This battle pits The Fresh Market’s “Grade A Chocolate Milk from Jersey Cows” against my last post’s winner, “Mayfield Whole Chocolate Milk”. The Fresh Market’s foods are very often my favorites. They make some great cakes and brownies and I expected their chocolate milk to be a strong contender. They did not disappoint, their chocolate … Continue reading Battle of the Chocolate Milks – The Fresh Market
As you know, I like my chocolate milk. And with the end of my supply of Hershey’s Chocolate Milk Powder I’ve begun searching for the pre-made chocolate milk brand that is best of breed and is easily available to me. My other criteria are that it should have a smooth texture (not granular or “sugary”) … Continue reading Battle of the Chocolate Milks
*** Updated June 14, 2010 *** It turns out that the Procexp64.exe exists ONLY while Process explorer is running. Don’t ask me why. So my registry entry instead now shows: C:\Bin\Procexp.exe. Otherwise you still get the “cannot find” message. *** End June 14, 2010 Update *** I recently was introduced to Windows’ Process Explorer and … Continue reading Replacing Task Manager with Process Explorer in Windows 7 (64-Bit)
** Update June 27, 2010 ** Amusingly, the day after I posted this, the Amazon price for the physical book jumped up to $10.19 and has remained there ever since. Not saying it’s related to *my* post, but amusing nonetheless. Just saying to anybody at Amazon who happens across this, the thrust of my post … Continue reading Can’t Fathom why Kindle versions would cost more than Physical
Children of Dune by Frank Herbert. Yeah, yeah I know I’m *decades* behind the curve in only reading this now. I watched the Sci-Fi (now syfy – *groan*) Network’s version of this book (and “Dune Messiah”) while I was still reading the book. I recall really enjoying the movie years ago when it first aired. … Continue reading Children of Dune
I was exchanging messages with King and thought I’d post my thoughts on the software that I currently use on the BlackBerry. Hey King, I don’t use a lot of apps on my 9000 Bold BlackBerry, but I swear by Pocket Informant. It’s great for getting tasks on your calendar and I like its presentation … Continue reading My BlackBerry Software
We did some minor landscaping a couple of years ago but were never really satisfied with how the ground sloped from our new Red Bud tree. So Kim offered to create a mini retaining wall that resolves the issue of our pine bark washing away while also giving us a space to put our underused … Continue reading New Mini Retaining Wall
Had a great time at Michelle’s office party on Saturday. We did a quasi-Karaoke theme this time. “Quasi” since we realized none of us could sing so we didn’t bother with the monitor with words or silencing the actual singing on the music tracks. This works out MUCH better than regular karaoke! We even had … Continue reading Karaoke Party Pictures
This solution was posted by Doug Hellmann and worked perfectly for me, even when I reintroduced using “Sort Artist” to more finely control my podcast play order. To recap the issue check out this posting. A little more detail on the solution: Plug your iPod (presumably iPhone and any other iXXXX device) into your computer … Continue reading iTunes 9.1 – Playlist Sort order fix
Sorry to have dropped of the grid like that for a few days. I took this past Friday off for a “me” day and went cycling along the Silver Comet Trail near Hiram, Georgia. Around 23 miles into a 31 mile cycle something, I have no idea what, happened and I found myself dazedly staggering … Continue reading Back on the Grid – Post Bike Accident
