Long Gone.

Long ago, I had hoped that Unsanity’s application (Haxie) Shape Shifter, would bring a level of awesome to Mac OS X that Kaleidoscope brought to Mac OS 9. I fondly remember the massive number of themes that were available under Mac OS 9. However, several years on, I realize that I need to let go. ... Read More »

The Colonel’s Son.

Sometimes google image search can pull up gold. In a bit of searching, I came across a scan of my father’s 1965 Naval Academy yearbook photo. He was probably somewhere around 23 when this picture was taken.    He died in may of 1999. I was working at the video game store and was going ... Read More »

Saturday recap.

So I’m pleased with all I got done today. I slept in, and was at first unsure of how to tackle the day. However, I committed hygiene, and decided to roll to Lake Oswego, to see if someone was at the shop by chance, and I could retrieve my hard drive. Unfortunately, no luck there. ... Read More »
