    • Grandma’s Memorial Mom and dad just got back from their trip to Florida for Grandma's funeral, and dad posted this photo (with more to come, he says).
    • Another day, another Doocing Another one bites the dust, as they say — this time Mark Jen, formerly of Google. TDavid has a good wrapup of information on this latest 'blogger gets fired' story.
  • 2004
    • Examining Bush’s military record More and more, people are getting to the bottom of Bush's military record — the real one, that is, not the glossed-over propagand-ized version he'd like us to believe.
    • Ilium Oooohhh &dmash; a new book by Dan Simmons! Being a big fan of his Hyperion series, this is very good news in my universe.
    • GarageBand is evil I've poked around with GarageBand a bit since I got it, but haven't created anything major yet. However, it is way too much fun.

Not surprisingly, this has led to a fairly large uproar, to the point that White House spokesman Ari Fleischer issued his denouncement to reporters.

    • Doing Trekkies (-ers?) proud It's been known for a while now that Paramount was going back and doing some work on Star Trek: The Motion Picture for its upcoming DVD release -- we just weren't entirely sure just what that meant.
    • Ups and downs, and some possible changes Yesterday was not exactly the best day I've ever had -- not the worst overall, but certain moments may have some fairly large impact on days to come.

    • [From Usenet: 2.9.94 0549] The only one I know of is _Solid Gold Hell_, available as an import from Cocomelos Records. Decent enough, although I wouldn't rave about it.
