Here is the video I wanted to see last week, although it doesn’t show what I’d hoped.

October 8th, 2007Your Code is Suboptimal
October 7th, 2007
This relates to Eric Sink and SourceGear, makers of what are, no doubt, fine software tools … I just haven’t been able to evaluate them. If you need configuration management/revision control software, check them out. We’re in the market for it at work, and have already evaluated some competing products. Currently, I’m waiting for sufficient space to be made on our Windows 2003 Server system so we can start evaluating SourceGear’s products.
I can’t quite pull off the Evil Mastermind threatening glower, though. Perhaps if I had my own personal disintegrator …

So you ride yourselves over the fields
October 2nd, 2007Last weekend was being promoted as the time for peak color in the high country, so Marion and I decided to take advantage of it. We drove up through Boulder into Nederland, where we caught the Peak-to-Peak Highway to Estes Park.
Here are a few photos I took along the way. I tried to get thumbnails linked to full-size photos, but the WordPress implementation 1&1 uses appears to only give me a thumbnail option if I use a smaller file to begin with.
We’ve also had our first snows in the high country:
