The work webcam is back online full-time and I’m pretty happy with the positioning. I had it offline the other day while I was building a stand for it because all the angles I could find just sucked without it. It’s a pretty rickety stand, but it’s doing a fine job for the time being.…

At 51, I think it’s a little too late for Yanni to try to change his image from boring Greek pianist to ass-kickin’ Greek pianist.

As you can (hopefully) see, the work webcam is back online. I got my new machine at work today and it is sweet. There’s just something sexy about having two flat panels side-by-side. Now I just have to figure out where in the world I’m going to put the work webcam. Any suggestions?

I’m really pissed off at our government and surprised at how open-minded our president is being (although I suspect he’s not really being open-minded. I suspect that there are other, monetary or political forces at work here). You’ve probably all heard that Bush is backing the sale of shipping operations at six major U.S. seaports…

You’ve probably noticed that the work webcam has been offline since Tuesday morning. I got a promotion at work (I’m now our first official web designer/developer). Because of this, I had to switch to a new desk and my new computer has yet to arrive (although our IT says it’s being ordered today). So until…

Well, it’s finally happened. Something I wrote was linked to by A List Apart. Now I’m sort of embarrassed that I haven’t worked on this site in a while (there are some glaring errors that I just haven’t gotten around to fixing). If you’re a fellow web designer, I apologise for any… Ugliness you end…

In the world of web design, there are two words that are guaranteed to make every web designer/programmer roll their eyes and groan; the first is “workaround” and the second is “Mac/IE”. Workaround is usually followed by “for Internet Explorer” and until Microsoft pulls their heads out (of the sand, what did you think I…

Today is the Chinese new year! Kung hei fat choi!

For the first time ever, the Seattle Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl. I actually had the NFC championship game on and was, more or less, watching it. For once, I’ll be watching the Super Bowl for more than just the commercials. It’s already nuts in Seattle, and I’m sure that Spokane will also…

Today I received this pathetic looking box. WTF? How hard is it to deliver a box without totally destroying it? It really makes me wonder how frequently things like this happen. And what about the postal employee at fault? Does she just look at the crushed box, shrug her shoulders, and toss it in the…
