Came into work this morning and my local mysql grant tables were messed up. Had to reset my dev mysql passwords. Weird…
Just found out they’re making a movie of The Informant, one of my favorite books: http://bit.ly/nmKhz
RT @howardlindzon The death of the quick flip http://bit.ly/x1Yb is a great read … I like the mini-bubble thesis
Bootstrap ‘n Flip? « Five Years Too late
So there’s an open question in my mind of whether there was simply a mini-bubble where Google and Yahoo were buying startups as features in 2005 and 2006. But generally speaking, none of this has made money for the acquirers (who themselves are hurting now)
Taking my girlfriend to have her wisdom teeth out. Glad I’m not going through that again, though lots of ice cream for her this weekend.

Chipotle just opened down the street from my office, and they’re giving out free burritos today. I’m afraid to go there though due to lines.

After getting completely frustrated with the new iMovie for editing a screencast, I went back to the old one: http://bit.ly/G4A8
Why is it such a pain in the neck to create screencasts? I dread each time I have to do one.
Ugh, yet more snow on the ground. Glad I don’t have to go anywhere today, but not looking forward to repeating all the shoveling I just did
Ran specs just before 12am & clock rolled over right when testing some dates. Lots of errors that fixed themselves by running again.
I’ve been working on an update to our invoice tracking system that’s going to save me at least 10 hours a month. Can’t wait to finish it.
Been experimenting with Prawn for the last couple days, and I’m really loving it. http://bit.ly/11J4k
