I just mentioned Project Runway: a delightful show with tons of pluck that enlivens an industry that I want far, far away from me. (I enjoyed Six Feet Under, too, but that doesn’t mean I trust funeral homes now.) The unspoken assumption of the show is that women are decorative and probably vain, and […]
Yesterday, a Day Job Office Mate and fellow Project Runway watcher suggested a spin-off series: a new, new Odd Couple where Tim Gunn (D.C. native!) and Chris March share an apartment and hilarity ensues.
I suggested, “They could just move the same Eames chair back and forth.”
Well, dang, if the United States Postal Service didn’t provide […]
I’m sure it’s not forever, and perhaps not ever for long, but these few months have been pleasant and strangely instructive.
The exact reasons? Well, Ms. Theologian pretty well sums it up. Except that my farmers’ market closes at 1pm.

Each month is one side of a leaf (I […]

Sure I like the political message, but just as much or more I like this pro-Obama clip for the upcoming Texas primary because it reminds me of the Tejano music I enjoyed when I attened seminary in Fort Worth.
Not the third fourth day in a row, of course. This little computer has been more of a challenge to use with a version of Ubuntu Linux than I originally thought and that’s taken up my spare blogging time. The problem is I got the lowest spec-ed computer in the line; if you get the […]
A short note. The Asus Eee 2g Surf — the smallest machine in their lineup — looks like a good choice for many if you intend to use the preinstalled Xandros Linus OS as it is installed. But if you want to put something IMHO option that’s better, like Ubuntu Linux, you’ll have some problems. […]
