Kickin my own butt!

Today, I am working in my home office as I normally do and as all of you know I live on my MacBook Pro laptop. I work my primary job, my DJing business and of course all my family stuff like this blog, pictures, videos and music on this one laptop. I try to remember to back it up once a week on an external hard-drive in the event something ever does happen to it I could quickly restore to another Mac.

As I was working and talking on my cell phone which was plugged in being charged, I went to the printer to grab something and the power cord of my phone pulled my full cup of coffee onto my MacBook Pro. As I turned around and saw what happened some not church worthy words escaped my mouth over and over again as I paniced and grabbed my laptop up and ran into the kitchen for a towel to begin soaking up the spilled coffee from my laptop.

I have pulled the battery from underneath to find coffee hiding there as well. I sprayed compressed air in every open compartment I can find in effort to push anything liquid out of an opening.

Its now laying on my desk on its left side in hopes that anything liquid will run out of it. Its been laying there for about an hour and I haven't seen anything laying on the desk that would signify coffee remains. I am going to wait a full 24 hours before I try to turn it back on to give it time to dry.

The good news in all of this is that it was still working great with coffee laying all over its keys and soaking into its crevices. I am praying like no other that she'll be fine and life goes on but with drinks at a safe distance.

Biker Zack Attack

The Schultz in the remaking of Wild Hogs

Sunday, some of us went to the Schultz house for a delicious BBQ of steaks and chicken and of course other healthy stuff.

Chip and Bob were tooling around the neighborhood with there Harleys which prompted the kids on pleading for rides (including Michele). Here is a quick slideshow on the fun.

Microsoft Office 2008 on the Mac

Now it is impossible to say that Microsoft Office is the greatest, must have, software package for any mac or pc for office work.

I was quite excited when the new Intel version of Microsoft Office was released that I purchased it very shortly after it was released. In some ways I am very pleased with this new mac version of Microsoft Office but in other ways VERY upset at Microsoft.

Let me begin by saying no other application on my system locks up or crashes more then once every three months and that is only with the same applications. Microsoft Office (especially Excel) crashes on a regular basis. I send the error reports but I believe they go in a spam folder at Microsoft. How much time are they spending on fixing any issues? I don't think any time since I haven't seen any significant updates.

So be warned that on a mac that your Excel will crash so often that it is deemed unreliable and I can not rely on it for anything but looking at an excel spreadsheet. I am forced to use Excel in my VMWare Fusion Windows XP session.

Happy Birthday Mom

Today's Your Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday to YOU!

MyWiseGuys Trailer Logo'd

I did some research and found I liked the work that Jack Ripper and Associates did for logo work. They work in Plymouth, which was about an hour and a half drive from Grand Blanc but they did good work.

Trailer has been picked up

I went to Prices Trailer and picked up my very new enclosed trailer and attached some okay pictures of it below.
