Ok, this post is a little of me bragging, which I’m a little worried about doing. But, I have a greater point, so you’ll have to bear with the bragging. I got a phone call today from someone at MadCap software Now that that’s out of the way, I can get on with the point. […]
Since someone in this household is playing the crap out of this game right now, I thought this might be interesting reading. The New York Times has a very interesting piece on the invented language of Tho Fan for Jade Empire. The 2,500-word language was created in four months for about $2,000 by University of […]

Cool things starting to happen at Flickr now that they have Yahoo! money to burn. They’ve doubled the free account upload amount and doubled the number of photos in the stream. Pro accounts got an extension on their payments (basically doubling their contract lives), and new Pro accounts get more uploads (2 gigs) at half […]

Sounds like he won’t be around long, as he’s 78. The prophecy draws nearer! Many laugh at St. Malachy’s Prophecy (with good reason), but Ratzinger took the name Benedict, a nod […]
I don’t know how I feel about this, but Adobe and Macromedia announced that Adobe was buying Macromedia for around 3.4 billion.

Check out the rest of the thread as it descends into flamewar; it’s usually pretty entertaining to watch one on Fark.
I took the What Age Will You Die quiz after seeing it on J-Walk. The first time I did it, I got this result. You Will Die at Age 67 67 You’re pretty average when it comes to how you live… And how you’ll die as well. I thought, how can I improve that a […]
David, your site doesn’t have a comments link (that I could find) so I’m posting it here. (Re: this post) I actually agree with many of your points. (I’m not sure about your vested interest, so I’ll defer to Alex.) I think that religion in this country has become watered-down, over-marketed, soulless and boring. The […]
We’re back and I’ve posted some photos of Grand Haven. We walked the pier on Saturday night. The weather was perfect, the people were out, the boats were out–it really make me homesick. Anyway, photos this-a-way.
