Software You Can Use
A while back my sister Kimmy asked me to post about the software I use. And, you may be surprised to hear that people ask me about programs they should have weekly. It is probably just a coincidence that I actually spend way too much time researching Read More...
Sweet game/tool
I have only played with this for a little while, and it is much tougher to work than the video shows, but it is pretty sweet. The liquify feature is the coolest! Read More...
ADHD...
You can't believe these web surveys, but this pretty much confirms what my wife Nina has been telling me for years. I still think every guy has some form of ADHD. There are a lot of questions about anger, and I don't get angry/annoyed easily, so maybe Read More...
Geekdad Rocks
So, I would like to take this opportunity to pass on a LINK. This blog is super cool. I am tempted to just link to individual posts for the next month, but for now really, check it out. I think the total count of dads that are geeks that read my blog Read More...
Tesla Coil
Sweet video! I started clapping when the Mario theme song came on... Kinda awkward for everyone else at work. Read More...
Linux Trial
This post has been in the works for over a month. I had decided to install Linux on Selena's Laptop alongside Windows several months ago. Since there is so much buzz about Ubuntu lately, including posts from a blog I visit , I decided to try the live Read More...
The Nerd Handbook
I stumbled across this Nerd's Handbook a couple months back. A lot of crazy nerd stuff in there, but also soooo many things that fit me well. Mainly, this serves for those of you privileged enough to be associated with a nerd of any class. Read More...
Can You Swim?
This is making the rounds across the internet, and it was probably a joke within Google at some point, but I had to pass it on. How good of a swimmer are you? Google suggests driving directions from New York to Dublin, Ireland HERE . Step 23: Swim across Read More...
Global Warming Debate
I have been thinking more lately about the global warming stuff lately, since the Scientific American podcast has mentioned it nearly every episode for the last couple months, and decided to check out a site I had linked to before: Michael Crichton's Read More...
Super Mario Trombones
I caught this video on the web a couple days ago, and had to share it. I am working on a post about the global warming "crisis", but this is simpler, and perhaps just as important that you see. Even non-geeks should appreciate this one, but maybe won't. Read More...
Bloggin' History
Two stories about blogs today on CNET. This story is a little history of a possible origin of blogging (totally geek link). This story claims that blogging on the net is now 10 years old (less geeky, but still pretty geeky). Today, there are an estimated Read More...
Ubuntu for the Girls?
After reading that latest posts on Flagrant Disregard like this one , I am looking into installing Ubuntu on my spare PC, and setting it up for EG and Isa. They are a little young, but EG lately has loved coloring with the Wacom, and we have a PC that Read More...
Happy Pi Day
Celebrate π day - I almost forgot about this if it weren't for a nerdy programmers newsletter. Read More...
Site upgrade
I finally got the latest version of community server working. That means an easier interface, and cooler look. It also means that I can change the address of my blog. So, if you are using a feed reader, you will need to add the new feed location. I had Read More...
Wii Dreams
Well, It's coming!! I will likely never own a Wii, but part of me really wants one. It's not really that I even want one that bad, so much as I want to have the time to be able to play on something like that. I haven't played a gaming system since I first Read More...
