Who Has Time To Study Time

tom | July 31, 2003

…And its relations to classical and quantum physics? Apparently a 27 year old who spent 6 months at University. I imagine University is similar to our graduate school level for higher learning but I don’t know for sure as the term has European context. Whatever.
This “kid” seems to solve the problem associated [...]

Win Free Gas At Taco Bell?

tom | July 31, 2003

This is one of the funniest gimmicks I’ve come across. If you buy some stuff at TacoBell you could win free gas. The reality is, anyone who buys/eats something from Taco Bell is getting the gas for free - they always have! Sure, it might take 20 minutes to get your prize [...]

What is a blog?

tom | July 29, 2003

I followed a link from Ross’ Blog which led to some_yun_guy describing his “Eureka!” feeling with RSS and Blogs. So I got to thinking, “What is a blog?”.
Oh I know, it is short for ‘Weblog’, a journal or sorts. But I see it as more, or less, something, uhhh, else. I think [...]

Tom McDonald Sets World Record

In an unprecedented display of determination, Tom McDonald set the record for the longest nght’s sleep for a married man with a 2 year old child. For 12 hours Tom slept soundly and deeply, showing his ability to focus on the task at hand - Incredible!
It is true actually. I ht the wall [...]

No time to post

It has been a while since I’ve had the time to write something thoughtful and equally useless. And no time now either. Blasted!

Cool Tool - I love my Abs

tom | July 20, 2003

Not my stomach muscles silly, my Abigail. Dave Winer posted about a cool graphic by Bryan Bell for RSS. So I read some comments to that post and someone pointed me to a Heart Candy Maker. So I made one for my little one:

Cool huh? It’s true BTW.;-)

Just What Is Going On With Mozilla?

tom | July 20, 2003

Before I get started, you should know that I am a habitual conspiracy theorist, a known fault of mine and probably a more polite way of nodding to the notion of true paranoia.
I find it interesting that AOL bought Netscape a while back but continues to use MSIE for its browser engine. And not [...]

Brittish Open Craziness

tom | July 20, 2003

I just caught the end of the Open (thanks for the call Jaime!) and my goodness, it was painful and awesome to watch. Being a crappy golfer myself I can sympathize with the difficulty of getting out of the sand sometimes. But hitting it out, having it roll back in - Hitting it [...]

Return Of The Keeley

tom | July 20, 2003

Abs’ best friend Keeley swept in last night to hang for the weekend. For those who don’t know, Keeley was born just 4 weeks before Abigail and lived just a few blocks away. They spent a large portion of their first 18 months together and may as well be sisters at this point. [...]

Gigantisarus Spider Attack

tom | July 19, 2003

Normally when I run across a spider in my house I transplant it outside, away from my baby, wife, self. Today I was walking in to my house and a HUGE spider was hanging on my wall. This thing was nearly as big as the one we had in Biology while I was [...]
