Sadly, Misha has an infected paw, so he has to take antibiotics and wear a collar so he doesn’t chew on his paw. He’s taking it very well, but it is still sad to see him lounge around all depressed…

The free market works…except when it doesn’t
Ten years ago, I bought a standard glass tube TV with a single coax input. Today, I have an LCD flat-screen TV with more inputs than I can use. Ten years ago, my car didn’t even have airbags. Today, cars come with all sorts of safety devices. Ten years ago, my computer had 32 MB… Continue reading The free market works…except when it doesn’t
Colorado Photos
I’ve posted photos from my trip to Colorado here. Some of my favorites below the fold…
Computer Utility: PDF Split and Merge
I really don’t like working with PDF files. They have silly DRM that interferes with your ability to copy and paste, they crash browser, they can be huge if incorrectly generated, they are generally not accessible to people who need to use special software like screen readers, sometimes you can’t search them…in short, they usually… Continue reading Computer Utility: PDF Split and Merge
Observations on Denver
I just returned from a nice little trip to Denver, a place that I had never visited before. Actually, Denver is now the farthest west I’ve ever been in the U.S. (well, technically, it is Silverthorne, just west of the Eisenhower Tunnel on I-70, the extent of our driving). I liked it, despite typically heading… Continue reading Observations on Denver

So far we’ve driven up into the mountains and visited Colorado Springs (no, not to visit Focus on the Family, but the Garden of the Gods). Today is… Continue reading Live from Littleton
Computer Utility: WinSCP
Every once in a while, you need a good FTP client. For Windows, I use WinSCP. It’s pretty simple to use, it allows you to save login information, and it has a good bunch of features. My only quibble with it is that it defaults to SFTP as the protocol, but as long as you… Continue reading Computer Utility: WinSCP
Off for a bit
After just recently getting the internet back at home, I’m off until next week to Denver. Enjoy the weather!
New photos: Cats
Now that I have internet again, I added a few pictures of the cats to my online gallery. A couple selections below the break.
Back online
After what seemed like an interminable time (but was in reality a little over a week), I once again have internet access at home. I’ve had issues with Comcast in the past, but this time around the tech came out and did a good job solving problems and getting everything up and running. I’ll finally… Continue reading Back online
