WTF? First it was ISO. Now it’s “GO girl!” Introducing the one magazine that celebrates women over 40. Get a full year free! So, are the market droids assuming that I am a woman over 40, or that I am attracted to women over 40? I hadn’t really thought about age limits, but I don’t […]
Comments I made last week prompted some of you to accuse me of being cold-hearted. I’m not. Rip my heart from my chest and you will find that it is actually quite warm. Actually, please just accept my word for it and leave my heart alone; I really do enjoy my life, high blood pressure, […]
Sorry, no posts for yesterday. I hurt my lower back earlier this week and have been a bit cranky. Now I just can’t move my head to the left and right. It’s great being in incredibly poor shape. If I were an egg, I’d be in great shape, actually. So, I hurt and have become […]
2004 ended with a terrible, horrible, tragic disaster (as opposed to the perky, chirpy, happy type?), the news of which shook the world. Fear, anger, sadness. All words, some of which may have described people’s feelings. Terrible things which affected us all. Yep, Anna Nicole Smith isn’t getting a dime. Thanks Anna, for reminding us […]
I love book clubs. For $1 a book, you can join clubs with interests ranging from art to science fiction, to computer science. Currently, I am a member of QPB (Quality Paperback Books). Once a month or so, QPB sends me an over-sized envelope filled with a catalog and various fliers, all advertising great books […]

It is year-end, the time one traditionally turns to making resolutions that fail by week’s-end and drinking oneself into a stupor so that the falling of the New Year’s ball coincides with the rising of the last meal of the old year. I do not want to follow tradition, however. I want to blaze new […]
Hello. You don’t know me, but you probably know of me. I am a Linux user. I’ve read “Running Linux” “Linux Network Administrator’s Guide”, subscribe to Linux Journal and have at one point or another tried almost every flavor of Linux out there. I think my first distribution was Caldera OpenLinux 1.0, back in the […]
Cricket-cricket-cricket! The sound of summer fills the house: cricket-cricket-cricket! The lights go out and the cricketing starts. I like the sound; my wife curses the lizards for their poor hunting skills and screams for silence. Related Images:
I woke up with a rush this morning. No, I wasn’t high- I was dreaming that Rush Limbaugh ate our Christmas tree. I really need to avoid spicy foods just before bedtime. So, what better topic this morning than a little Rush? As I wrote a few weeks back before trashing sweet li’l Condi Rice, […]
