Sounds like there is about $600k worth from Atsion to Chatsworth ;).

If you let me come, I will take my vitamins first, and bring extra Depends ;).

It's just a trip report and a bunch of pics. Hijack away :).

Haha, that was worth a laugh. I like the way they eventually yank him out of the frame.

Buying black is like saying "I like to beat myself with a chain for fun." ;) Anyway, anything that won't catch a fingernail will rub out with enough work (or money!) if you decide to sell and want to clean it up. Most brush scratches aren't permanent. Good advice on the lighter colors...

Yeah, when he said "winch truck" he meant the kind they use to pull dump trucks back up when they flip over ;).

Right here, Bob... http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=39.764643,-74.675145&spn=0.006202,0.011598&t=h&z=17

Headed out today with my buddy Jack and his dog. After poking our noses up Moores Meadow Rd. a little we headed back to Carranza, went south a bit, and hung a right on Glossy Spung. From there we drove down to Hampton and took a right on High Crossing, heading down toward the bridge near where I...

Haha, looks like fun :). And that piece of equipment looks like a two-barrel deck-mounted bilge pump.

I've got 6 inches of mythical snow on my driveway so far :). Hoping it proves easier to shovel than the regular, non-mythical kind.

Great pics, and that last one is, as Bob said, a knockout. If you've got a hi-res version I can snip 1920 x 1200 pixels out of it would make a great wallpaper.

I agree, certainly with the second point, and largely with the first. In any case, it's all the stuff below Win32, and 20 years of evolving BIOS standards, that make it tough to compete with the platform. I'm one of those who think MS cannot be deposed from the desktop, but that the desktop will...

Figured you were in the business, Ben. You do too good a job with this site. Anyway, while some desktop apps might move into the browser, many of the more complicated and powerful ones will not. In general people overestimate the importance of end-user applications in the stickiness of MS's...

Yeah, no need for an Apple-MS war in here ;). But it's worth pointing out that Apple's share value has come from their success with consumer devices, not much from system sales. Nothing wrong with that. I don't disagree at all with respect to what usually happens to large companies, but...

I certainly don't see the attempt to acquire Yahoo as embarrassing for the company. Gates is still very much in charge of the overall vision, and he articulates the strategy quite well here: http://www.news.com/Gates-explains-why-Microsoft-needs-Yahoo/2008-1014_3-6231341.html?tag=ne.fd.mnbc...

Nice pic!

Totality was very cool. Haven't seen one of these in a long time. Nice, clear red ring, and the moon was very eerie. You can imagine our hunter/gatherer ancestors being completely freaked :).

I don't know about you guys, but we got really lucky up here. Skies cleared off about an hour ago, and we have a great view. About 4/5 of the way to totality now.

I agree: if there is anything the state as an entity should be apologetic about, it is our continued moral reticence during reconstruction. Enoch, I think you may in fact have run into the prototypical New Jersey slaveholder. We never really had the vast plantations that required tremendous...

Looking back over time you can view these as the fits and starts with which any great transformation occurs. One step forward, and two back; that kind of thing. Is the lack of faster, more deliberate action something to be apologetic for? In an abstract historical sense, certainly. We can always...
