live long and effin prosper

Just saw the new Star Trek and in a word…awesome! I’m sure they’re already working on a sequel (prequel?) but if they’re not, they really should. As a total Star Trek nerd I thought a lot of the inside jokes were pretty hilarious. Not to mention the off the wall casting. Harold download wall e online wanted online as Sulu and little Byrd from Huff as Checkov. The only thing that sucked was the seats. Even though I was there a good 40 minutes before showtime I still ended up only 5 rows back and right on the end. I don’t know if you’ve ever had that experience but it can be pretty nauseating sitting that close in an IMAX theater. It was total pandemonium. The line wrapped all the way to the other side of the theater. Crazy. Other than that, I thought it was a great movie.

But honestly…can someone tell me what the hell Madea was doing in this movie…?

For the longest time I’d resisted wireless peripherals b/c I thought they were unnecessary battery hogs.  But I needed a new Mac keyboard b/c I got sick of my ancient PC compatible $10 USB keyboard that I’d gotten in college.  I thought about getting one of the slick Apple models but I just couldn’t get over the crappy key action.  Plus many online reviews confirmed my suspicions about key clicks not registering and the annoyingly low keys that made it too easy to hit one key when you meant ot hit another.  I [momentarily] considered this beauty

But no matter how much it had the desirable “clickety-clack” of old I just couldn’t justify $150 for a keyboard.  So far so good with the Logitech.  It looks slick and the mouse is ergonomically slanted just like I like it.  The keys have a good action and since it was designed as a “Mac” keyboard it has all of the right keys in the right places.  It also has additional hot keys for iTunes and iPhoto and the like but I’ll probably never be motivated enough to actually configure them.  Also the battery life (2 AA for the mouse and 2 AAA for they keyboard) supposedly last for 6 months.  The reviews seem to confirm it so that’s a definite plus.

Now if the Dell 30″ would hurry up and come down in price that’d be great.  Soon my office will be complete.  All I need now are some Threadless Bliks and I’ll be free to rule the world in style.  BWAH. HA. BWHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

stupid form data

Who among us has never accidentally typed the wrong info into a form? Forever more having to hit down arrow twice because you accidentally typed “uesr” instead of “user”. Well the nightmare is over! A quick googling produced an ever so useful blog post about Firefox Saved Form Data Frustration

Go to the form where the mistake is. Put your cursor in the text entry widget and hit down until the incorrect entry is highlighted. Now press shift + del … voila.

It was such an unbelievably awesome find I couldn’t not blog about it.
