Well, as long as I'm praising Microsoft things, the active desktop in Windows 2000 is pretty nice too--have a web page as your desktop. Has some potential, that. Of course, eazel embeds Mozilla on its desktop, and it's GPL'd, and it runs on Linux. But I'm not sure it's out yet. And none of this, of course, would seem quite so nice if I wasn't on an 800MHz Pentium III.

Okay, credit where credit is due: Microsoft Windows Internet Connection Sharing is a nice, clean, easy to set up NAT proxy system, and using it I was able to get catherine (my main Linux box) reconnected to the internet in a matter of minutes. And not a whole lot of minutes, either. About 5.

Actually, the one Palestrina mp3 that I have fades rather nicely into the Pixies' "Where is my mind?".

The Advertising Agency Song:
When your client's hopping mad,
Put his picture in the ad.
If he still should prove refractory.
Add a picture of his factory.

Okay, so I read in InfoWorld that a company called Agenda Computing is working on a Linux handheld... and for some reason, I can't seem to find their website! I know it exists--InfoWorld referred to it--but it's not showing up in google. This is madness.

Coming soon, possibly, a very special episode of bloglet--how my trip home from Texas was delayed a full six hours.

Okay, so I'm going from Austin to San Francisco, with a layover in Phoenix. The plane from Phoenix is supposed to leave at 4:15, but instead it's delayed until (!) 7:30. And then, when I arrive at SFO, the company I had a return bus ticket to Santa Rosa with doesn't show up at 9:30, and then, when it arrives 15 minutes late for its 10:30 pickup, leaves in a huff because the other bus company had sent in an extra bus to pick up all the extra people. So I don't get home until 2:00am. Thank you, America West and Airportride.com.

Greetings from Texas, where I've decided the heat isn't so bad as all that, and where it's kind of neat to see people I'm actually related to.

Okay, point 1: Since of the two parties, one is liberal and one conservative, each party can be assured the votes of the extremists in its own camp--the only alternative for the extremists would be to vote for someone even more opposed to their ideas. This means that it is virtually always good strategy for candidates to move closer to the opposition, to rope in as many undecided voters as possible (this is only an approximation, but let it pass). However (and I only saw this tonight), point 2: This isn't in itself so bad; parties must listen to their extremists, but be tempered by their moderates. (A more detailed analysis of why they must listen to the extremists later). The problem comes with the set of issues that aren't questioned on the standard political spectrum--that aren't extreme left or extreme right. There is no incentive to address these issues, because they do not effect either the party bases or the disputed middle ground. More analysis like this coming soon to items.

What's that? There aren't any mouse handlers built in? Well then, I'll just have to implement them--by making everything a button.

A question I would never have come up against in a traditional language: what font to put my library functions in. Not the code, mind you, the objects. Ah, the joys of drastically misusing an environment. The designers had their turn with HTML, it's only fair that the programmers now get to have a go at Flash.

Restructuring programs is harder what all the source code is attached to various little icons and things. I'm not sure I've even found all the source code.

I like coming into work, wearing my normal everyday clothes, and feeling that I just might be overdressed. If you know how I tend to dress, you'll realize just what a thing this is.
