Microsoft, You Missed An Opportunity

07.24.2007

A few days ago, I wrote a post calling attention to the trouble Atlantic correspondent James Fallows was having with Windows Vista. Apparently, even he has had enough of Vista and reverted to XP. This situation leaves me shaking my head. However, Mr. Fallows makes the excellent point that: Sooner or later, we will all [...]

One Week, 11 Years Ago

07.07.2007

I normally don’t post on Saturday, but I’m on vacation and I just felt the urge. I’ll beg your pardon from the beginning because this post is mostly self-serving. I’m revisiting a place I haven’t been to in almost 10 years, and I’m struck by how fast time goes by. The last time I visited [...]

Showing Persistance

05.03.2007

I’m a runner. Correction, I’m attempting to get my running legs back, and my body is resisting. Over the winter, I have a hard time maintaining my routine because I hate treadmills, and the weather can be too frigid for my lungs. I’m at the point where I’m running very long two-milers. Having been at [...]

Growing Up to Talk Like a Kid

04.26.2007

When you’re a kid, you believe you can grow up to be anything. I ran through the usual top 10…lawyer, doctor, astronaut, etc. (Writer didn’t make the first cut.) At about 10, I settled on becoming an architect. Every piece of paper I could find was soon covered with house sketches. The houses didn’t vary [...]
