Last night I performed an idiocy. However, it all panned out and I rather enjoyed the results. For the second time in the last month and a half, I locked my keys in the car. Al least I didn’t do it in Chicago this time. Instead I merely had to walk back to campus and…

Just spent the last hour or so trying to install a service pack for CorelDraw 10. "Trying" being the operative word here. Unfortunately I installed the downloadable trial version of CorelDraw many moons ago. Instead of buying a license for it, my inestimable employers purchased the software off of the shelf. Anyway, the service pack…

Okay, again with the feel-good, chicken soup pap. Read about the honest cabbie in Chicago. Link leads to an interview transcript. Read the three links above the transcript for the actual story. Kind of like Pay It Forward without the attached box office hype. I promise to get off of this smarmy, smiles-n-teddy bears kick…

The problems my mother in law has been experiencing getting on-line are over. Hooray! Fezboy! is off the hook and no longer has to feel responsible for getting her connected to the interwebnet-thingy so she can correspond with the outside world. It has been fun watching her go from entirely sceptical about the whole email/internet…

Crazy night last night – did not sleep much. I received a message from my "stepfather" detailing my shortcomings for missing mother’s day on Sunday. I won’t drag out the family laundry for a public airing, just suffice it to say that the irony was rich. So I spent most of last night alternately drafting…

Total brainwarp this afternoon. A trip to the public library yielded texts on relational databases using FileMaker Pro 5, two excellent introductory texts on XML, and an interesting read on Apache servers. The proverbial technology ship has come in here at Monroe County Library. Anyway, it will be an interesting bike ride home this evening…

Alas and woe. Actually, hooray and mirth. Well, no, alas and woe. I have found kindred souls here at the i-cynic. I have vague inklings of scepticism, but for now I really like this site.

Woke up this morning after a night of turbulent rolling in bed. I think I might be coming down with what the wife has been sufferring through for the last few weeks. I can feel the snot building behind the eyes and I can only wait for the dam to break and the goo to…

Well, Fezboy is back. Whatever that means. . . It’s been a long time in coming, but I hope you will be pleased. Since I’ve spent the majority of this day working on the redesign, content will have to suffer. Anyway, good to see you again. More later . . .

By the way, what happened to my damned post from last evening. This sucks. . . .
