 interfaces that would both benefit from a scroll bar. They don't have it at all in Google Talk (probably to force you to use their search feature, with more than a few contacts, the application becomes ...

Smilies done right…

Thursday, September 8th, 2005

I am using Google Talk nowdays since my mac is down (down to Chinatown) and I have to use the CSP (PC)Laptop they issued me. Thank you Google for simply taking ":-)" and turning it blue... I'd rather it just stay the same, but blue is alright... much better than ...

Word

Monday, September 5th, 2005

MS Word is one of the most infuriating programs on the face of the planet. I've said it before, but this auto-crap has got to go.
