Mr. Rogers died last night, only a few hundred miles away from here. He will be missed.

Had a pretty good weekend. I’m almost done with my ActiveX tasks which is both a relief and kind of sad since the sandbox you get to play in with ActiveX usually means you can do way cool things. I will post a update later tonight. Have to pick up the dog before 6:30 PM. […]

Spent the last three days snowed in. I would have stayed again but my office was open and the only problem I have is finding a spot to park in once I get back. The snow is annoying. I have a very clear recollection of being in elementary school and walking home one blistering cold […]

A sample of what to expect from my Oregon trip video journal. This requires Windows Media Player 9 codecs, so if you haven’t upgraded lately, go there now.

Forgot to give ”The Osbournes” a glowing review for the episode this past Tuesday night entitled, ”My Big Fat Jewish Wedding.” Hilarity. Ozzy struggled to maintain his composure when Sharon recited her own personal vows to Ozzy. We need more stuff like that on TV. Joe Millionaire and The Mole and Fear Factor all suck […]

I bought some headphones, blank hi-8mm videotapes, and computer screen cleaner from CVS. Total cost? $35. Wow. Expensive. I lost my last pair of headphones in a horrible seatbelt accident. I need more blank tapes in case I need to document anything interesting. My computer screen is filthy. It didn’t do a good job. Screen […]

Heard the nominees this morning. Got a lot of catching up to do as far as nominated films. Wanna see ”Adaptation” next. My review for ”Confessions” is as follows: A randy trip back to the past with Chuck Barris is made all the more interesting thanks to the revelation that he was a secret agent […]

Sitting in the Loew’s Cherry Hill multiplex waiting for ”Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” to start. The pooch is at Petsmart awaiting a thorough scrubbing and I am hoping he will survive until my return in a couple hours. The pre-movie slideshow they have going now is showing me each slide for only 5 seconds […]

Not wanting to deal with the events that transpired over the weekend, I got onto the plane Sunday evening clutching my copy of the Kurt Cobain Journal hardback. Very interesting to read his musings over the course of his band’s eventual rise to stardom. So far after 70 pages his diatribe is growing somewhat stagnant. […]
