I was watching TV last night, and I was bothered with the network’s plug for their 11PM news. It started off the normal way, promoting the lead story. That is fine. But then the absolutely annoying weatherman gets on and says something like, “We’ve had rain all day

I’ve written before about how there are some phrases that bother me. I need to add one more because it was brought to another level today. We all get the call at some time. It starts, “Hey, did someone call me from this number?”. To which my response is
Some of you may have noticed the new feature in the sidebar that points to my photoblog. ( A photoblog is a blog that is regularly updated with photos.) I recently got my first DSLR camera and I really like it. The photoblog will be some of the pictures that I
If ever you have wanted to buy the domain of YOUR name (example: jamestaylor.com), now would be a good time. Yahoo is selling domain names for just $2.99 per year. That is really cheap. You can search available domain names here. Note: You don’t have to use

This morning I got downtown a little after six. The sun was just peaking over the east mountains and casting long shadows across the city. I stopped by Walgreen’s to grab some orange juice and say hi to Ellie, my usual early morning cashier. All the tourists were recovering
Thank you to those of you who have been writing comments. I hadn’t seen any come through for a while so I looked in the list of comments being moderated and found about 40 in there. I saved the ones that I could and then turned off the comment
When I was in high school, my two favorite styles of music were Country and Hip-Hop/Rap. I liked most of the music that came thru in those genres. However, both have gone down in quality. My two complaints: Country music has become a contest of cliches. This makes for
It’s been a while since the dashboard contest started and ended, and this is what I have concluded. 1) I’m not as artisitic as I thought. 2) There are alot of really cool widgets out there that I have never seen. I did make one poster that I
One of the best parts about owning a Mac computer is the amazing choice of freeware that is available. (Freeware is free software.) These are usually from developers that write an application, and then just share it with the rest of the Mac community. But sometimes it is also big
Yesterday my grandpa asked me if I could set him up to do some online banking transfers. After working with it for a while, I was not able to do it. However, it was not due to anything on our side. The bank had made some mistakes in the last
Thank you to all that helped by sending in screenshots. There was really good support. We ended up with 1160 individual screenshots. Wow. I thought that I had a pretty good idea of the widgets available to Tiger users, but there were alot that I had never seen. The most
I have been requesting help from the online Mac community, and most have been coming here for further clarification. I thought that I would write a quick post for those coming here on account of the competition: For those who are using Macs running Tiger, I am looking to collect
I just didn’t like the idea of a ear wax post being my most recent post, so I thought that I would add a couple more musical gems that I have been listening to lately. I like these songs because they are modern acoustic guitar music, but have both
