How I Got My Inbox Into Shape

I keep hearing people say that they got their inbox down to zero or their email is so organized and I never knew how they did it.  Then, last weekend, I sat down and started organizing a few messages.  Before I knew it, I was cleaning out my inbox and got it down to only a few messages. So […]

8 Things That Baffle Me About My iPod Touch

I’ve been an iPod Touch owner since Christmas and I’ve been very happy.  However, there are still a few things that I just don’t quite get.  Maybe someone can help explain. Coverflow – It’s a really sweet feature, but the album art seems to only match the song that was playing when Coverflow as activated. […]

Welcome WordPress 2.5 And The Awesome Admin

I took the jump and have upgraded to WordPress 2.5. On the outside, there aren’t any visible differences. Well, if you see any bugs, let me know. The admin side however is completely re-vamped and so nice! There are so may things to talk about that I just don’t have time right now to go […]

Cruising Past 100,000 Miles

It’s been 8 years and a ton of memories since I bought my Ford Focus.  Over the Easter weekend my Focus hit 100,000 miles! I was worried that it may expire when it hit the 100k mark.  You know, planed obsolesce.  But it didn’t, it just kept cruising down the highway.  Granted, it did leave […]

Daughtry and Bon Jovi Rocked the Xcel

Last night (March 19th) we enjoyed Daughtry and Bon Jovi in concert at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN. Granted our seats weren’t that close, and digital zoom isn’t the best, but I was pretty happy with my pictures.  View them all. And the concert ROCKED!  Daughtry is awesome and Bon Jovi sings […]

Weekend Update: Firefox 3, TV, Software and More

I thought I’d write a random post with some of what’s on my mind this weekend. I’m now running Firefox 3 betas thanks to MultiFireFox. MidnightFox was updated the other day with incorrect buttons.  Oops.  That has been re-uploaded and should be made public soon. yExplore and GA? have been updated for Firefox 3. Actually, […]

Help Thomas McMahon (me) beat a dead guy.

It shouldn’t bother me, and it really doesn’t, but I’ve been #3 in Google for Thomas McMahon for years now. I’m being beat out by a dead guy; twice. Granted, I think that even being dead, he’s got better link love. He’s a Harvard grad that has written eighty scientific papers, two scientific books, had […]

You know you need a new computer when…

… when they keys start falling off your calculator application! Now I know this is strange. I opened up Dashboard the other day and there was a missing key on the calculator widget. Where could it have gone? It can’t just pop off. Can it? Maybe Steve will announce Calculator 2 at MacWorld tomorrow. No […]

Safari & Leopard Font Issue

Ever since I upgraded to Leopard, my Safari has had an odd font issue. I ignored it for a while and even once thought it was coded that way on websites. Now I’m just getting more annoyed. Check out the screen shot I took from wordpress.org. > See how bold words are showing up in […]

Lets Get Social

I’m always looking to connect with more people via Facebook, StumbleUpon, Mixx or whatever social media circle. If you want to be my friend, check out my social media profile page and connect up with me. The more virtual friends I have, maybe my stories will get Dugg more or my Oregon Trail wagon will […]
