Doctors fail four-question test

Thursday, March 1st, 2012

I deeply hope I’m being snookered, but it seems not. In a Journal of Medical Ethics article entitled “After-birth abortion: why should babies live?” it is suggested that babies are not “actual persons” and do not have a “moral right to life”. (I saw this here, which referred to here. I looked up the links above [...]

A year?

Almost. But I have renewed intentions. Stay tuned. :)

Do I really have nothing to say?

Well… I have all sorts of stuff to say, but no time to form it into moderately meaningful sentences. So here – if you want something to do – go check out my new YouTube channel!

Rough start

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

I’m only three days into three year and I’ve got mysteriously failing house wiring, a backed up main line, a flat tire, and a broken refrigerator shelf. Oh, and I slipped and fell on the stairs (and thus broke a coat hook). Sheesh. May I have 2008 back, please? It was pretty good. :)

Some folks are concerned that doing so will unleash tiny [...]

So then I went to Oshkosh

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

The EAA air show in Oshkosh in Wisconsin, that is. flyGarmin was going to be released to the public for the first time in conjunction with the beginning of the air show. Garmin had a Monday morning press conference announcing all sorts of stuff, and flyGarmin was on the list. I was pacing around the [...]

flyGarmin launches

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

I know that may not mean anything to you, but that’s a big project I’ve been working on at work for the last many months. It’s been a fun, complicated project focussed on making it a lot easier for pilots who use Garmin equipment to keep their equipment up to date. It let’s pilots enter [...]

OK, kids. I’m back.

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008

Life is settling down. A big web site release looms. WordPress 2.6 is installed, with whatever shiny goodness that brings. And I can blog from my iPhone. And I have things I want to talk about. Stay tuned…
