I laughed myself stupid, I got all palm sweaty when they were being all crazy on the swings (with no ropes at times!), and for most of it, could hardly believe what I was seeing. The characters were so unique and well
20080901 4:38am: keeping up with the virtual jonses, lees, Nováks, garcias and ??????'s I recently finished reading Charles Stross' "HaltinG StatE" - an excellent fast-reading novel of a theft in virtual/real game/life.

This is obviously a great way to promote their guide, and obtain free media, h
20080420 1:58am: Richard Stallman interview in New Scientist - on page 42 of course The title is just trivia =) I dig hackers.

the rest of this post is for
20080412 12:40pm: Wanting to change I'm beginning to realize the thoughtless or immature feelings and reactions are never going to go away. Growing up is learning to deal with them, and react appropriately.Quite frankly, I'm jealous of the people who seem to know how to react appropriately
20080409 10:39pm: Browser Options It's good to see that with IE8, software developers are finally recognizing the value of choice.
Long gone are the days when anyone bothers complaining about browser implementations anymore.. We know there's always going to be workarounds, it's kind of l
20080407 12:22pm: cruising I have my consulate stamped driving history and I'm ready to go for a driving test here in Ontario. To brush up, I rented a car for the weekend. I love driving :) I also picked up a cheap bike from canadian tire - a laid back cruiser. Finally we have some
