Internet security suites software, argggh
0 Comments Published June 26th, 2006 in Software(t) , Computer security(t) , Computer systems(t) , HOA(t) , Law Office Ideas(t)PC manufacturers insist on inflicting swollen and faulty security suite software on unsuspecting customers. Software to protect you from all evils sounds like a good concept, right? Good idea, bad implementation from Symantec and from MacAfee. One of my first setup acts is to uninstall suite software – generally it’s just a trial anyway. MacAfee […]
I love maps! Since I’ve been playing with Squidoo, and have an Arizona series of lenses going, well one thing leads to another … so I created a Maps of Arizona lens at Squidoo. The address is www.squidoo.com/arizonamaps. I decided to focus on different types of maps with only one or two per category. Any […]
Benjamin Franklin arrives at Squidoo
0 Comments Published June 19th, 2006 in Blogging(t) , Squidoo(t) , Benjamin Franklin(t) , Reading(t)One of the books that inspired me as a youth was Benjamin Franklin’s Autobiography. As a kid, I found reading it to be slow going, and raised my eyebrows at some of his moral posturing. But I was impressed by the drive and accomplishment of the man.
I’ve been attracted to any story, article, web site […]

Hydroculture - How to grow houseplants in water
The pictures today are placeholders that I’ve copied from the web. Will replace them with personal hydro plant pics over the next few days.
About 15 years ago I was visiting a lawyer client’s office in Jersey City, New Jersey. He had some plants sitting on the register by a window. One caught my eye because the top was covered in little pebbles instead of dirt. I complimented Alan on the plant and he explained that it was growing […]
We took another “development hike” this morning. Miller Road runs north/south between Scottsdale Road and Hayden. The paved road ends just north of Pinnacle Peak Road and that’s where we started. We hiked generally north and generally up washes. The first part of the hike we were between developments on the left and right. When […]

A Squidoo lens focused on the HOA (Homeowners Association)
0 Comments Published June 5th, 2006 in Blogging(t) , HOA(t) , Squidoo(t)I’m intrigued by the idea of lenses. They are, in effect, a summary type of web site. A lens is a single web page. Each lens focuses on a specific topic. It might be an introduction to that topic, and as such, a great place to start your research. The lens might a person experience […]
During the cooler times my hiking buddy Ed and I enjoy hiking the nearby trails and mountain areas. We enjoy the scenery, exercise and looking for interesting artifacts of mining, Native American settlement, etc. It’s getting hot now, so we have begin looking closer to home for hiking opportunities. There is urban hiking, which is […]
