  • Christmas in October

    So I finished my second Jack-o-lantern this evening.  I needed the boy’s help because we had to clean 3 pumpkins to make it work.  Our project for this year — a snow man.  Since we don’t get a whole lot of snow in the Willamette Valley, we decided to improves. 🙂 –TR  

  • Let the Halloween Pumpkin carving begin

    Halloween is just a few days away and this year, I’m getting the pumpkin in right under the wire.  The first jack-o-lantern done tonight was for my boys.  Here’s a picture: For those that don’t have a 6 year old (or a person that acts like a 6 year old), the picture is of the Pokemon…

  • MarcEdit 5.1 Updates

    It’s been about a month since the last update, so I’ve got a whole slew of changes to note with this update.  However, before noting the things that are fixed, I should note the things that are enhanced.  Over the last month, I’ve written ~10,000 new lines of code to continue to work to make…

  • Travel karma

    After spending two weeks running around Vermont hiking, biking and finding a little time to speak to friends at Middlebury College and the Readex Institute — I’ve apparently had a little too good of a time because when I got back, the cycling gremlins jumped all over me.  Monday — my first day back —…

  • Travel fun

    I’ve been fortunate to get to spend the last few days in the beautiful state of Vermont.  This isn’t my first time here, nor do I think it will be my last.  I’ve been here since Friday…visiting friends in Middlebury, though I will find some time the first week of Oct. to do a little…

  • MarcEdit 5.1 issues to be fixed tonight

    I found some issues while doing some work on the application last night.  A few issues that will be corrected tonight: MarcEditor Most Recent list — I’m getting an array out of bounds error because I didn’t check the number of files being saved.  So, it’s possible to blow this array boundary.  Oops. When I…

  • Riding in the dark

    Today marked the first day since last winter where I road home in utter blackness.  Generally, this would happen much later in the year but I hung around Corvallis a bit later than usual and started for home a little after 8 pm.  While it’s dark at 8 pm, it gets really dark after 8:30…

  • 3 years old

    Yesterday, Nathan officially hit the big 3 and we had a small party at home for him with his special cake and presents.  For him, 3 years old will be a big deal.  He always wants to do the same things that Kenny does (like YMCA sports, etc.) and now, at 3, most of the…

  • MarcEdit 5.1 COM update

    I’d forgotten to add two functions back into the COM object: the MARCSplit and MARCJoin functions.  I’ve rebuilt the program and pushed the changes forward.  If you use 4.6 and make use of those functions (or use 5.x and wanted to know where they went), download the update at: MarcEdit51_Setup.exe.  The updated API docs are…
