Larry the Cable Guy : Health Inspector

  • 15 Oct, 2006

We rented Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector over the weekend and found it to be quite enjoyable. I think that all the bad reviews got our hopes down and when you go into a movie not expecting much, it turns out to be better than you expected. It was funny and worth our rent. […]

HalloFF Released – Sort of.

  • 14 Oct, 2006

I uploaded HalloFF to Mozilla yesterday and they excepted it. Much to my surprise, people are liking it. I say surprise because it’s kinda hacked together and I guess there are some white on white issues that I hadn’t seen before. But the reviews are positive so far. Hopefully I can get the white on […]

Getting Extensions to Work with Firefox 2

  • 11 Oct, 2006

Firefox 2 is now in release candidate 2 so people are giving a whirl left and right. Even I’ve tried it but I’ll save my mini-review for later. One issue that people have is that their extensions don’t work. Then they complain to the Firefox team which does no good. What you really need to […]

iClip vs iClip Lite – Multiple Clipboards

  • 9 Oct, 2006

A while ago I was introduced to iClip. iClip is a multi-clipboard application that records about as many items as you want. It can save the last three or 10 or 20+ clipboard items. Seeing as I have a tendency to copy something, then copy over it before I used the first one, this is […]

Pickin’ Apple and A-maze-ing Corn

  • 8 Oct, 2006

We enjoyed a few fall festivities over the weekend. We went to Deardorff Orchards, an apple orchard just down the road from us and picked our own apples. It was a beautiful day and just being outside enjoying the fall day was great. We also got some great apples and went for a wagon ride. […]

10 Flock Issues/Wishes

  • 7 Oct, 2006

Flock wants to know what we, the users, think. In a post titled ‘Your Top 10 Issues/Concerns‘ they are asking people to voice their issues. Here are mine. 🙂 No Cocoa Widgets on a Mac. (This one is a wish.) MacUpdate listing description is awful. When a feed is loaded from the sidebar and I […]

HalloFF Halloween Theme for Firefox 1.5.x – Testing

  • 6 Oct, 2006

A while ago I posted about a Halloween theme I found on Deviantart. It was a port of my Hallo Halloween theme from MacOSX to Firefox. It looked pretty good, until I installed it. Then it was lacking in many areas. So, I reworked it and am now tesing HalloFF, my Halloween Firefox theme. HalloFF […]

Now 14.7% More IE Friendly

  • 5 Oct, 2006

Blog on a stick is now 14.7% friendlier to our IE visitors. I removed a script that allowed IE to actually render transparent PNG’s with transparent backgrounds. It seemed to be slowing down the blog for those users and I didn’t like that. So it’s gone. Instead, you get to see an ugly background on […]
