Apple Computer puts enough confidence in their technical support personnel to set up a Genuis Bar in every company store, saying “Our Geniuses will answer all your technical questions, troubleshoot problems, and explain it all in language that’s easy to understand.” That’s quite a big […]

Hopefully, my non-stop Delta flight from London will get me there next Saturday afternoon, where I'll pick up an Alamo rental car and drive to Birmingham that evening.

Blogging sabbatical, digging up bones

It’s that time of the year when I spend four to six weeks doing family history research, which takes nearly every minute of my spare time (nights and weekends). I normally start in mid-December, but this year I’m running a little behind because I’m trying to learn a new Macintosh genealogy program, iFamily for Tiger. […]
