It was bound to happen before very long, I suppose. I found a supremely addictive space trading game for my Palm. If you want to lose several hours of your life and you own a Palm Pilot, check out Space Trader.
Think “Trade Wars” for the Palm OS, just without the multi-player aspect and without having to wait a whole day to get another few turns.
Once again A List Apart provides well-written material cogent to the online writer. Dennis A. Mahoney’s “Write A Better Weblog” article should be required reading for anyone who thinks that the fine art of blogging can be reduced to some software and a hosting account.
I’m reading it right now, in fact. I’m probably going to read it again every day or so until the concept is burned into my brain that it’s all about the writing, stupid! Or perhaps, it’s about not writing stupid. Something like that.
In a whirlwind frenzy (ooo, Diablo II reference!) of computer building, I assembled Amy and Michael’s new superbox the night before last and started installing Windows last night.
Only to find that the Epox motherboard we bought has a CMOS problem that makes it prone to not starting up after the machine has been run for an hour. Oh, great.
So today, I suspect, they’re going to take the motherboard back to Fry’s and see about getting another one. Once that’s accomplished I’ll see about building them a real live working computer. Wouldn’t that be nice?
Thanks to code from this page, every time I add or update an entry to my site Weblogs.com is notified automagically.
It’s just another small way to bring in more visitors to the site. And you know me; I’ll do anything I can to show off how damned clever I am. Or hadn’t you noticed that yet?
Mind you, I couldn’t show off my cleverness if it weren’t for the efforts of the truly bright folks who create the software I manipulate. Never let it be said that I’m ungrateful. I know exactly where I stand in the Great Scheme Of Things.
Via the LaDonnaBlog I stumbled across a fun comic strip that I’ll probably read thoroughly in one sitting and rarely visit again. That, or I’ll have the website email me the strip daily. Yeah. Good idea.
And to work in the birthday angle, check out the edition of Helen, Sweetheart Of The Internet for my birthday. There’s even an anime angle, baby! Does it get any better?
Verily I say unto you, it does not.
From the blog not known as Machete but instead called Something New Every Day, I have both the link to that absurd kitten-masturbation photo and now a really weird follow-up image.
If you understand what’s going on here, you’re a smarter person than I am. Maybe. Or maybe you’re just weird. Or both.
