RIP, Joe Strummer
Clash leader Joe Strummer has died at age 50. Few have influenced modern rock more that the Clash…he’s made some pretty good music since their breakup, too.

Happy Holidays
Hope everyone has a great holiday. I’m off the rest of the week, and probably won’t be posting much, if any…I think they’ll be plenty of new toys to play with, so I’ll be occupied.

Fun with Cocoon
I’ve been reading Cocoon: Building XML Applications, an introduction to the Apache project’s Cocoon framework. I’m considering using it for delivery of documents at work…it’s fascinating, I think I may be hooked.

Am I cold or not?
While not a gut buster, I found it funny that my NetNewsWire window this morning showed me two completely unrelated posts from two different sites right next to each other, titled Dead Fridge and Cold Storage. Hmm.

Meteorologist
What a great little app. Displays weather conditions in the menu bar, with forecasts and more detailed info in the popup menu.

Hangovers aren’t suppose to get worse as the morning goes on, are they?

I can’t turn around today without someone asking me a question at work! Guess I need to stop turning around.

RIP, Dee
Our former comptroller at work, Dee Curry, died Friday night. She was known as a little hard to work with by some around here, but I think that was only a reflection of her attention to detail. I always found her to be patient and helpful…and much of the accounting end of the [...]
