There is a bug is in viewing css style sheets with the Firebug plugin when you have a installed version of Firefox that was updated from v1.5x to version 2.x.

To fix this simply delete the following files from the “components” folder in the  main Mozilla Firefox folder:
inspector.dll
inspector.xpt
inspector-cmdline.js
Then reinstall Firefox 2.x OVER the previous install – you do not have to uninstall Firefox.

For some unknown reason Microsoft’s Windows Media Player’s 10 & 11 do not show CD Text from audio CD’s. This plug-in will solve the problem. Download the file, install it and all is well:

I added a new photo gallery to my Digital Photography site: Tiff Nature Preserve – the pictures are from a hike I took with some of my kids in October of 2004. At the time there was a wild bee hive on one of the paths. A week after I shot these photos it was destroyed by vandals.

This photo gallery was created during a summer & a fall trip I took there with my wife Carol. Cabic Pond is very scenic and peaceful. To top it off the pond is stocked with large mouth bass – what a fishing spot.

Caught this sunset picture outside my office window today. Second nice sunset in a week. Not bad for the dull winter weather we have been having.
