  • Stick Figures in Peril?

    Just before going to NY for my father-in-law’s surgery, I heard about a group on flickr called “Stick Figures in Peril”. I looked at the group and thought it was a pretty interesting concept – take pictures of warning lables where it looks as though the stick figures are in trouble. When I saw this…

  • 10 Reasons to use Linux instead of Windows….

    Borys Musielak, has published an article on polishlinux.org on his top ten reasons why Linux should be used instead of Windows. I have just finished part one, which is what the previous link goes to. Although he claims that he is purposely being biased against Windows, he’s actually quite fair towards Windows. For example: What’s…

  • It’s Coming…..

    Fedora Core 6 will be out on 11 Oct 2006 (if they keep to schedule this time). Expect some screenshots once I get the AIGLX special fx working. They’re a little behind SuSe on this one, but still pretty ahead of the game.

  • Wonderful Imperfection

    Sometime the best things are imperfect. For example, there’s something I just love about this photo even though I wasn’t able to capture his whole face since I was zoomed at 200mm and he was moving very fast. Yet I got it in focus and it is such a beautiful black and white picture. Not…

  • Introducing my SECOND CGI program: Eric’s BlogRoll

    You can find it here or on the right-hand side under “My pages”. This is a program that’s been in my head for about four days and which I spent most of yesterday working on until I realized I was going down the wrong path. Ah, but I’m getting ahead of myself. This program is…

  • I’ll get you someday!

    This darned pigeon and his brethren in the parking garage at work have put more bird feces on my car in one day than I have had on the car in its entire 11 year lifetime. “Of course you know, this means war!”
