Well, it started with a new look for my blog. Then, I switched to Mozilla and made Mozilla, my Yahoo home page, and Windows all have a silvery look and feel (and an appropriate backdrop too of course). I guess silver’s the new black for me.
And to top it all off Ian and I are […]

I’m now a proud user of Mozilla Firefox THE competitor that will bring Micro$oft down (we hope!). It’s really a great, standards compliant browser. And leaner than IE!! My god..the download was only 4 MB and took under a minute to install. Who knows how bloated (and buggy) IE is these days. I was […]

Wow! Haven’t finished a story in quite a while. I broke one of my new rules: don’t start a new story til you finish the other one, for better or worse. The sci-fi thriller is still moving along at 50 pages, but the idea for this came to me one night in bed and was […]

Well, I’ve finally licensed out my blog content under a Creative Commons License. This allows others to use and alter my work, but I still retain ownership of my original work and copies have to be attributed to me. It’s a very cool concept, and more and more works are going this way. I think […]

Not much new to blog, just thought I’d keep the entries coming rather than have my blog become a ghost town ;-).
Went to Jeff & Jeremy’s last night and met their adorable cockapoo (mixed breed of cocker spaniel and poodle) Mary. It’s cool we finally met a gay couple right here in The Colony! Had […]

Great article over on NY Times (free registration required) about the secret justice system developed by conservatives after 9/11. It’s long (haven’t even finished it yet myself), but uncovers a very horrific act of this administration. Lines like this sent a chill down my back:
To the policy’s architects, the attacks on the World Trade Center […]

Had a great weekend. Friday night Ian and I took it easy and watched Van Helsing. Saturday we went over to Chris & James and made jack-o’lanterns. (Oh, and I picked up GURPS Basic Set Characters 4th edition finally).
I’ve created a moblog finally (doesn’t that just r0×0r the internets?) and posted a pic of my […]

Voted early today, be sure you get out there and vote as well!
Otherwise, not much new. Looking forward to the weekend. Had a good evening yesterday with Tim and Angela over at their house. Their back yard looks great with the patio they’ve put in and all the plants too numerous to mention (I’m […]

If I’ve blogged this URL before. I was doing some housecleaning in my work computer’s URL folder and found this. I’ve mentioned before to others about this article. It is a great read on North Korea and how seriously out of touch with reality it is. You think you’re reading a sci-fi novel about an […]

Last night ate at Mi Cocina in downtown Fort Worth (which is always so much more vibrant and alive than the ghost town that is downtown Dallas) and then headed over to the Gypsy Tea Room to see The Killers with Vic.
The opening band was (I think) Trouble Everywhere. Their set got better through […]
