Very weird email problem today. I have this repeating email error message that I can’t delete. Or to be more precise, I can select it and throw it in the trash and even delete it from the trash but it automatically repopulates in my In Box. I deleted the offending email off the POP-Server but [...]

Camera Preview-Review
Left to right: Nikon Coolpix 4500, Canon PowerShot SD800IS, Sanyo Xacti HD2 I got a new camera and this time it’s a video camera that can also take photos, as opposed to a camera that can sometimes shoot video. As you can see from the photo above my new camera (on the far right) is [...]
Welcome to the suck
You know your life is going to suck for the next few hours when you insert your 4GB CF memory card into a reader and this shows up on the screen. Clicking on the card proceeded to freeze the laptop, subsequent attempts at mounting the card normally via USB reader (two different readers) and a [...]
Bum Rush The Charts
Speaking of iTunes, Thursday on March 22nd podcasters and bloggers are trying to see if our collective effort can push a single iTunes song to #1 on Apple’s charts.

A toast to Travis’ last day at work for the paper at the Mixx Bistro. Our toast was with a shot of some kind of Patrón XO Café coffee flavored tequila and some kind of rapsberry creme liqueur floated on top. Tastes like melted Häagen-Dazs coffee ice cream. See a close-up below. Yummy but still [...]

One of the disappointments is that it doesn’t include iChat on the phone. I assume this is so Cingular, [...]
Cheap Trick Cafe
The morning after the show who do we find getting some coffee but Rick Nielsen along with his lovely wife, not pictured. That’s Glennon and myself hanging with Rick. Very cool cat, wacky, witty, quick and self-professed Macintosh geek. He loves his two 17″ Powerbooks and other Mac gear, of course of ton of that [...]
What’s up with those previews?
Went to see Apocalypto tonight. Pretty savage scenes in the movie but entertaining. If you don’t like to read subtitles you won’t like this movie, it’s all in Maya so you’ll have to read. Or you can wait for the DVD to come out and probably watch natives running through the jungle with proper British [...]
