So much to say...

And so little time... So many things I am thinking about today and no time to ramble on about them... Can't cram it all into 140 characters. ;)

Twikini version 1.0 released!

Image
The entire reason I started using Twitter if the first place was to have an excuse to play with the many clients available for Windows Mobile. I have a thing for good software. :) After quite some time I thought I had finally settled on a Twitter client for my phone... Until I saw a news post about this great new Twitter client called Twikini. I'll admit, the name put me off a bit at first but it looked nice and claimed to be fast (which my current Twitter client was far from) so I gave it a try. Having only used Twikini for a day I was convinced. It was FAST and just had that feel of really well written software. It was a joy to use. Twikini's feature set is truly amazing, there are far too many to go into here but I'll touch on a few I really like. Inline display of Twitpic pictures! This is a great feature and a true time saver. Most of the time a quick thumbnail view is all you really need to get the gist of someone's Twitpic post. For those times when you need mo...

Shipping overkill?

We recently purchased 25 refurbished Cisco switches from a company. One of them was defective so we returned it or another one. Well, that one arrived today in this box... That's just nuts... ;) Ah! There is something in there! All this box for a single switch??! Umm, ok...

Spring hath sprung...

Yes, spring is here. At least today anyway. Frakin screwy weather... I had a nice drive home from work todat with the top off the car. Then helped the wife finish off mowing the yard for the first time this year. Looks like rain and maybe sleet over the next few days though... Least we got one nice day. :)

Go Go Sparkle Monkey!!

So this is what Alastria comes home with yesterday. He should make a nice addition to my desk. :) He looks really cool if you turn out the light and shake him real good. :D

Spam fail.

Image
I got this spam mail today and just had to share... It is a rather nice spam form letter but it appears that someone actually forgot to populate the form fields. :D So, if you ever wondered what uncooked spam (mail) looks like here you go. ;) Spam FAIL!!

The little tree that could.

Image
Over the last 2 years the wonderful ice storms we had have all but destroyed the trees in our front yard. One we completely cut down to the ground and the other we kinda just left. We tried to cut it down but the wood was too hard for the chainsaw we had. But that really didn't seem to matter to the trees. :) The one cut to the gound looks more like a bush now and the shattered stump? Well, you can see how it is doing above. :)

Look to the future...

Tee hee...

Change...

Image
Haha. Love it. :)

Which way do we go George...?

Near 70 in February... Nice. Too bad I didn't have yesterday off work... Oh well. Nothing like workin on the car in the rain...
