Hah!

Kudos to ideaphile Jamie for the link.

Mac360 brings us The Top 10 Free Software For Mac OS X.

I might need to pick up CyberDuck, as right now my idea of FTP is Dreamweaver, a massively incorrect use of a tool.

I also remember seeing some sort of note about MAMP yesterday…. I might need to get that one so I can develop on my laptop without using the live server. That’d be good, right?

Swiped from Fark, a link to Tampa Bay’s Channel 10’s News list of the 5 things you should do in case of a hurricane. (Wow, that’s a mouthful.)

Thing the first: It’s not so much that Davan and PeeJee appear to be fighting (LGT image as I can’t figure out the permalink structure) that sets my hair on edge, as Randy’s comments at the bottom of the comic:

Twenty-four hours from now, all the concerns, problems, and worries will seem so small

Last time all my concerns, problems, and worries felt so small was five days ago when I was on the beach. The time before that was my uncle’s funeral. Somehow (maybe it’s the obvious fighting) this bodes more toward the latter than the former. Maybe that’s just my paranoia kicking in.

Thing the second: I had never considered using a speech bubble inside a speech bubble as a form of emphasis before. I learn more from the Foglios each time I read.

Thing the third: It’s the little critter all the way to the right in this Creatures in my Head that totally cracks me up, because it looks like he’s chewing on the big creature’s arm. How these don’t get posted to Cute Overload every single day is beyond me.

Get a Mac ads always make me giggle There are some new ones out that will make you giggle too.

When I was a kid (like 15 or so) I dreamed of having a house just big enough for me. I don’t think we could live in one now (in fact, the 1400 square feet I have now is juuust a touch too small - or rather, not designed quite right for our needs) but damn, they’re cool anyway. Check out the video if you want to actually see one.
