DLO Jam Jacket Mini Review
Friday, March 26th, 2004

I’m just reviewing all kinds of stuff these days!

We got one of these DLO Jam Jacket Mini cases for Jenee’s new iPod Mini. You can order them on Everything iPod if you decide you want one. They have a lot of other different kinds of cases as well, and they shipped out my order the […]

QotD: Flying
Friday, March 26th, 2004

Question: What’s the most unusual thing in which you’ve ever flown?

My Answer: I’ve flown in jets, a prop plane through the grand canyon, a helicopter, and one time I flew inside of a big round room with a huge fan in the floor. It was Indoor Skydiving in Gatlinburg, TN and was quite a bit […]

iPod Mini Mini-Review
Friday, March 26th, 2004

My wife has occasion to listen to an iPod more than I do (she drives a lot, and also works at a quiet little retail shop where she has plenty of time to listen to music), but I didn’t like sharing mine (10gb 3rd Generation) because I might need it sometime. So the only logical […]

Honda Element: The first 3,500 Miles
Wednesday, March 24th, 2004

We’ve put about 3,500 miles on our new Honda Element, and I thought I’d post my impressions of it so far.

Exterior
We chose the black one (as pictured above) because we thought it blended in with the gray body panels the best. The silver and orange/red ones look kind of “patchy” like they were pieced together […]

QotD: Comments
Monday, March 22nd, 2004

Question: What are your thoughts on comment registration, TypeKey, etc.?

My Answer: I’ll probably enable it on my blog… Not that many people post comments on my blog, and I get quite a bit of comment spam so it would be worth it to have people register just to stop the spam I get. Which is […]

ieCapture
Sunday, March 21st, 2004

If you are a Macintosh based web designer like me, and need to test your sites on the terrible mess that is IE/Windows, check out ieCapture. I just sold my old 866mhz Windows machine last week to a family that needed a computer, so I don’t have anything to test my sites on in Windows […]

QotD: Counterfeit
Thursday, March 18th, 2004

Question: Have you ever knowingly used counterfeit money?

My Answer: No, but one time on a train in Germany we met a guy that had a fake German bill. His hobby was identifying counterfeits or something. He handed me two identical bills, one a counterfeit and one a real one. I couldn’t tell the difference. He […]

QotD: HBO
Monday, March 15th, 2004

Question: Do you have HBO?

My Answer: No, we just get super basic cable. The broadcast stations and TBS, WGN, etc. We have Netflix though, so we have all the movies we can watch anyway.

QotD: Full-time OS
Sunday, March 14th, 2004

Question: When did you begin using what you now consider your full time OS?

My Answer: I started using OSX 10.3 (Panther) about 5 months ago when I got my eMac. And I just sold my Windows machine today, meaning I am now 100% Mac based. Hooray!

QotD: Products
Saturday, March 13th, 2004

Question: Have you ever sold anything you’ve created?

My Answer: Yes, lots of stuff. When I was very small, (I never remember my age in these types of stories) I made Granola with my mom, and my dad sold it to people at the hospital where he worked for $10 or $20 a bag. We even […]
