Today we visited Barbara Elise, the previously mentioned, unnamed, baby girl. It turns out they didn’t pick one of my names, though Tina did say she had up to two weeks to decide. She’s a beautiful specimen and only days old.

A Digitally Revolutionized Legacy
In association to an article at darrenbarefoot.com, I was reminded of a topic I’ve brought up before (with little success in exciting anyone). We’re beginning a new era of the “Digitally Revolutionized Legacy,” but it’s not us – Generation X – as first thought. No, the new era starts with our children. I would say… Continue reading A Digitally Revolutionized Legacy
Win XP Starter Edition Images
NeoWin.net informs us of a new edition of Windows XP (though I’m certain there were other more official sources), the Starter Edition (SE). SE is an ambiguous cloud of hype that many industries implore. It could be anything from “Second Edition” to “Special Edition” or “Sales Executive.” By maintaining the “SE” non-clarification however, a company… Continue reading Win XP Starter Edition Images
Algal Blooms for your Spring Decorating Tips
From a product I viewed (MoCoLoco: Algue) recently, home decor takes an organic leap forward. The product is one of Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec’s designs. The Bouroullec’s are brothers in the modern art industry. Some of their material is on display at the New York Museum of Modern Art, and their resumes continue to impress.… Continue reading Algal Blooms for your Spring Decorating Tips
A Chat with Microsoft
Today I sat with Julius B., a SQL guru with Microsoft, and discussed the implications of the OpenSource movement with him.

His take on OpenSource was familiar; that without corporate backing and support, there can be no consistency in… Continue reading A Chat with Microsoft

Kickboxing Robots Draw Crowds in Japan
In case you missed the Robo-One competition in Kawasaki, Japan, CNN has a good write-up on it. I also found some great videos on the subject. I’m so intrigued with the critters that are showing up in this competition. Basically, it’s a large group of combatant, bipedal, robotic machines (not all humanoid) that duke it… Continue reading Kickboxing Robots Draw Crowds in Japan
Gavin DeGraw
As recommended by Zach Braff, Gavin DeGraw gets a second from me. I’ve enjoyed going to his website allowing the playlist to continuously loop through a very nice selection of tracks. Props to the marketing genius for that. To summarize DeGraw, mix Howie Day and Jason Mraz. Any idea why it’s suddenly cooler to use… Continue reading Gavin DeGraw
Stuck
Yet another humorous vid at Balthazar’s expense. This time, he’s just trying to get to the dog food bowl in the bathroom – where I’ve hid it. The door has been mostly barred shut, but there might be room enough… more… This clip requires RealPlayer 10
Pictures are Good, Video Better
Playing around today at Celestial Studios, I got some great pictures of Balthazar. It was pretty much perfect weather, so we had a blast in and outdoors. I forget about this feature often, but check out the video Amy made of Balthazar’s new trick. more… This clip requires RealPlayer 10
