New blog post:: Woes of MacBook Pro Unibody Owner http://bit.ly/bI3RWI #
Of all the Apple OS X Aqua desktop pictures, I still think the "Panther Aqua Blue" is the best of the bunch. #
OH: "If you don't have time to do it right now, when will you ever have time to do it over later?" So true… #
Finished taxes for older son. He owes $1 to the state of CA. It's going to cost the state at least 10x that to process the form. #Califaila #

A full weekend of wipe-the-mac and start-fresh to finally track down a couple of buggy kernel extensions installed by Shimo VPN front-end… #
Nice to be able to crack the clamshell open and not get logged out (sometimes repeatedly), or end up with unstable apps, or a kernel panic. #
Verizon added another "app" (Slacker Radio) to my Blackberry w/o my say so at reboot. Don't like they do that, but can forgive for this one. #
A true accidental business analyst here hoping for feedback on BA Boot Camp. Is it worth the investment? http://bit.ly/bzSWoc #baot #IIBA #
17 year old refrigerator slowly died this week. Hoping we can find same longevity in a current model. Wife thrilled. So is credit card co. #
Have decided to downgrade to OS X 10.5. Experiencing too many issues w/ spontaneous logout. Lots of other 10.6 users seem to have same prob. #
Um, yeah. That downgrade thing? Not gonna happen since the '09 unibody MBP's only run 10.6. Silly me. Haven't been paying attention again. #
Instead, disabling EVERY system add-on I can get away with not having. Lean and mean, baby. Lean, and, mean… #

Bummed to learn the NFL Experience isn't running this year. Worked on it from XXVII – XXXIV. Always got a kick seeing my work on pre-games. #
What are u more psyched for w the Superbowl? (via @eastd) Definitely the game. Should be a good one (finally). #
Any #Quickbooks and #FileMaker gurus know the best format to have someone export from QB for importing into a FM solution? Options needed? #
Just discovered {less} http://lesscss.org/ OMG. I'll never write CSS the same again… ever… #
Got a boiler-room head hunter type call looking to fill other positions at day job. Probably time to set my LinkedIn profile semi-private. #
Just received $25 "donation" (the max possible) for my humble little Mac utility. Always stuns me when someone chooses to be that generous. #

Just gave blood at Red Cross. Busy as heck, but always worth the wait to help the newborn littles with my special blood type. #
Using Chrome as my default browser for the past week. There are some things that bug me about it, but it could be the Safari killer for me. #
Toyota fleet manager called to buy my 2006 Tundra since they can't sell new models. Gave them ridiculous terms. Doubt I'll hear back again. #

Yasu 2.6.6 Released http://bit.ly/clrN9Y (via @yasumac) #
Don't see the fascination w/ the #iPad Too small (underpowered) for serious tasks. Too bulky for other mobile uses. Can't dog-ear a page. #
Bad news from the Doctor today. All those numbers that are supposed to be good to live long and prosper? Well, they aren't. #notakidanymore #
Found 38 updates waiting for Windows Server 2003 I updated about a month ago. 90% of them are Security updates. Hrmmm… #
An auspicious day. About to send day job #FileMaker 6 solution off for conversion by @Excelisys. It only took 5 years to get done too! #
