I’m 90% sure that when it’s time to buy my next desktop computer, I’m going to buy another Apple. I don’t know if all models are this way, but my PowerMac (which I bought used nearly a year ago) is just so awesome. The design of the hardware itself is better than any other computer… Continue reading I still love my PowerMac

a good day to stay inside
Here in Broomfield, we’re having a high temperature of 3 degrees Fahrenheit today. That’s darn cold! But I suppose it’s just as well, because today I had my gingival graft procedure done. That’s an outpatient surgery where they cut off flesh from the top of your mouth and sew it onto the gums somewhere. I… Continue reading a good day to stay inside
Wildfire Restaurant in Idaho Springs – thumbs up
Next time you’re passing through Idaho Springs on I-70, consider stopping at Wildfire Restaurant. Beth and I had lunch there on our way to Redstone for Christmas and we were both pleasantly surprised with how good it was. The restaurant was very uncrowded, and I’m not sure why. But the food was excellent. I had… Continue reading Wildfire Restaurant in Idaho Springs – thumbs up
“Mike in the Shot” is now on YouTube
I just uploaded the second Exploding Corpse Production, called “Mike in the Shot”, to YouTube. Of course, it’s low resolution and doesn’t look and sound nearly as good in YouTube format as it does on the big screen or even on a television monitor.

Globes [online] – Heads roll at Polycom This article about firing employees says, in part, “The dismissals were done using the ‘American method’, meaning by a short laconic telephone message telling the employees that the company is no longer in need of their services.” I wonder how that came to be known internationally as the… Continue reading Globes [online] – Heads roll at Polycom

westword.com – Restaurants – Sum More, Please Beth and I tried Super Star Asian at 2200 West Alameda last night. The Westword restaurant critic gave it very high praise, but I just wasn’t impressed. It was almost – though not quite – one of those experiences that’s so bad as to be laughable. For the… Continue reading westword.com – Restaurants – Sum More, Please
another one in the can
I’m a member of a little “club” in Boulder called the Fast Filmmaking Incubator. It’s basically a small support group for people encouraging each other to make short films quickly. Well, this month, the group chose an idea of mine to turn into a short film. I wrote and directed what I think will be… Continue reading another one in the can

The salad bar at the museum has really good fresh greens, an assortment of meat toppings for those so inclined, and things… Continue reading best salad bar in Denver: DMNS cafeteria
