I hope the Saints keep bringing hope to New Orleans
For the first time in about forever I actually watched Monday Night Football. How could I miss the Saints’s first game in the newborn Louisiana Superdome? The thrashing the Falcons received made it even better. Perhaps M-Dog can correct me … Continue reading
Mile high club
Ha — I had you for s econd there, didn’t I? I’m now in scenic [sic] Denver, CO for the in-residence portion of my management class. The flight was uneventful but it did take me a whike to get my … Continue reading
Perl without tears, the perils of revenge
A couple of days ago I needed to install html2latex on the server because it’s part of the documentation toolchain for PyPedal. Which meant a long, strange trip into Perl-land which required that I install packages from CPAN without root … Continue reading

iPod Correctors and Rockbox saved my iPod mini
Regular readers are aware that I dropped my iPod mini two days before I left for Brazil in August. Apple would do nothing for me because I was out of warranty, but a sympathetic Genius Bar staffer pointed me at … Continue reading
The final word on the dog breeding fiasco; Windows XP and Scientology
The dog thing. I’ve been completely stressing about people accusing me of being unethical, a copyright violator, and a liar. A list moderator took me to task for writing about something list-related outside of the list, which apparently falls under … Continue reading
A more civil discourse on dog breeding
Some people on the canine genetics list found my earlier rant through the Power of Google ™ and were unhappy with it. I was called a number of things, including unethical, unprofessional, and unscientific. Hey, rock the ad hominem when … Continue reading
