Spam Musubi: delicious (or so I was told) Riding Horses Riding Horses (in color!) Up early, I did a bit more work. I got some coding done and got a build off an running before rushing out the door – I’m a bit curious to see if it worked, so I hope I can spend […]

Sunday 2009-05-17
No pictures: A pretty uneventful day! Still, imagine the pretty Waikiki beach, a completely pale white guy deathly afraid of a sunburn (so wearing way too much sunblock) and a cute Japanese girl wandering around looking for places to eat and trying to plan the next two weeks. Sunday morning I slept in, and then […]

Two beds for the newlyweds Awesome view from our balcony Big Wave Beer for Risa. Good stuff. When I had to work, I did a lot of it from the balcony, like this. It was great. I had arranged for a rental car, not a great deal, but a good enough one through National. We […]

Saturday 2009-05-16 Going to Hawaii
These are my notes from our Wedding trip to Hawaii. I plan to post up a blog post for each day and backdate them so they are on the correct date in the calendar. I also notice that I don’t really write interesting posts, and stick mostly with just a “what we did, what we […]

Review of the BBC Series Survivors (2008)
I recently watched the BBC Series “Survivors”, which is apparently a remake of a 1975 – 1978 British TV show. It came out in 2008 an concerns a virulent flu outbreak that kills off all but about 1% of the population. Put this on the TV and see if you can convince people that it […]

Setting up an AFP (Apple Filesharing Protocol) on Ubuntu and a Firefly iTunes Media Server
One of the things I’ve been meaning to do for a while is set up my Ubuntu machine to share out the music I have on it. I run Amarok on the machine and love it, but that doesn’t help when I’m super lazy and don’t want to reach over for the linux machine keyboard […]

Esther M. Friesner’s The Sword of Mary: A Sequel
I posted earlier about the book Psalms of Herod, and generally didn’t come away from it with a good impression. The main detraction is that it is not a self-contained book. It just ends, abruptly. It was just by chance that I picked up the sequel, The Sword of Mary: A Sequel (at least the […]

I’m still looking for a good replacement password safe for OSX / linux / windows (preferably one that works on all three.) I have been using Keyring (an open […]
