A Slow Audience is Still a Good Audience

Today was the yearly company event/outing.  If you’ve been following things, you know I put together a band of coworkers to entertain at this bash.  I just got home - tired and happy.
Every show I’ve ever played has been a total disaster for one reason or another, usually technical, sometimes due to the audience.  Even [...]

The Droid - 24 Hours In

So I’ve had my Droid for about 24 hours.
Since I’ve been otherwise occupied with the unavoidable consequences of occasionally having a life, I have had much interaction with it, other than it very occasionally ringing.  I can live with that.
This morning it was time to tackle one of the most important functions: transferring multimedia files.  [...]

I Have Been Droided

My company, acting with greatest haste, just procured a Droid for me (after it became available eleven days ago).  I figured I’d share the joy of unboxing and using it.
Keep in mind that my phone for the past (many) years has been a Treo 700p.  I’m a privacy and security nut, I can’t stand foo-foo [...]

Xubuntu 9.10 After a Few Machines

I have been using 9.10 for a short time now.  On the single Intel machine, I did a straight upgrade to 9.10.  On three AMD machines, I wound up doing a reinstall with 64 bit Xubuntu.  Trust me, if your machine is ok with it, use the 64 bit version.  It’s crazy fast.
So technically, only [...]

Win 7 Dog and Steer Show

There aren’t many people who would turn down a free lunch at the best steak place in the city, but that’s just me.  I tried valiantly but couldn’t get out of it.  It might have had something to do with the fact that it was a Windows 7 promo, put on by one of our [...]

Fall Philly Guitar Show

We left the cave on Saturday for the Fall Philly Guitar Show.  It was a beautiful day to be out, but then again, any day is a beautiful day for a guitar show.  It is, in fact, one of the few times we get to leave the cave.
The show happens twice a year at the [...]
