So, i decided to try a new trick when editing code and scripts and stuff. I’m now using a 20 pixel tall font in emacs and a 16-point font in VS.NET for all my editing. I figure, this way, when my stuff gets too big and complicated, I’ll be more forced to simplify it and make it actually fit on the screen. And I won’t have to change my display when I’m doing a presentation. The last reason is lame, but I’ll see how long I survive with mondo-text.
If you are one of the co-founders of the biggest software company on the planet, then you too could have have a $400K vintage Porsche 959 made street legal for the US.
Old advice is often the best advice.

Mandy’s birthday just passed (the 2nd) and for that most special of days, I gave her a brand new Garmin GPS V. She’s always getting lost (and I can’t blame her, Westchester and the surrounding area is crazy weird) and I thought it would be fun. I picked it up from Amazon and she’s loved it since it arrived. The real kicker though is GeoCaching. It’s kind of like a giant worldwide treasure hunt. People hide caches all over the place and then publish the GPS coordinates for others to find. Today, we went to the Headless Horseman cache in nearby Sleepy Hollow. It was the first cache we’ve actually found (we tried this one with chet and jackie, but couldn’t find it) and it was a ton of fun. We’re definitely going to keep hunting. More later…
