    My opinion. Airport Express sucks

    While I haven't been a serious mac owner until recently, I've always been *around* Macs (I've been in the computer biz since '90) and it seems there's a phrase that's always used... "trash your preferences and reconfigure" Could it really be *that* simple (and unstable) for 15+ years?? O_o ?

    Yeah, I'm in. I'm just about 30 minutes out of south philly.

    Interview the person beneath you

    A: Inevitable widespread commercialization of a cult success. Q: What fictional character says, "(sigh) Nothing is ever easy." PS... Matrix I was good and should have been left alone. Matrix II sucked, Matrix III sucked all the suck that suck could ever suck. It was pretty f'ing horrible...

    Interview the person beneath you

    A: Charles Nelson Reilly? Ok, ok... Black Cherries. Q: Zuchinni or squash?

    Let's see if your real face looks better than your desktop. Post your pic!

    It's a running gag in our house. All the kids are cute. Cute enough that they draw compliments. We just tend to look at the kids with a look of dispassionate acceptance and say something about "well, yeah, not bad looking. We won't throw it back just yet" or something to that effect. Some...

    Have you been.....?

    Most of the signs are found in people with active imaginations, slight symptoms of paranoia, and those seeking validation. Doesn't mean abduction. (shrugs) (my 2 years of old high school psych classes coming back to haunt me :) )

    The little one is my youngest (of 5), Sarah. She's a precocious 3 1/2 now and cute as hell! I think we'll keep her. Maybe. Yeah, I guess so.

    Your desktops

    I change mine frequently. not frequently enough to have a program do it or anything, but I just get bored with it easily. My best (favorite?) one to date was a screen shot of a full screen text editor with a bunch of java code in it. Won me geek of the century nod at work :) I'll post it when...

    scanning pics into iPhoto with customized date

    And if you want to do it in batch mode at the command line (if GraphicConverter can't do that), shoot me an email. A buddy of mine has some perl scripts that do it. He had to write them because his digicam kept losing the current date and a lot of his pics were misdated.

    Well, here's me. I'm the short one with very little hair... wait, no that doesn't quite narrow it down enough... hmm...

    Interview the person beneath you

    A: Huge fan of Scrabble, but that doesn't work with all parties. Strip (anything) is always a good fallback. Q: Have you ever *seriously* considered buying a "Green" car (alternate fuel, hybrid, full electric, etc) and if you did consider it, why didn't you buy it?

    Epson scanner connection problem

    It's not quite an 1/8th of an inch. It's pretty shallow but it isn't flush, either.

    Has anyone here written a book?

    I've done some fantasy and SciFi based short stories. Never anything big enough to call a book, tho'.

    Help with text file processing

    Aquamacus, Ok, I've got a preliminary data scrubber application finished for you. Like I said, it was fun. Here's what I did... (I'm also emailing you the output file and the source code). I open the file in a standard line-by-line text reader. Each time I see a Tab at index 0 followed...

    Amazed

    I'm not sure I get it. If that's to read sites on the iPod offline, ok. Neat idea if you want to peruse the text of larger sites while not online. Some usefulness there. If, however, that site is suggesting to build websites that look/act like an iPod, that has got to be *THE* most annoying...
