Posted on February 21, 2007 by Steve

Tonight’s wine: a 2003 Bulls Blood from Eger. Tasty red that gets much better the longer it sits out. Starts watery and fruity but not sweet. Only later does it linger. It becomes fuller, but doesn’t have the tannins of … Continue reading →

Giant Steps … (and more)

Posted on February 20, 2007 by Steve

Music 1: Almost done with Joe Satriani … that’s a lot of Joe I had. Bread: I made another loaf of the no-knead bread. Similar taste, similar density, etc. I let it sit in a warmer location this time, and … Continue reading →

Rosenmontag in review.

Posted on February 19, 2007 by Steve

Heroes: Great episode. It gave Ted a new companion and created a team out of a few disgruntled types. I just rewatched the Kelly Macdonald (aka: hot schoolgirl from Trainspotting; reporter in Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, etc.) episode of … Continue reading →

Bionic Eye could restore vision…

… so claims an article at NewScientistTech. First: what’s up with the mixed-upper-lower-case, no-spaces-between-words naming convention? NewScientistTech? Why not New Scientist Tech, or Newscientisttech, or New-scientist Tech? I have a thing for hyphens, one might notice.

Posted on February 14, 2007 by Steve
