How cool is this? The Ambient Executive Dashboard is an analog device that receives a wireless signal to display the current status of three different elements, such as the value of your stock portfolio. It’s not as cool as it could be, because their business model doesn’t include just the hardware, but a monthly charge […]

I’m writing this on my parents’ bondi blue iMac, sitting in my Dad’s office, and watching flurries tumbling past the window. The trees and the ground both have a light white dusting, and baby, it’s cold outside. Winter has officially descended upon Ohio; I imagine Chicago won’t be far behind. Happy Thanksgiving, everybody. I’m grateful […]

Woo-hoo! Finalists will be announced December 1; I have a new website for the company currently coming together as […]

This was a great weekend, highly needed and coming at just the right time. I went to a party on Friday night thrown by a girl who went to Kenyon but who was in a slightly different circle than my own. As a result, I met up with a bunch of alums that I only […]

Wow. I just did a bad, bad thing. The local comic shop where I spend most of my Wednesday afternoons was having a big inventory blowout sale, and I popped by, fully resigned to spend a little money. Not a lot of money, mind you, but a little bit. I prowled the aisles. I gathered […]

So, I did it. I downloaded the archive of Tip of the Quill and cleaned out the spam comments. I probably didn’t get all of them, but nearly all of the 25,000+ spam comments are now gone, which shrank a 23MB file to a 1.4MB file. Now all I have to do is recreate the […]
