On the stairs
I stopped

And
in silence
I watched

Quietly
slowly
wholly.

As the people over at geekspiff point out in the Standards For OS X Themes On Intel Architecture article on their blog, the problems connected to theme generation for Intel macs will eventually be solved. I’m relieved that these guys are being more persistent than I about solving the problem. part...

Iridium is compatible with Mac OS X 10.4.5 and IridiumTunes was last updated for iTunes 6.0.2.

I have been thinking about this for a while now. And, it appears that the advent of the new iTunes look (which began in iTunes v5.0) has gotten many application developers to bundle their own iTunes-l...

Just some shots I took while walking beside the river. Good thing I had my camera with me 🙂

So… no phone call? Hmmm, I wonder if I should check the callback phone number they sent to see if there is any word on there.

“Welcome to the Callback hotline, press 1 for…”

*yawn*

*more drumming fingers…*

Oh! Wow! Really?

I figured they would cast me as old Burrows (s...

So, my friend was right. It turned out that Doll’s House was an all woman cast. So, I went to the Noel Coward audition. For those of you who don’t know Family Album, think The Importance of Being Ernest meets Waking Ned Divine.

The audition went well. I didn’t need the monologue. She just had...

Christian over at six27 made this wonderful Firefox skin that matches Iridium.

A few people had asked for a Firefox skin but I figured, why try to redo what Christian has already done, beautifully.

A friend of mine who is associated with the arts at Smith emailed me to let me know that she had thought that the A Doll’s House production was supposed to be an all-woman cast. So, I rechecked the ad that I posted here, it says nothing about that. So, I am planning on showing up tonight at 7 to fin...

If you scroll way back in this blog, you will find a very old post explaining why I chose b2evolution over wordpress. Well, it would seem times have changed. After having my blog hacked while running b2evo, I migrated to a static page design that I ran from my mac using either iBlog or macJou...

I am considering going to this audition tonight:

Auditions for A Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen and Family Album by Noel Coward MONDAY and TUESDAY, Feb. 6-7, 7-10 p.m., Smith College. A Doll’s House in Theatre 14; Family Album in Hallie Flanagan Studio Theatre.

And, here is the monologue that I...

Morning Pages and more Morning Pages…

I have been trying to restart this practice with varied amounts of success. I simply feel better when I do it. Often, if I have time, it leads to other types of meditation that also add to my day. Maybe, all of the organizing, sorting, and other physical an...

H Double-T P is a hack of Apple’s Google widget.

Personally, I don’t really need a widget to search Google. My browser has a search box in the upper right corner. So, having a widget to search google didn’t save me enough clicks to be of help.

BUT…
If I am in another application and my web brow...

Here are the current versions of Iridium:

• for MacOS X 10.4.4
• for MacOS X 10.4.0-10.4.3
• for MacOS X 10.3.0-10.3.9

• A DLTA for ThemeChanger & ShapeShifter

  Currently, Iridium is still PPC only. This is because ThemePark cannot read the Extras2.rsrc file unique to the new Intel-based Ma...

I’ve been a busy little techie recently. My writing has suffered for it. I’ve been preoccupied with rebuilding both this site and Iridium. When Apple updated MacOSX to 10.4.4, it had the side effect of uninstalling Iridium. This is because Apple made changes to one of the core files in Iridium Extra...

upon waking

with the warm glow
of you
utterly present

i sigh
a smile.

still listening

to your eyes

and
all their stories
that i wait to know.
