Media, modernity, and microcode from your average farmer-turned-programmer. PRE-ORDER BULL SPEC #1. Well, fingerpicking work was severely hampered when I completely jacked up my thumb playing basketball. I got through another go-round of "Carousel" and the piano version of "This Old Road", and some more piano covers. Links to this post. Where do people find the time. Links to this post. Putting yourself out there. Well, I used Writely. To put a few songs worth of lyrics. To edit several pages and get eve...

When Alpacas Attack! - quindo
http://quindo.livejournal.com/10505.html
October 10th, 2008. 2008-10-10 11:58 pm (UTC). 2008-10-11 01:19 am (UTC). Knitted cat sounds HORRIBLE for your allergies! I had no idea Alpaca had such dander; definitely something good to keep in mind if I knit for people who have dander problems. 2008-10-12 10:16 pm (UTC). 2008-10-11 04:26 pm (UTC). Mental note: stay away from any clothing articles containing alpaca. I had no idea that cats and alpacas were in cahoots together - sounds like alpacas are the undercover allergy agents for cats!

On the Muppet Show tonight! July 28th, 2008. Er, last week rather. FOUR. Muppet sketches appeared last week on the web. Yes,. All four are musical numbers, hearkening back to the days of the classic Muppet Show. My favorite is Ode to Joy. Even though I think it's at least double derivative now (it's hard to keep track of these things on the intarweb) between this guy. And the Weezer "Pork and Beans" video. Everything's better with Beaker! Here are links to the other three - pick your own favorite. Powere...

Twisty Stitches: First Hat
http://twistystitches.blogspot.com/2008/06/first-hat.html
You are trapped in a maze of twisty stitches.but you really don't mind. Wednesday, June 4, 2008. However, I did. Swatch on straight bamboo needles, then knit on circular bamboos, before I learned you're supposed to swatch on circulars if that's what you're going to knit on. Furthermore, after I frogged my first attempt, I switched to metal circulars. Could that have something to do with it? And what about the uberpoofy brim? Wow - it looks great!

Media, modernity, and microcode from your average farmer-turned-programmer. PRE-ORDER BULL SPEC #1. The tools for the commons are ready. When getting ready to launch BULL SPEC. There were a lot of questions about the tools available to use in producing the e-books and audiobooks. Could I afford top end audio recording software, professional desktop publishing software, vector graphic software, and so on; were the open source versions really ready? The open source tools are more than ready. The tools for ...

Media, modernity, and microcode from your average farmer-turned-programmer. PRE-ORDER BULL SPEC #1. Whew I haven't played the guitar this much since October. I played until my fingers hurt.

Media, modernity, and microcode from your average farmer-turned-programmer. PRE-ORDER BULL SPEC #1. A story's trip through the Clarkesworld submissions queue. On a dream-like what if? Hope, tempered with since they are so responsive, at least Ill be able to submit it somewhere else when they reject me, but still: what if? I finally submitted a ruthlessly-pared-down-from-5000-to-under-4000-words story (the paring down alone took a month to get to a place which made me somewhat happy) to Clarkesworld.
