Mike is making me jealous- his fancy Nikon takes much, much better macro pictures than my Kodak- one of the reasons I was interested in a digital camera in the first place.

I helped my neighbor Matt troubleshoot his network connections last night. The network people wired the wallplate connectors correct to the T568b standard, but then flipped all the wires at the box. Good to see I wasn’t the only one to make this mistake (although I didn’t do it on all of my wires.)

Damn the torpedoes, Full Speed Ahead Dept.: Even though this Thursday will make five paychecks promised but not delivered, I found a Scout in Annapolis this morning that sounds like it’s in good shape. I put an email in to the seller and I’m going to follow up with a phonecall in an hour or so. What the hell am I doing?
Update: She wants $2700 for it. With engine issues. Erick says the body is rough, and would need to have all fenders and quarters pulled. Hmmph.

Well, the teaching gig I was looking into did not work out. There just wasn’t enough time to absorb the curriculum before start of classes, and the schedule could have been tricky as well. I’m disappointed but hopeful that something will come of it in the future.

Stumbling around today, I found this link back to the Cluetrain Manifesto, something I had looked at a while back but forgot about, from Doc Searls’ site. Which leads me to Corante, an interesting newsfeed for tech info.
