Stream

Posted on 2015-05-302015-08-27 by Mark Boszko

I had a conversation with my friend AAl on Twitter, regarding 2,051 emails in my inbox: It’s a stream from which I pluck the occasional tasty salmon. It’s not all Things I Have to Deal With. So… it’s like The Den. Filled mostly with stuff you don’t need, but maybe one thing might be useful?…

It always pays.

I realize this is a very Southern Maryland-centric request, but does anyone out there possibly have an audio or video recording of the ads for the supermarket McKay’s Food Store with their crazy earworm of a jingle? Extra bonus points if you come up with the late-80s/early-90s TV ad with jingle that consists entirely of…

Alcoholic Drinks Banned from Apple Messages!

Posted on 2013-10-292015-08-15 by Mark Boszko

Ahh… I’ve always wanted to write one of those link-bait post titles. Now at least I have a fun excuse. I noticed today that in the “Smiley menu” in the Messages compose window, that the alcoholic beverages have been edited out. Normally, in the Objects section of the emoji menu, the order goes Baby Bottle,…

New Digs

If you’re seeing this, it means you’re seeing my new, migrated site. I realized that I wasn’t really using any of the extra features that Squarespace was affording me, and while they have given me great service (and I love their stats package), it was time to minimize my outlay to my various service providers….

Roger Ebert dead at 70

Posted on 2013-04-052015-08-15 by Mark Boszko

He wrote reviews for The Chicago Sun-Times for 46 years. I grew up with him and Siskel on PBS. He was the critic I trusted the most. I will miss his passion for what he did. I will miss his writing, ever entertaining, even when he hated the film. I will miss his rice cooker…
