There was a time as a kid when going to a movie in the theater was an event.  As time went on, high school turned that into such a common experience that it lost the magic.  Less time, more netflix, and an abismal selection of quality movies has returned the theater to a noteworthy experience.  […]

I’ve started biking to work.  Its about a 20 mile round trip, and I must say it hurts.  I’m really excited, because it is almost certainly a fast track to getting in shape.  2 hours on a bike every day tends to have that effect on people.  That being said, it really is exhausting.  I […]

I used to get annoyed on April Fool’s Day. I’m pretty lighthearted and always up for a good prank, but the fact that the jokes all came on the same day and never caught me off guard was well, boring.

I was perusing the latest barrage of tips from Lifehacker today and I realized something.  Once or twice a day Lifehacker has some tidbit about Windows Vista, and I completely glaze over it.  I have distanced myself so far from Vista that I don’t even care about tips and news for the OS.  I can […]

I got the MacBook Pro back today. I feel so much more complete. It got a new logic board, but remains entirely intact from a functional standpoint. The hard drive still has all my glorious data. I backup, but some things just don’t make it through the backup/restore process, so its […]

The Macworld Keynote came and went.  Steve announced the coolest. thing. ever.  Or not.  A thin laptop with multitouch, Woo Hoo.  Its not gonna change my life.  Note:The iPhone might change my life, but I’m not gonna pay $399 to have my life changed and only get 8GB out of the deal.
There was something compelling […]
