Hank Hill Would Be Proud

  • 20 Jun, 2005

Yesterday we put together and fired up our gas grill. This is our first grill but not our first time at grilling. We got a nice Char-Broil grill to put out on our deck and it looks good and cooks great too. Now I just need to find some good grillin’ tips and recipes.

Skype Me! Free Internet Phone

  • 17 Jun, 2005

So I just discovered Skype. I’ve known about it for a while, I just never tired it before. Yesterday, fueled by the anger towards Qwest, my co-worker and I checked it out. Skype is a phone service that is free for you to call other Skype users over your computer. You use your built in […]

Tim McGraw is Bitter

  • 16 Jun, 2005

I guess I would be too if someone took my life, my wife, my kids, my pride, the pool, the boat, my tools, my dreams, the dog and the cat. Ok, so it’s just the new song from Tim McGraw. It’s a bitter and fun song about a guy who looses everything and is forced […]

Mac OS X Tiger for WordPress

  • 15 Jun, 2005

It’s gorgeous! I found a plug-in that converts the admin side of WordPress into something much more Mac like! It’s so easy on the eyes and 10x better than the default. You can get your Tiger plug-in over at www.orderedlist.com. It does require Firefox to look correctly though as it’s the only browser that fully […]

Pay for a Dashboard Widget?

  • 14 Jun, 2005

I guess it’s gonna happen sooner or later, but the idea of paying for a Dashboard widget seems wrong. These are little applications that give you quick access to things like a phone book, calculator, ftp client and whatever you can think of. They are CSS/Javascript/DHTML type of things and can be vary handy. So […]

Michael Jackson Not Guilty

  • 13 Jun, 2005

Well the news it out. Michael Jackson is not guilty. Go figure. I really haven’t been watching and I’m not really surprised. However he needs to start changing his life if he wants to stay out of jail. Some of the things I hear are just creepy. Next time he might not be so lucky. […]

MnPass Reopens to General Traffic

  • 13 Jun, 2005

Less than a month after it began, and a bunch of complaints later, the Minnesota Department of Transportation has re-open the MnPass lane on 394 to general traffic during non-rush hour times. This means that in the evenings and on weekends anyone will be allowed in the lanes; just like it used to be. The […]

Apple Mail with iCal and Address Book

  • 9 Jun, 2005

I have an idea. Can anyone make a new Apple Mail application? Apple has the Webkit Open Source Project and it allows you use the tools that build some of Apples apps such as Safari, Mail many other OS X applications. So, couldn’t you then just re-tool Mail and create a better version? My idea […]

Intel and Apple – Who Cares?

  • 9 Jun, 2005

Ok, so everyone cares, however most are making to big of a deal about it. In reality, consumers don’t have anything to worry about. Apple will be switching to Intel processors in about a year and it is a big change. Big for Apple. However they are commented to it and have already created a […]

My Apologies to MacBytes Visitors

  • 9 Jun, 2005

How embarrassing. I got a link on a very popular Mac site, MacByes, and my referrer spam plugin blocked visitors form that site! I didn’t notice until this morning and I unblocked them ASAP. However, I’m afraid I may have turned some away without knowing it. I’m so sorry.
