05 Mar 08 It Gets Busy Around Here
 So where have I been? It’s been quite busy here the last few days, even on the weekend. Something has to give sometimes, and as I spend all day in front of one of these beasts, sometimes, just sometimes, I have to kick back, and let it know who is master.
Yes, OK, so you are, oh wonderful box of bits, bytes, chips, nybbles, and silicon.
When you think back almost 40 years to when we landed on the moon, and the power of the computer in the lunar module, compared to what we have today…
Mind you, if Appolo had relied on Windows they’d have probably ended up on Mars or Venus instead. No, it’s ok, I won’t go off on an anti Microsoft rant today, although, I hear the latest in a whole pile of lame, buggy, insecure, non-compliant web browsers is about to hit the streets in beta form today… Internet Explorer 8. IE6 and 7 are still out there tormenting us web developers…. sigh.
The weather here today (yes, lets change the subject), is delightful for early March. I’ve got the doors wide open and fresh air through the whole condo.
It’s currently 66F outside and 77 in here. That suits me just fine for now, while I’m sitting here tickling my masters keys. Master? Don’t be silly! I could dismantle the network, sell the computers, and live quite happily without ever seeing one again. Of course I could! Couldn’t you?
