I am in love with my Macbook that I bought a few months ago on grahams recommendation; it is so much fun to use that half of the time I feel like it is a toy. Last night, I was pretty bummed out because my toy broke. When I left the lab yesterday, I banged my headphones that were plugged in while I was picking up stuff from my desk. I didn't think anything of it until I busted out the computer...

OK, I broke down and posted all the remaining segments of A Smoky Mountain Christmas at once, because people on YouTube were bugging me about it. Also, as grahams points out, the clips could get pulled from YouTube at any time. You can find them all there if you go to "More From: khruntpig". But if you want to keep seeing the clips one by one, advent-calendar style, just watch this space...

Some time ago I was tapped to list ten things that are making me happy, and it took me a while to get around to it, sadly. The Red Sox are winning! Also I am developing a blog-based crush on Kevin Youkilis . The Patriots are winning! Also, every time we watch the Patriots play, Kris and I get into a discussion about what would happen if I married Tom Brady (would my superfan mother survive the...

So! This weekend I went to New York, and I auditioned for Jeopardy! I had fun! Sunday I took the bus down to New York and went to see the Radical Lace and Subversive Knitting exhibit at the Museum of Arts and Design. This was cool, and I am glad I went. Some of the stuff I thought was a little blah and obvious, but I loved the knitted snakes, for some reason, and lots of the other stuff was very...

"Once tagged by this entry, the assignment is to write a blog entry of some kind with six random facts about yourself. Then, pick six of your friends and tag them; no tag backs. This explanation should be included." 1. I was born two months premature, and spent those two months in the hospital in an incubator. When I was taken home, my heart would routinely stop and I had to be resuscitated by being...

So a few weeks ago, when I was bitching about work not allowing us to install Firefox on our computers, grahams pointed me in the direction of Firefox Portable, which you can run out off of a flash drive or (in my case) out of My Documents. Hurrah, my browser problem was solved! But then I found I could not play somewhat-illegally-downloaded episodes of This American Life and Doctor Who, because...
