Guess I ought to post, once a quarter, right ( Read more... )

I can't say how many forum threads I've been through about this annoying Windows 7 Aero lag. There've been a few suggestions, such as turning off transparency, or messing with the Magnifier. But, I think I finally came across the fix that I need. At least, so far I don't have the lag I was seeing before. What did I do? I turned off Windows 7' ( Read more... )

Just saw that my last post was in September. Wow. It's not that I don't visit this site, I do usually visit daily, I just don't post. Not that my life is terribly exciting. Mostly just work. Perhaps the most exciting thing is I built a new computer to better handle Photoshop CS5 ( Read more... )

Which is fine by me as it gives me time to get familiar with the Spring Framework and web services ( Read more... )

Still no login info yet. :P But, at least I was able to borrow someone else's login and go online. Hopefully it comes tomorrow ( Read more... )

Had my first day back in the workforce. Though, I really wouldn't call today a work day. I had been told to meet the boss in the lobby (there's security here) in the morning around 8:30. Well, I got there a bit early as I wasn't sure how the traffic would be. Well, I waited. Talked to the receptionist who called and left a voice mail with the ( Read more... )

Woke up last night craving fruit, strawberries specifically.
