Dear Steve
Mr. Jobs I must appologize for my ignorance and arrogance. I love my iMac, I really do, but I have always had problems with this or that. Not with the computer itself, mostly just connecting to my other computer. Well, today I decided to read the documents on your well design website. Side note: Your website is always fast, and reliable even though a large percentage of the Internet population downloads movie trailers, and now music from it. Kudos.
After reading few docs about connecting my iMac to the PC, I found it incredibly easy to do so. My sincerest appologies for ever doubting.
Your friend, and future 100% switcher -
Colin
Spirit and Opportunity
I am totally into the happenings of the Mars Rovers, to say the least. I find myself checking various news sources a few times a day to see what these little fellas are up to. In our new version of theubergeeks.net - I plan to have a page/section dedicated to the data that comes back from the ‘guys’.
I have comprised some links so far, but if you have any links that you’ve found interesting, please post a comment linking me to them. Thanks in advance.
The Goslings
I don’t think I ever got around to posting The Goslings even on the old TUG website. However, I recently installed Alex King’s WordPress hack called WP Photos, and I figured I should try it out on some real content.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. A side note though: I have been working on a new TUG website recently, that will change our direction quite signifigantly. Starting to get tired of a totally useless blog website. Figured we could still get our ranting done, while possibly doing some good. Expect to hear some news on this front shortly.
Quick Note: Lego Rover, WP update
Just a quick note: I want this, if you have an extra $89.99USD send one my way. And WordPress has released 1.0.1 - so I will be updating UberGeeks and begin preparing our site for final release.
Howard Dean Clips
Ahh man.. I had some good laughs tonight mostly at the expense of that ol’ wacky Howard Dean. Wow is this guy ever a whack job.. His “WE’RE GOING TO” rant is an absolutely classic piece of comedy. I have found some hilarious remixes of the speech with his now infamous .. YEEEAAAHHHH girl cheer at the end spliced throughout. The plain old video clip serves as a neverending laugh riot as well.
The Iggles Lose
Sorry for the delay on this post.. I had to take a couple of days to let the loss sink in so I could analyze my thoughts without talking too much BS.
The Eagles have done it again. I do not dare to say the dreaded C-word because I don’t think that they did. Well at least not the majority of the team. The defense really came to play on Sunday allowing only 14 points and very few rushing yards in comparison to their previous games. Brian Dawkins and Bobby Taylor both missed one play that resulted in a touchdown but that would have been negated if the offense at least scored one touchdown. I also refuse to blame this game on Donovan McNabb. He was playing hurt first off. Secondly the majority of his passes were on target but the receivers did not run their proper routes or they just bounced off the receiver’s chests. Actually on all 3 of McNabb’s interceptions and on Koy’s interception it was all because of badly run routes. I do place a lot of the blame on the receivers. I am a big fan of Todd Pinkston and I believe that in the final games of the season, minus the NFC Championship game, he stepped up and played a HUGE part in the Eagles success. But he played horribly on Sunday and he even admitted that this was probably the worst game he had ever played. Trash on the other hand I am not a HUGE fan of. I will be supportive of him because he is an Iggle, but I do not like him as a starting receiver. He is an above average kick returner so that is where he should be used, on special teams. I strongly hope and believe that Freddie Mitchell will take his starting spot next year because he came up huge all year and was the only receiver that showed up to play on Sunday. I also cannot take anything away from Duce’s performance (most likely last as an Eagle). He played with tons of heart and just would not be tackled. Donovan too played with much heart and I give the Eagles a lot of credit for overachieving this year when they could have folded after an 0-2 start and tons of injuries.
I am not half as upset as I was at the end of last year. Last year I fully believed that the Eagles had the Buc’s game in the books. I did not look past the Carolina Panthers that easily. In this crazy NFL with parity it is possible for any team to beat any other team when they come to play on Sunday. Thats just the reality of it. Only one team wins it all. Eagles were only 1 of 4 teams that made it to the Championship round and for that I am proud that they are my favorite team. They always have been and they always will be. But I hope that they will continue to FLY EAGLES FLY on the Road to Victory.
