Andrew, Chris, Mike, and I appreciate the Wendy’s Frosty. Eliza does too but she thinks the vanilla is good so we’ll leave her out of this discussion. We have a few Wendy’s "near" us. One is in Dickson City (about 10-15 minutes away) and one in Clarks Summit (about 20-25 minutes away)*. Both of which

For those of you wonder how Eliza and I are doing since there was some major bridge damage in Clifford – we don’t live in Clifford anymore. We moved. We’ve not heard of anyone having any serious injuries in Clifford but we have heard that it is a major inconvenience having the only road going

I was half expecting to write a very long, detailed review of the Keyword Manager for iPhoto. However, I will not. I will just say that if you are the type of person that is willing to invest in their personal data’s future – and the ability to find it quickly and easily, the Keyword

There are quite a few handy Safari plugins out there. Most of them try to help make up for what Safari lacks, and normally I’d be all for trying to get the most out of your software. Not in this case. I’ve tried a few Safari plugins over the years and most of them, if

My wish list for the Finder is not as extensive as other’s will be. Partly because I do not have as many complaints about the Finder as I’ve seen long-time Mac users have – particularly those you came from OS 7, 8, and/or 9. Fixes As I said, my list of fixes will be pretty

Another application within the Mac OS that is open for most of my day is iChat. Many have chosen to use third-party chatting applications like Adium – but the ability to hold audio and video conferences, and transferring files to those on my list, proves to be indispensable features for me. Fixes I hope not

I’m not as much of a power-user of Mail as I probably could be. There are features of Mail that I simply do not use, and therefore my request for Mail are rather light. However, I do feel that some of my requests make sense, so hopefully they will be included in Leopard. Fixes Here

I fully realize that my "wish list" that I will be publishing is coming a little late to be included in the Spring-time update to the Mac OS – however it is good to note that much of what I am documenting has already been sent to Apple months ago. The first thing I’m going

I’ve wanted to visit New Zealand for awhile. Its been a long time goal of mine, but some of the photos I’ve seen lately (since I’m subscribed), is starting to make me want to get the heck out there sooner rather than later.

Originally published in early-May 2004 with the title of “The story of my iMac”. I’d say that it began in July 2002. My wife Eliza and I like to catch the live Apple Keynote’s whenever we can. The July 2002 broadcast introduced the iMac 17″flat panel, preloaded with OS X. I mentioned to Eliza that

My wife Eliza has said before that she loves Wednesdays. So perhaps it is of little surprise that I too enjoy Wednesdays. I have a few reasons for really liking this particular day of the week. LOST New DVDs from Eliza A chance to see what you’ve already done for the week, and what is
