It does not take much

A while ago I discovered the work of Merlin Mann. I’ve shared some of his more interesting things with your here and there too. He’s got it figured out and I’ve learned a lot, tried a lot and strived to be better because of him.

And now he is one of my followers.

You Have to Suck

We know I’ve got a solid man-crush on Merlin Mann, right? This is one of the reasons why.

I aspire to one day to be half as smart as Merlin. And, if you listen to this 27 minute talk you’ll know why.



The Sunday Post #65

So many things going on over here, but none of them terribly post worthy. So instead I have decided to punt.

The Sunday List Post

  • New favorite app. this week; Trashit for when you just can’t get the trash emptied, no matter what. Yes, I tried that. Tried that too. This worked. And free.
  • Another cool one Hazel. Nifty app that lets you set up rules for folders and it does stuff. Check it out.
  • Merlin copying the w(t)f video hour, and doing a much better job.
  • Even still, the Wordpress HTML editor still can’t post embeded video. You would think that would be fixed by now.
  • I’m excited about iLife ‘09.
  • Last week I upgraded the Storm to OS version .85. I think I’m going to take it back to .75 when I get a chance.
  • I seriously need to reinstall OS X on my laptop.
  • I hate the show The Gilmor Girls with the heat of 101000 suns
  • It’s amazing how much of a time suck having a job is. Where is my money tree?
  • The house I wanted to move into has been rented. I was not happy about that
  • Diggin’ the new job. Diggin’ the fact that I don’t have to spend 4 hours in my car every day getting there and getting home too.
  • I wish I had build-real-stuff-skills. Dad’s shed is turning out very nice and I can only sit back and watch it go up.
  • Taking a photo of myself every day is fun.
  • Need to rework my gym schedule. Get up at 5:30a or get home at 9p? Tough call, I know.
  • Scales disappoint me, especially when they are telling me I weigh at least 10 pounds more than I want to.
  • I would never pay $6k for a laptop. Even if I had a money tree. Even if I had 2.

Especially the Gilmor Girls one. Oh my god people! How can you watch that crap?
