Spec 1 (of 3) done. Hopefully the other two will be quicker. #
“…double major in mathematics and violin performance…”? Celebrity Geek Swoon! Any guesses who? #
Two of the most dangerous places in nature… between a mother bear and her cub OR between me and my coffee.

Call me an anachronism, but I think I prefer the old XP search over Desktop 4. Uninstalling in 3, 2, 1… #
Edit about yesterday’s 4e session. PEOPLE always trump SYSTEM and I met some solid folks in that regard. #

World’s… longest… reboot… #
Cyberduck will never forgive me, but I’m trying 4e. So far, my impression as “MMO with dice” is holding solid. #
Maybe I’ve been spoiled by the Clover Machine, but this Bigfoot Java is pretty mediocre. #

Groan, non-stop Elvis in cafe. Look, he had some hits, some stand the test of time, but for pete’s sake it does NOT warrant a 4 cd marathon. #
Watched The Counterfeiters. Really need to [...]

While video effects isn’t exactly my job description, I’ve always been fascinated by post-production effects. In my line, video work is usually limited to cutting, cropping, merging and re-encoding video content for the web (commercials, casting reels, screencasts, etc). Graphic effects; to green screen and motion tracking and 3-D work were usually applied upstream from [...]

The first step towards “Burbclaves” (apologies to Neal Stephenson)? http://tinyurl.com/d8tg3y #
Finished “Waltz With Bashir”. You’ll probably l like it and hate it; exactly which during various moments is up to your personal sympathies. #
