You heard it right – I’m shaving my head in solidarity with children who have cancer and typically lose their hair during treatment, while raising critical funds for childhood cancer research! In the US, more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease. Please make a donation on my behalf to support childhood cancer [...]
This is awesome! It’s a simulator re-creation of the flight of USAirways Flight 1549 that suffered a bird strike and went down in the Hudson River in late 2009, complete with overlays of the various different radio communications. No audio for the in-cabin discussions between Capt. Sullenberger and his First Officer, but you do [...]
File this one under “bizarre coincidences that you simply couldn’t dream up on your own.” One of my clients has been having trouble with ColdFusion on his server. I’m not a CF guy, so I can’t solve it for him, but he ran across a company with a bunch of very smart CF guys whom [...]

This was a gift [...]
You know, I’m quite fond of Google, but I’m getting irritated with their distribution schemes for Google Toolbar and Google Desktop. Off the top of my head, I don’t think I can come up with a software product that I’ve downloaded recently that didn’t offer to install Google Desktop and/or Google Toolbar. Call me stupid, [...]
A couple of weeks ago, our dog’s invisible fence mysteriously stopped working. The control unit in the basement was sounding an alarm that indicated that there was a break somewhere in the buried wire that defines the fenced area. What was strange about this is that the break materialized while we were at church. Now, [...]
