Chop, shoot and till
Spent Saturday getting baseboards cut and installed for our hallway and kitchen…finally just about have all the molding work done, just a few little pieces to do, some caulk and spackle, and the house will have recovered from the new flooring projects. I went ahead and bought a nailgun/compressor kit — as I’ve been [...]

Five people have been randomly killed in the neighborhood I grew up in. Scary. My parents still live in that area…according to Mom, she was actual in two of the exact locations of the shootings on Tuesday morning.

Readable URLs
Jon Udell makes some good points about human readable URLs. I personally like simple URLs, but I don’t feel so strongly about them as most. I think they work pretty well within websites that are managed by a single user — but tend to fall apart in group contexts.
My primary example of this [...]

New windows in Mozilla
Anyone know if there’s a way to make Mozilla open URLs in the existing window when launched from another app ( ie, clicking on a link in Mail ), rather than opening a new browser window? Mozilla 1.1/Win does this, and I love it — but Mozilla 1.1 on OS X insists on opening [...]

Recycling
Well, the City of Denton, Texas, has finally decided to steam headfirst into the 20th century and implement residential curbside recycling! We got our container yesterday. It’s got wheels, I like that.

Jonasay
One of my old friends (and band-mates!) Mike Leach’s band, Jonasay has made the Top 50 Finalists in the Coca-Cola New Music Award Competition. The winner will get to play at the American Music Awards in January. Pretty cool…check them out, they play really good straight-up pop music with great hooks. The [...]
