Apple is famous for breaking paradigms and strategizing changes to the social structure of the Universe. But with their newest pile of secrets, the iPad, Apple has blown the doors off even their own hubris and sent the blogosphere into conniptions of joy and despair with an almost Proustian display of modern existentialist computing. So […]
I’m posting this link in hopes it gets a video some hits/increased rankings for work. I don’t endorse it exactly, I just work here. I suppose you may like to look at it if you ever thought about wrapping your car or you want to advertise something locally. Wraps are very good for that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dOAQT0qQAk […]
Hey guys, what’s new these days? I’m just being my usual huggable self, living life chained to a mortgage and car payments. I don’t have much of a retirement plan, which is starting to weigh heavily on my mind especially since my beautiful wife will get to retire in a few years with a teacher’s […]
Because I was writing furiously for a month, I didn’t get to post here much. Which is okay, because it spurred me to finish NaNoWriMo. Yes! My book Revenant is “done” at 51,455 words. What’s more, it has spurred me to continue writing. So off we go to a new book. Then another, and another, […]
I hit 9,511 last night. I hit it like the FIST OF AN ANGRY GOD. Edit: I’m a-testin’ something which may be cool. [wave id=”googlewave.com!w+gIAyi8qBA”] Edit edit: It would be cooler if it worked. Ah well. Edit edit edit: Aaaand it works! You have to have a Wave account and be using a worthwhile browser, […]
Five days into NaNoWriMo and I’m over 8,000 words now. Feels good man. With some luck I’ll hit 9,500 tonight. With a LOT of luck I’ll hit 10,000, which puts me on par to “winning” NaNoWriMo (writing 50,000 words) on the 25th so I can spend Thanksgiving being thankful that I don’t have to write […]
I have a Google Wave account. :smug: Wait, wait, don’t come begging for invites! I didn’t get one of THOSE accounts; I have a latecomer developer account on the dev server, and we don’t get invites or the ability to play with the other reindeer on the “public” alpha server. Instead, we desperately search for […]
I’m involved in the National Novel Writing Month for the third year running. If you haven’t heard of it, it’s a sort of “destroy your brain forever” activity where otherwise perfectly sane people try to write an entire 50,000 word novel in 1 month, from November 1-30. I’ve “lost” the past two years, so here’s […]
(No relation to the new Hitchhiker’s Guide book, by the way, which I haven’t yet even had a chance to pick up. For that matter, no relation to my previous post. For that matter, the title is completely erroneous.) I was just looking at what this whole Windows Live thing installed, and while this bloggy […]
Hidey ho, good Interneighbors. I’m doing some bloggin’ on the sly using the new Windows Live Writer, don’t mind me, just hanging out, ho hum. So how about those politics today, huh? Man, it’s like you can’t swing a cat without hitting someone who hates the very concept of swinging cats. I’ve heard the following […]
