By junior on November 8, 2009, at 1:19 pm Yes, yes, I know. I have been a very negligent blogger. I don’t want to say it’s been
Alesis MultMix USB 2.0 in its Peaceful Configuration
a while since I posted hereabouts, but…well, it probably wouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone if the header image changed to “rolling tumbleweeds.”
And no, my recent […]
By junior on September 13, 2009, at 10:25 pm I know I promised to try and post some odds and sods that didn’t make it in to my Maple Leafs Annual article. I haven’t had a chance just yet to go digging through the digital archives, because I’ve been working almost literally all weekend (aside from a spin on the lawn tractor and a […]
By junior on August 21, 2009, at 6:56 pm RED LETTER DAY FOR ME!!!
My complimentary copy of the 2009-2010 Maple Leafs Annual – the Leafs season preview magazine containing my article on the arc of the Leafs’ rebuild and published by the “lunatic millionaires” who are “allergic to money” has arrived! Can you believe it, my piece was published on page 85, well […]
By junior on May 5, 2009, at 7:30 am This is how I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that print journalism must be anachronistic, irrelevant and doomed: I have been asked to write a piece on the Leafs for publication in an actual hold-it-in-your-hand, you-could-drop-that-thing-and-bruise-a-toe book. And get this: I am told that I will be getting paid to do this thing. […]
By junior on January 27, 2009, at 11:12 pm Credit me this much: tonight, I did the food preparation thing without a recipe. Yup, workin’ without a net.
No don’t go getting too excited, it wasn’t anything terribly complicated. Tonight’s offering was tandoori chicken, which I made by lathering a pre-mixed tandoori paste (store bought) with some plain yoghurt (as per the directions on […]
By junior on January 7, 2009, at 1:16 pm It never ceases to amaze me how seemingly intractable problems can be so troublesome on one day and essentially resolve themselves in a flash the next.
The Digital Overlord
Yesterday, in addition to offering up nearly 2,800 words on the subject of my adventures with murderous aquatic pets, I also spent a significant amount […]
By junior on October 23, 2008, at 8:34 pm Spouse and I went for some lunch to a little burger and sub shop in St. George yesterday. I took a picture of the sign out front (depicted in the photograph below):
I’m not sure what utility there is in a mass transit vehicle that is twelve inches in length; but you […]
By junior on September 6, 2008, at 10:12 pm One project that needs to get done soon is the augmentation of certain shelving in our kitchen. One of our cupboards, specifically the one that is chock full o’ tumblers, has only three shelves (including the bottom surface of the cabinet) inside, though it is more than 40 inches tall. My mission, and I had […]
By junior on June 16, 2008, at 9:32 pm Anger. Frustration. Despair.
These are the emotions experienced by an otherwise rational person trying to decipher the apocryphal meaning concealed deep beneath the outer veneer of something disguised as language and otherwise known as a “simple” introduction to any programming language. Don’t get me wrong, I am very grateful that my fellow netizens – some […]
By junior on October 30, 2007, at 12:04 am One of the things I’ve been struggling with recently (yes, that was me that you saw wrasslin’ on the floor with the toaster, an artichoke and some precast concrete yesterday) is Blender. Blender is an the open source 3d modelling, animating and rendering package. For the Luddites in the virtual room (yo, represent) that means […]
