Reason No. 9 why a 20" Cinema Display is Good
The latest reason why a 20" Cinema Display is cool it that on a weekend morning, my three year-old, Matthew, can watch Max & Ruby in Quicktime Player on one half, and I can check the news and add to my blog on the other half of the display. That's what I call 'quality time'.
Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people. --Jawaharlal Nehru

The Sweetest Place On Earth
We live in Hershey, Pennsylvania; the 'sweetest place on earth.' The best candy maker in town (in my opinion) is not Hershey's, but our neighbor, Dale Ebling, who is kind enough to share his chocolate creations with us on occasion. Thanks, Dale!

How to keep your five year old busy for a whole hour
Give him/her your digital camera set to standard quality so it takes about a bagillion pictures before the card is full. Oh, and jury rig a dropped camera bungee cord to reduce the likelihood he will drop it on the floor. Don't reduce the likelihood to zero, though, because it's only real purpose is to convince your spouse it's okay for a five year old to walk around with a digital camera taking pictures. With the free time this buys you, spend some time on the web looking for the camera you would like to replace the one you just kissed goodbye.
It is no profit to have learned well, if you neglect to do well. --Publilius Syrus
