I think I’m going to have to visit the doctor. I only got an hour’s sleep last night, and I was awake up until I actually fell into Slumber-Land. Completely awake. Ugh. I feel OK at work today, but this has got to stop. On the plus side, I used some of my copious free time last night to finish off Accountability. I’m hoping to send out a request for testers today, so I can make sure […]

Wow! A lot’s happened lately. First off, Be, Inc. (makers of that BeOS thing I keep takling about) has gone public. It started at $6 per share and closed up 34%. I’m getting shares as soon as my check goes through DLJdirect, which should be tomorrow. The good folks at iD released Quake II for BeOS, which is a good thing. It’s a free download, but all they […]

Goofed off today, pretty much. Only real thing to report is that MST3K: The Movie is very good (not surprisingly). I love how they MISTed their own credits. Anyway, we’ve got some relatives coming in for the next few days, so I probably won’t be updating that often.

I exercised and did weights last night, and worked on a few bugs in Accountability. I was hoping to get selected items working, but I’m having trouble. We’ll see. I bought three DVD’s tonight after an evening looking around the stores in the area: Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie, The Secret of NIMH (considered Don Bluth’s best film), and Spartacus. I watched the former tonight, and boy I have to admit it was very good. Wish […]

Here we go…here’s Wolverine in the new X-Men film:

Yesterday’s update didn’t update; Wizard.net’s servers have been up and down lately. Their telnet server, in particular. I keep complaining, and it keeps coming down (hmmmm…maybe e-mails to webmaster@wizard.net automatically reboot the telnet server!). You’re gonna love this: the UN has “recommended” that governments start taxing e-mail. The equivalent of one cent per hundred e-mails, basically. My thoughts? It would discourage spammers, but that’s about […]

Well, I got a horrible night’s sleep last night, and the night before too, so I’m not exactly running on all eight cylinders today. Forgive any slips of the fingers. I started fiddling with BeOS R4.5’s demo of Moho, a 2D animation application that exports to standard movie formats. Myself and a friend have been coming up with an idea for a humorous short piece I can animate and have fun with. I’ve […]

Ran across some very cool Palm stuff today: the Bumper, a $40 protective, water-resistant carrying case for your Palm (so you can take it with you jogging, biking, hiking; whatever), and smallTalk, a piece of software that’s intended for travellers who need complex translations quickly. It handles several languages, and looks extremely useful. Unfortunately, it costs $80. Ouch.
