So that annoying splash screen is going to stick around until the end of the week . . . because I think it looks pretty cool.
Or maybe I’ll take it down right now.
The e-mail consensus is that I look angry . . . which is kind of a drag, because I thought I looked tough.
Grr!! Check me out! I’m tough! Yeah! Tough! Grrr!!
Does anyone buy that?
Didn’t think so.
Today, I shot an interview for this thing that’s going to be on ABC during May Sweeps, called “Our Favorite Stars: Then And Now.”
I guess I’m one of their favorite stars, or something. It’s pretty cool. 🙂 I got to talk about WWdN, recall some memories about Stand By Me and Star Trek, and talk about my books. We shot it at the ACME Comedy Theatre, which is cool, because ACME will get some national TV exposure out of it.
If anyone saw me on TechTV’s
Yeah, it’s been awhile since I put together a machine.
But you know what? It’s really easy. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
Heh. “Do it.” Cool.
Chris DiBona also did a review of Red Hat 9 that you may find useful. I haven’t gone to 9, yet. I’m still 8.0 with about a thousand apt-rpm additions. I’m terrified that upgrading to 9 will break my box . . . so I’ll upgrade the machine Anne and the kids use first. 😉
Anne’s friend Ashley is in town for the rest of the week with her insanely cool kids. We’re going to be doing the Los Angeles tourist thing until Sunday, so blogging will be pretty light, if at all.
Several people have asked what happened to comments. Sadly, they’ve been disabled until I can figure out a way to ensure that people can act like mature adults, and not mouth-breathing idiots. Several readers have chosen to join the Soapbox community, and there’s cool commenting going on in there.
How about a Thought For Today?
