Barnes and Noble has always been my preference when it comes to big book stores, their organization scheme was the first that I knew and has always seemed “right” to me. But a dark, dark shadow has loomed over Barnes and Noble’s welcoming organizational strategy, the dark shadow that is a lack of plugs. They […]
It has been four days since I got back to San Jose, only four days, and already I’m about to implode. In these ninety-six hours, I have accessed the internet twice outside of a coffee shop, once at Chris Whipple’s place (an apartment prospect) and once at an old office I once worked at in […]
A friend, Craig brought up an interesting point in relation to my previous post, “Andy, Motherfucker”, that in reality one would rather be a “bad motherfucker” than simply a “motherfucker,” so it may be in my best interests to be known as “andy, bad motherfucker.” A search for that, at the moment, brings up a […]
I’m at Etech and they are about to start the “From The Labs” section. They’ve always got tons of cool stuff to show for these things, although it will be tough to beat Applied Mind’s dynamic 3D topographical map. Microsoft is talking about storing all data from somebody’s senses, as it should only really take […]
During a recent stint of self-righteousness and Googlejuice measurement, it came to my attention that searching for “andy, motherfucker” did not bring up my blog. I know, I know, it boggles my mind as well. How could Google, our omniscient and peaceful master not see the obvious connection between those two words. Andy. Motherfucker. Come […]

Whenever I am walking home form work, I am usually crossing a street after the walk light has changed to green and a car coming from the other direction (towards me in the lane nearest me) decides it wants to make a right turn before I get across the intersection. Frequently, it tries to beat […]
Come on and safari with me… My coworker Jennifer and I had to fight to the death over who got to use that title on their blog post after reading about the discovery of a giant frozen sea on Mars. Actually, she’s the one who started singing… so I guess I owe her all the […]
As noted in my last entry, my phone has taken a bit of a stumble. Boris was kind enough to let me use his P800 while I work on getting it back up to speed, and Dick lent me his P900, but all in all it has been slow rolling. It took about 20 minutes […]
I have a Nokia 6600, it is the coolest phone I’ve ever owned, but it will no longer sync with my Mac via iSync. Recently, whenever syncing contacts, it brings up a spurious “Low on memory” error. I have done everything I can think of to make this damn sync work, including formatting the phone […]
