Big Lebowski, Extremely Short Version


This is not for those who are easily offended by foul language. You have been warned. On the other hand, this pretty much tells the entire story in just over 2 minutes, so could save you a lot of time if you haven't seen the movie...

Typo Plugin for Bookmarking Services

I've updated Pascal's bookmarkit typo plugin so that it's compatible with v 4.0.x of typo. Pascal's orginal post on the bookmarkit plugin is here. You'll need his v. 0.2 tar file (which is compatible with the 2.x typo series) to get the images, and then unpack my tar file into components/plugins/sidebars.


The irony is that this blog is not a typo blog :) Enjoy.

AppleCare: The Amazing 48 Hour Laptop Repair

Forget for a moment that the laptop shouldn't be broken in the first place: it's really my fault for buying a bleeding edge first generation of a new processor product from Apple (the timing was right and I needed a laptop -- I've learned my lesson).

Last week I got an AppleCare tech on the phone who said I would have to ship them my laptop, but that they would send me the box to ship it in and that the whole thing would probably take 5-10 days.

I got the box on Saturday; I shipped it Monday morning; I had my laptop back by 8am Wednesday. Literally: I was without my laptop for less than 48 hours. That is just totally rocking and totally unexpected customer service.

Great job Apple!
