Mountains Masterpiece

Judy’s artistic streak continues with this masterpiece entitled “Mountains”. It’s a transcendental expression of the magnificance and grandeur of nature juxtaposed with the ethereal preponderance that characterizes the fragility of our existence. Or something like that.

I’ve been looking forward to the fruits of the TiVo/Netflix partnership for some time now so this is kind of a bummer. From Reed Hastings, Netflix CEO, during their earnings conference call yesterday: Well, DVD and High-Definition DVD show great promise. The near term for downloading is not so bright.

Kicked Out

Our landlord informed us today that he is planning on selling the house we are living in (good timing on his part IMO as the housing bubble is showing strong signs of deflating).

The Making of V4

Version 4 of RohJuh.com ended up being a much more time-consuming endeavor than I ever imagined. With development work progressing at a fairly consistent pace over nearly 9 months, what began as a medium-scale project soon mushroomed into quite a large undertaking, and I ended up spending about quadruple the amount of time and effort [...]
