iChat Slowness
Monday, April 26th, 2004I can’t figure out why iChat is so slow nowadays. The window is unresponsive and takes a couple of seconds to do anything like scrolling or focusing the window. This is unacceptable to me. I’ve tried rebooting with no avail. It might be because I have a large number of [...]
QotD: Questions of the Day?
Saturday, April 3rd, 2004Question: Is this question of the day format too geeky for me to continue using?
My answer, I think it’s mostly just an easy excuse for me to have content without coming up with anything original.
I don’t really understand the target audience of my blog (friends from/high school college). So what do you want to [...]
QotD: April Fools
Friday, April 2nd, 2004Question: What’s the best April Fools prank that’s been pulled on you?
The one that tops my list is one that some of the girls on my floor pulled on my this year.
To setup some background, about a week ago 4 of us guys were bored sometime after dark and decided to go exploring. [...]
QotD: Guns
Wednesday, March 31st, 2004Question: Have you ever shot a gun?
Yes. Everything from BB guns to Black Powder Rifles to .30-06’s.
You can thank Boy Scouts for my introduction to the world of guns. However, I’ve never gone hunting and don’t ever plan on it. And if you ask if I support gun control, the answer is [...]
QotD: Gambling
Tuesday, March 30th, 2004Question: What’s the most you’ve ever lost gambling?
The most I ever lost in one trip was $70. Boy did that stink. Especially since before I lost the $70 I was up $50. That was a $120 swing in the matter of a half hour or so.
Overall, I’m $20 in the hole after [...]
QotD: Bush
Monday, March 29th, 2004Question: On a scale of 1-10, how well has Bush done? 1 = shitty, 10 = awesome.
I’d say a 2. At least there haven’t been any big terrorist attacks on our nation since 9/11. But Bush has done nothing but piss off the rest of the world. The war in Iraq is [...]
QotD: Computer
Sunday, March 28th, 2004Question: How long have you been using your current computer?
I bought my first Mac, a Power Mac G5 sometime last fall. I own the Dual 2GHz edition with 1.5GB ram. The Power Mac is best described as fast as hell. Coincidentally, it is also the first Mac I’ve ever owned.
Prior to that [...]
QotD: Open Book Tests
Saturday, March 27th, 2004Question: How do you feel about open book tests?
They bug me when I know the source material really well because it’s a crutch for those who don’t know the material. Although I’ll have to admit that if I don’t know the material they make things much much easier.
On the whole, I’m against them in [...]
QotD: Card Games
Friday, March 26th, 2004Question: What are your favorite card games?
I like Bridge and 500. I’m a fan of games that require thought over fast action (ie: Rat Screw, Spoons, etc).
You are encouraged to answer the Question of the Day for yourself in the comments or on your blog.
QotD: Haircut
Thursday, March 25th, 2004Question: How much do you pay for a haircut?
$15 tops. I usually hit up one of those bargain places (Great Clips, Fantastic Sam’s, etc) when they have a good coupon. My hair is pretty low-maintenance anyway… just use the shaver thing on the back/sides and a little cutting on top.
I’ve had my mother [...]
