Autumnal Equinox
Today marks the beginning of one of my two favorite seasons, Autumn—or Fall, as it is commonly called in the United States. Living in Florida makes the season a very, very mild one, with temperatures still quite high (it will be 90°F today), yet it brings the solid certainty that summer is being left behind.
Join me on celebrating the Autumnal Equinox today, at 04:21 US … ⌘ Read more

Microsoft and global cybercrime
From The Official Microsoft Blog:
On June 19, Microsoft filed for an ex parte temporary restraining order (TRO) from the U.S. District Court for Nevada against No-IP. On June 26, the court granted our request and made Microsoft the DNS authority for the company’s 23 free No-IP domains, allowing us to identify and route a … ⌘ Read more
A Christmas tree small story
Last year we had a plastic Christmas tree. Wife was not happy. This year she wanted a real one, so this morning the child and I went on the quest of getting it. Most families in the States will get a Christmas tree right after Thanksgiving, but I am used to get it the day before Christmas. Of course, if I wait for that day there will be none left. So it is today, or never1.
We purchased one, which is already soaking … ⌘ Read more
Chuck Lorre Productions, 373
At the end of each episode of “ The Big Bang Theory” there is always something witty printed, that passes by so fast you can not read it. Today I saw, and remembered, “ … the prophet did not answer right away ….” I looked it up, and this came up.
A young woman stepped forward from the throng and asked, “0’ great prophet, tell us how we might find love that is unconditional, unwavering and unending.” The prophet d … ⌘ Read more
A month
It has been a month since our Jean passed away. Times flies, yet it seems like it was yesterday. Nor a day has passed by without coming to mind, one way or another. We miss her like we did the first day. I truly dislike Warcraft, but I am keeping her toons alive, and advancing. Somehow playing something she dedicated so much time on, where she had so many good friends, gives me the feeling she still lives. Quiet mornings, though … ⌘ Read more
eBay sues Craigslist
Referring to an eBay Press release:
Tainted Love – We are surprised and disappointed by Ebay’s unfounded allegations, which came to us out of the blue, without any attempt to engage in a dialogue with us.
Coming from a shareholder that views craigslist as a prime competitor, filing suit without so much as mentioning these assertions beforehand seems unethical, and … ⌘ Read more
Why?
While visiting South today I found, once again, this quote that I like so much:
The first question which you will ask and which I must try to answer is this, ‘What is the use of climbing Mount Everest?’ and my answer must at once be, ‘It is no use.’ We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver, not a gem, nor any coal or iron. We shall not find a single foot of earth that can be planted with crops to raise food. It’s no use. So, if you cannot understand that there … ⌘ Read more

Family sticks together
Back in 2001 KM was born. Orlando was his birth place and all he knows to be called home. It is where his house is, in which he freely roams his domains and plays with his toys. It is also where he fights his father on endless battles. Nana lives there so does uncle Thanh, and cousin Alyssa, Kevin, Tommy, Jason… along with thirty plus family members. He knows where choo-choo train, Target and [Chuc … ⌘ Read more
On vacation now
Today I enter a mini-vacation. There will be a lot of things to do next week, the most important of all will be to get the house ready to sell. Yes, you are not having any vision problems, you are reading well: we are selling the house. Interested?
The main thing we need to do is clean it, that’s the main goal this coming week. There are a few little things that need to get fixed, but they are minor details: some painting here, retouching there, nothing major.
Also, even though I will be o … ⌘ Read more
