This morning I launched Bipolar Lives, a blog that discusses the broad issues and personal challenges of living with Bipolar Syndrome.

USCIS, Green Cards, and Greed: Your (United States Federal) Government at Work
In: Canada| Immigration| Life| RANTING

A little close to home…
In: smp
17 Aug 2005In Lisa Haneberg’s article, I fall into the first category.

Wow. Apple thinks ahead.
In: smp
6 Jun 2005From MacRumoursLive:
Catch up – two major challenges – making OS X think on intel procs. Every release of OS has been compiled for intel x86 for the last 5 years – cross platform by design.
Wow. Wish I could have snuck out those binaries.
