Yearly Resolutions

It's not new year, so it's safe to make resolutions.

I will :

1) Eventually junk every computer I have that doesn't support USB *and* booting from a CD. (I spent the weekend wrestling with my nearly 10-year old proxy server, with faulty floppys/drives thrown in to make things More Interesting. Never again.)

2) Check that *individual* parts work with $OSofChoice, never mind the bloody chipset. (FYI - Belkin wifi cards don't work terribly easily with Linux. Not even when you compile the drivers.)

3) Upgrade one thing at a time. (At one point, the network was running off my iBook :( )

4) Update this webcomic at least weekly.

5) Finish studying for at least my latest cert ( CCNA )

6) Make an effort to eat properly

I will not :

1) Put off until tomorrow what can be done today.

2) Put of for six months what *should* have been done today.

3) Drink too much caffeine and work myself into a foaming lather of stress.

4) Sweat the small stuff.

5) Ignore the big stuff.

6) Substitute Pringles for meals.

7) Drink Cherry Coke for breakfast.

Frozen Bubble


Playing Frozen Bubble on my iBook... oh wait I just remembered, there's supposed to be a webcomic on this site.
We've been on unannounced hiatus for a while, due to the demands of work, family... and frankly, sleep.
But lots of things are going on behind the scenes. A site upgrade using PHP and MySQL is coming. A new strip should be up in the next couple of days.

Hey, Macchiato!


I have been assimilated. I've not got a 12" ibook, maxed RAM, airport. I've loaded on the Gimp and trial Fireworks, so we'll see how that goes.....

Queer, not Geek, Eye


Aaagh Thom! It's a computer case, not a 'hard drive!'
Oh well, I don't know patina from pate (or foie gras from grass).

And I for one, welcome our shiny ivory overlords.


Current Drool Object Shiny Thing!

I've seen it in real life, pictures do not do its stark white beauty justice. And then there's the GUI.

New Blogness


After trying to transfer my old blogs to the new system, I realised it was just too damn hard, and who cares anyway? They're here in case you're interested.
Things I need - sleep, berocca, and a hug from cupofzen. Not necessarily in that order.
Today hasn't been too long, but it is only 2:19. Can't see anything getting posted tonight, I need sleep and CofZ quality time.
