Today’s challenges March 13, 2008 7:03 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily LifeToday I must get two children to the doctor’s office, get a complicated API to actually deliver data from a service provider rather than delivering an error message, finish half an inch of change requests to a website, and do a horde of paperwork including my 2007 taxes all due tomorrow. Somewhere in there I need to work in a nervous breakdown and winning the lottery.

Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Sex, Software, Technology, Touchy SubjectsI didn’t have anything like the online dressing room when I was a teen! I would have never left the house!
That’s probably not a worksafe link.

When will this day light savings madness end?! March 12, 2008 9:11 am
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, Of Being DadWent to bed at 1am (that used to be midnight) with the intention of napping a couple of hours, rose at 7:08am and by some miracle got three children to their bus stops in time and one kindergartner (may have a tardy) driven to school right at the bell.

Posted by utterz in : Daily Life, Dharma, Pets, PodcastingDear Knoxville Pros March 11, 2008 5:29 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Daily Life, Politics, Sex, Touchy SubjectsSomewhere on Reality Me or Domestic Psychology is the story of my indiscretions. Yes, I picked up a prostitute once and it became public. Well, I cannot pick you up anymore*. Unlike Dick Cheney’s wife, and Spitzer’s wife, my wife will not stand behind me.
What’s the difference between a computer consultant and a prostitute?
Slate asks why is prostitution illegal?
*I can’t find the post relating the story, so for those that missed it, I was working late downtown once. It was about midnight when I pulled up to a traffic light at Summit Avenue and Gay Street (thank you Knoxville for allowing me to use the words prostitute and gay in the same post) in the Jeep with the top down. A lady walks up and asks for a ride. Being a nice guy, I let her in. Half a block later it has become blatantly evident that I was being very naive and I was politely telling her to get out. I suppose, for the sake of knowledge, I should have at least asked, "how much?"
2commentsLoren Feldman Portraying a “Nice Guy”! March 11, 2008 4:30 pm
Posted by Doug McCaughan in : Gadgets, TechnologyOh, and he interviews Peter Semmelhack of Buglabs…
Note: The first time I saw Loren Feldman was on Seesmic and he hooked, lined, and sinkered the whole bunch into a series of angry videos that brought down the servers. I don’t usually get into this negative humor but I found it very amusing because in the first few seconds of his video I spoke aloud that "this guy is playing a character" and it was entertaining to see so many people invest themselves and their emotions into responding to him without seeing through the ruse. I could be wrong. Perhaps Feldman is just an angry ass. I have since seen him engage many of the tech celebrities such as Robert Scoble and their banters are amusing because reports have it that in person they are chummy. Many of us portray ourselves transparently on the web/blogosphere exactly how we are and who we are. Loren Feldman made me rethink this as perhaps Blogosphere1.0. As Hollywood loses ground to independent entertainment producers on the Internet, will Blogosphere2.0 be more people putting on masks and portraying characters online? As people in real life declare, "I saw you on the Internet and I can’t believe…" will you be able to respond, "oh, that’s just a character I play on the Internet!" That’s going to really screw with companies relying upon Google for background checks!
