Saturday, October 29th, 2005I added some photos to my gallery. I took these at a seminar I recently attended with Professor Pedro Sauer.

Oh no, he’s here.
Friday, October 28th, 2005Normally the President ignores this region, since it always goes the Republican’s way.
Is this a sign of something? Maybe wavering support? Who knows.
All I know is most people are just going to be pissed that it’ll make them late to work. Well, those of us who still have jobs, anyway.

Oil companies make record profits.
Thursday, October 27th, 2005I wonder if they’re profiteering at all? My solution? Stop driving land yachts that you don’t need. Not only is it making prices go up due to consumption, but it’s polluting the earth. Just stop. I can understand the few instances where you need a giant vehicle (hauling stuff….hauling…heavier stuff, ferrying people).

Supreme Court.
Thursday, October 27th, 2005I’m not all that surprised that Harriet Miers withdrew her nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States. She didn’t sit right with either party. I just hope they don’t nominate someone worse, like Ashcroft or Gonzalez.
I’m absolutely shocked.
Wednesday, October 26th, 2005I’m absolutely shocked about this.

Enter pork, stage right.
Tuesday, October 25th, 2005Pork has made an appearance in the “war on terror”.

Welcome to the United States of Fundamentalism
Tuesday, October 25th, 2005Where a pharmacist can refuse to fill a prescription just because they feel like it. First intelligent design, and now this?
The flying spaghetti monster is looking down on this and shedding a marinara tear.
And if “all life is sacred”, explain hunting, antifungals, antibacterials, antivirals, war, and the death penalty to me.
RIP Rosa Parks
Monday, October 24th, 2005A true pioneer in the Civil Rights movement, Rosa Parks died today at the age of 92. Some people say she planned the whole thing to work out how it did.
In the end, does it matter? A lot of good came from her act. American businesses and governments were shown that discrimination would not be tolerated.
We need more Rosa Parks in the world.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
Monday, October 24th, 2005I have a seminar with this guy tomorrow. I’m incredibly nervous.
Mt. Trashmore Gallery
Sunday, October 23rd, 2005I fixed my Mt. Trashmore Gallery as well.
I’m just on a roll, eh?
By the way, Mt. Trashmore is….a pile of garbage and soil, covered with grass.
I feel so podunk with that in my town.
Zoo Gallery
Sunday, October 23rd, 2005I fixed my National Zoo Gallery too.
I love subethaedit’s find and replace features.
Aquarium Gallery
Sunday, October 23rd, 2005I fixed my Virginia Aquarium (caution, lame embedded music) gallery.

Apple’s new offerings.
Friday, October 21st, 2005Apple announced a few updated products this past Wednesday. Full disclosure, I have and love a 12” 1ghz Powerbook G4. They bumped up the bus speeds, video cards, and pixel depth on their powerbook models, that’s probably the last bit of life that can be squeezed out of the G4, topping out at 1.5ghz, I’m not that impressed. What I’m really geeked for are the new G5 dual core processor Powermacs. For the uninformed, a dual core processor is basically like taking two processor’s brains, and sticking them on one chip, you can throttle the processing power, play solitaire on one while converting a video on the other, etc. Then I saw the dual dual-core 2.7ghz G5 Powermac. My jaw nearly hit the floor, that’s over 10ghz of processing power for around $3,000. I’m not sure about the video iPod, time will tell, but it’s Apple, so never count them out.
Aperture is not a photoshop killer, they can and should co-exist, it’s been a while since Adobe has had some real competition in the photo editing market, ever since they bought Macromedia.
My name is Rob, and I’m an Apple nerd.
Tom Delay
Friday, October 21st, 2005Doesn’t he take the cutest mug shots?
But seriously, I don’t really think the charges can stick, they’re reaching for straws.
As left as I lean from time to time, I just can’t see myself fervently behind throwing him in jail for something that a couple of people working for him did. I don’t agree with a conspiracy charge, I think it’s a BS catch-all charge for when the powers that be have nothing concrete(think Martha Stewart).
He may be hypocritical and narcicisstic, but I don’t think he had anything to do with this.
Gutenberg Project
Thursday, October 20th, 2005Many great (and not so great) works of Literature are available online, via the Gutenberg project.
It saved me from buying a Pushkin compilation just for Pikavaya Dama.
If you have a PDA, you’ll especially want some of these for long commutes.
