EOW (End-of-Week)
I’ve just been in heaven with some of the ads running on TV this month. First there’s the Apple ‘tank’ commercials declaring the G4 to be a supercomputer and the Pentiums to be ‘harmless’, then there’s the Gap ad running a cover of Depeche Mode’s ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’. If VW started running ad for a re-release of the Karmann-Ghia, I’d likely fall over dead on the spot.
I’ve finally got Newtvana to connect with the NCU package on my machine at home. The next step is to write a post from Newtvana and transfer it to Dwelling by hand. The step after that is to get the dial-up connections to work properly so I can surf directly from my Newton. Very cool. I’ll also pick up the VT100 emulation package so I can telnet.
I’ve been roped into the North by Northwest conference. D and E have been down there off and on the past couple of days. Today I was down there walking through the conference rooms and sitting in on the panel discussions. It’s interesting stuff, but I’m afraid this is going to be *yet another* direction that D’s going to take the company. Though I did get a NxNW arm band out of it. Maybe Amy and I will go out and see some music tonight.

Just got a call from Amy. Perhaps I’ll just work on some scripts tonight. (See previous entry regarding her Group.) 🙂
