More Kitten (And One Cat)

Just a quickie again….. Turning into an arm cat. I fully expect this to be the last thing I see one morning as I’m finally eaten by my pets. The kitten is using mom as both chew toy and punching bag. Mom retaliates with the most feared weapon of all… baths! Corny, my original tabby, […]

Knight Rider – My Non-Review

I was going to take a bit of time tonight to trash the Knight Rider movie from last night, but it looks like IO9 has already done that far better than I could, with pictures and everything. I also recommend reading the live blog if you watched the show, and re-live the cheese.

My First Apple Tech Support Experience

Every User Lies…. How True!

Speaking as someone who spent four years in a Hell described as “Tech Support for Realtors” back in the days before the internet was big and before there were high speed connections (read: we were configuring modems for a big dial in BBS) I can surely agree that All Users Lie. It’s interesting that Heidi
