Lance rocks!!

Posted in Sports at 10:12 pm

Wow! Lance Armstrong is absolutely amazing! And the fact that the French hate him so much makes what he’s doing in the Tour that much sweeter.

Unless something major happens, he will win a record 6th consecutive Tour de France this coming Sunday.

Considering his story, what he’s overcome, and the scrutiny he is currently under, makes his accomplishment that much more amazing. Do not forget that he has an incredible supporting cast in his teammates. They are doing a hell of a job protecting him and excelling in the team trials.

Props to you Lance! Well done.

Ok, poker is a fun game, but good grief!! Why in the world the sudden explosion? Every freakin’ channel I turn to there’s a poker game going on. And it may be fun to play, but it ain’t all that exciting to watch.

Here’s the thing that sent me over the edge. These people actually want poker included in the Athens Olympics. You’ve gotta be kidding me! This has to be one of those “Signs that the Apocalypse is near” topics.

How does anyone else feel about this?

So what do you know about Web Standards? How important to you, in your design work are those standards?

Here’s an interesting article at Design by Fire.

It explains why you should care and what the standards will mean in the very close future.

The reasons just keep coming…

Posted in Computer at 7:28 pm

The reasons to NOT use Microsoft’s Internet just keep piling up. In the last few weeks they’ve issued at least 4 patches to critical vulnerabilities with their OS and tightly integrated web browser Internet Explorer.

The vulnerabilities can now be “injected” from web pages…that’s scary folks. Everyone knows not to click on e-mail attachments that have come from unknown sources, but now you can be redirected to an infected web site and these keystroke stealing trojans can be downloaded to your computer without you even knowing about it. Read here.

MLB All-Star teams…

Posted in Sports at 2:53 pm

Well, the teams have been selected, except for the Final Vote where the internet community has a say in the last roster spot.

What are your feelings about the lineup possibilities, who shouldn’t have made it, and who got left off.

The Beltran situation blows my mind, but I don’t know that there is an easy solution.

And what about the outfield of 500+ HR hitters…amazing!

Thank you for our freedom!

In my opinion, we Americans don’t realize just how good we have it so today, please just take a minute and be thankful for living in the greatest country in the world…and if you don’t think that’s true–get the hell out!
