Suspect FireWire cable just wasted an hour of time.
Never record DV and HDV content on a single DV tape. Makes importing a total nightmare!
Just received another $100 deposit from Google Adwords for Road Sign Math. I should really pay at least a little attention to that site.
Checked out Craftaganza at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. Pretty cool. Go if you can.
Dropped Izzy and Chase off at Downtown Dogs.
Happy Big Birthday Day to Tammy!
Totally bailing on the Get in Gear 5k. Tammy too.
January-like snow at the end of April!? Ugh!
Just found a wood tick crawling on my back in bed. Blaming Izzy for bringing it into the house. Seems tick season has started!
Beware, Perian 1.1 and iDVD using H.264 video sources is bad mojo. You have to remove the Perian drivers before transcoding for the DVD.
Gearing up for Tammy’s birthday weekend!
The $300,000 Watch That Doesn’t Tell Time ← Anyone up for a $300,000 watch that doesn’t tell the time? 🤪
Yum Kitchen gets WiFi
The Internet continues to expand! I was recently at Yum! Kitchen and Bakery, a regular favorite restaurant of ours, and was happy to see my iPhone detect a new open wireless network named “Yum”.
You can now happily nosh on some great food, coffee and treats while surfing the Internet in style.
For some reason I feel like I need to avoid Facebook chat as if it were some virulent strain of bird flu.
Al's Breakfast
A few days ago I got a hankering for hash browns. It seems most breakfast places have moved to potato wedges which are a far, far cry from hash browns as they were intended to be. I was thinking hash browns, and got thinking about Al’s Breakfast. It had been a few years since I had been to this college mainstay so I emailed Jim and Kent to see if they wanted to hit Al’s for breakfast before work soon. Off we went!

It turns out that this was a big trip to Al’s. Jim had never been and had wanted to go for years and years. Kent wasn’t sure if he had been there. He thought no but let’s just say his recollection was foggy. We all had a great breakfast. I couldn’t resist ordering a single “whole wheat wally black” and one of their great omelets. And of course, with a side of hash browns.
Aside from the food, the place is a total dive. 🙂
Totally ecstatic about the warranty repair job on my Aeron chair today. Like new!
Just submitted a serious bug in iMovie to Apple.
Finally watching Paris-Roubaix. Thanks TiVo.
Just imported my first DV tape from the Canon HV30. Quality is amazing.
iPhone just restarted itself while syncing. 😕
