Where Are The Wise Men?

The latest NeoOffice is now in public Alpha.  The nice thing about this release is that it support Intel-based Macs, so that is a good thing. This isn’t a full-fledged review, it’s more of a “I needed to write a quick letter, so I used it” type of thing.  The startup is slow, but after that [...]

I tend search out my geocaches when I get a chance and keep them in a huge GPX file. When I want to get some caches in an area, etc., I use GPSBabel to query that GPX file. Groundspeak keeps tons of useful data and metadata in it’s GPX extensions that I like [...]

Yeah, we updated the picture gallery again. This has basically everything that was left on the memory card — pictures taken just after our Texas trip to the geocaching adventure that Leah and I took last Saturday. There are also some good pictures from my parent’s farm and from Independence Day.

Jeremy told me that my Next Page/Previous Page wasn’t working. Instead of fixing the theme, I went back to WordPress Classic theme. I thought it would magically fix the PHP sessions errors on the bottom, but alas it didn’t. But the navigation is fixed.

Blaine and I have been talking this week and then he tells me he put me on the schedule. Yes, I am doing a talk for the Omaha Dynamic Language Group on September 5. The topic is “Python and XML” My focus will not be on a intro to Python, but [...]

So, my brother calls me last night. “What’s the link to your picture gallery? We would like some copies of some of the pictures when you were down here in April.”

“Huh, we haven’t put them up yet. But give me an hour or so.”

So thank my brother for kicking us in the butt. [...]

I get a blog and have it for a long time. Then my brother-in-law and his wife start one, to document this recovery. My wife gets inspired and starts one. Then two of my sisters-in-law both decide to start blogging. (Yes, I know that I’m such a trend-setter)

And, independent of all of this, [...]

I was at my parent’s this past holiday weekend. When I go, I’ve been looking for a folder that I keep wanting to go through again. I started putting stuff in it when I was 10 or 11. Finally, not long before I left, I finally dug to the bottom of a [...]
