What a week! I just got back from sunny California, where I went to Disneyland, the d23 Expo, and the Burbank studio lot, as well as visited with friends at CigarPress 2015. As I will not be able to sum all of that up in 100 words, expect another post or two.

My 2 Months with the iPhone got picked up by BGR and made a big splash. It even got tweeted by Phil Schiller!

Finally, I spent the week putting my new Nikon D3300 to the test. I shot mostly manual and loved it. I got some great shots. Album to come.

    Bycasabona

    Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz’s betting charges are the latest in a long list of reasons (like death threats to players AND their families) why prop bets are bad for everyone.

I have started at least 3 books without finishing them, but right now I’m reading Gumption by Nick Offerman. I loved Paddle Your Own Canoe and couldn’t wait for the follow-up title by Ron Swanson. It’s 21 essays…

    3 things I’m grateful for, this second week of August, 2021: CleanShot X: This handy little app is a fantastic way to take screenshots, mark them up and then easily share them. But the killer feature for me is the ability to make gifs out of screencasts. It’s $29 (once) OR it comes with Setapp….

  • Using Spotify Again

    About once per month I wonder how Apple Music can be so bad and core features, like playing music and adding songs to a playlist. I’ve resisted switching because thanks to me being deeply embedded in the Apple ecosystem, I wouldn’t actually fully switch away from Apple Music. I’d be paying for 2 music streaming…

    Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don’t hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website! Today I read a post at Treonauts.com comparing the Treo and iPhone. As a Treo user (and a bit of…

    It’s been about 1 month (34 days) since I’ve been using an automated saving service called Digit, and I’ve really been digging it. I’ve saved around $360 without realizing or missing it, and I keep really good track of my finances. The way it works is you connect a bank account, it spends a couple of…
