Thursday, September 11th, 2003 · 20 Comments
Wireless Internet rules. This is my first time accessing the Web without wires (cell phones aside). It was a pain getting the PowerBook G4′s AirPort Extreme card, which I installed last night, to connect to my wireless network, powered by a new Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G router. But I finally got it to work. Here’s what [...]

Remembrance
Thursday, September 11th, 2003 · 1 Comment
My wife and I enjoyed espresso together this morning before she headed out to work. We kissed and she left for the bus. It was really a perfect moment. As Jen said not too long ago, “We should be making perfect moments all the time.” How true that is. Life is too short and we [...]

Live from G4
Wednesday, September 10th, 2003 · 2 Comments
Woohoo! This is my first post from the new PowerBook G4. The mouse and Airport Extreme card arrived yesterday, and the machine itself today. The LinkSys WRT54G wireless router I ordered from Amazon also arrived today. And so far, that’s where the only problem lies. The router itself works great — got the desktop PC [...]

Progress?

From the September 2003 Harper’s Index: “Maximum number of miles per gallon in Ford’s most fuel efficient 2003 car: 36 Maximum number of miles per gallon in Ford’s first Model T: 35″ The first Model T was built in 1908. Here we are in 2003 — nearly 100 years later — and we’re only getting [...]

My New Home
Tuesday, September 9th, 2003 · 1 Comment
“The homepage is dead, long live the Blog!” -Jordan Reed My site’s primary index template (index.php) now contains the following code (thanks, Ben, for pointing me to the PHP header redirect after realizing that a modification of my .htaccess file would not work for this tweak, due to site content leveraging the /index.php?id=XX format): <?php [...]
