Tivo Home Media Engine
Never got around to it, but I installed Tivo HME. Pretty nifty. Now I can view weather on the TiVo. I already had Java installed, so the setup took about 2 minutes to see it work on the Tivo. Very impressive. I then moved on to installing the Netflix RSS Reader. My wife hates going […]

Watch Serenity Now
Run, no haul ass, to your local movie theater and watch Serenity. And not just because it has an “A” rating on Yahoo after 11,000 reviews, or an 81% on RottenTomatoes, or the two thumbs up by Ebert and Roeper, or how much my wife and I loved it, do it because it is the […]

Writing for One Tree Hill
A good friend of mine writes for One Tree Hill on the WB. I don't know many writers, so it is a pleasure reading anything from her – even her emails. I get the same contentment reading a few paragraphs from Stacy as reading a software book by Joel Spolsky (even when I disagree with […]

Off to the PDC
Ok, not really. I live 5 miles away. But I am mentally off. Ok, not really. I just wanted to waste everyones time. Ok.

Movies and Sitings
For awhile I was writing about celebrity sitings around town, but it was getting stupid. Every week there was another one, and I just didn't care enough to write about it. But over the last week, I parked next to Donnie Darko heading into Ralphs for some late night shopping. It was odd because he […]

Outlook Auto-Complete Emails
In the “That’s it I can’t take it anymore department”, It really ticks me off when I start to type a name in my Outlook “To” field and it sticks in the wrong email address for the person EVEN THOUGH their correct one is stored in my Contacts. I land out emailing people at the […]
