	The clarinet report (edited) http://doctroid.livejournal.com/100758.html music, lafayette concert band, clarinets, bands Edited the next morning to clarify a few points. I did it again. Bought a clarinet on eBay. I can't possibly pretend I need another one -- I have three soprano clarinets already, and I've only used one of them the past several months. This one I bought pretty much out of curiosity. It's a Mazzeo system clarinet; I've never seen one in th More... Published by :doctroid 2007-11-21 05:57:32.0

	The thrill is gone http://doctroid.livejournal.com/100439.html astronomy, comets Well, I've seen Comet Holmes again, tonight. The sky was clear enough in the early evening to get a glimpse -- an hour later it had clouded over in the east. But the comet was a very different sight than it was ten days previously. It's gotten bigger, which makes it more diffuse, and the Moon is in the sky, washing everything out. So what was, through bino More... Published by :doctroid 2007-11-21 05:30:04.0

	Beast one http://doctroid.livejournal.com/100252.html brachiosaurus, dinosaur, knitting Finished, first of four dinosaurs: From this pattern. It was decidedly a learning experience. I learned, for instance, how to knit in the round on double pointed needles, and why not to use metal DPNs when starting with six stitches cast on. I learned to look in m More...

	Namesake and nebulosity http://doctroid.livejournal.com/99846.html galaxies, astronomy, comets We haven't had many clear nights lately, and on what few we've had I've forgotten to go out and look. It was mostly clear tonight, though, with a day old moon, and the next several nights are forecast to be cloudy. It was, in other words, possibly our last, best chance. Kenny and I went out in the driveway with a pair of binoculars and saw Comet More... Published by :doctroid 2007-11-11 03:09:32.0

	It's fixed http://doctroid.livejournal.com/99785.html macbook, computers, applecare Yesterday my MacBook's power adaptor seemed to die. No light, and the battery wasn't charging. This morning I called AppleCare, and they suggested doing a reset of the laptop's power system. (Unplug it, remove the battery, hold the power button down 5 seconds.) Now things are working again. So now you don't have to call AppleCare if this happens to you. More... Published by :doctroid 2007-11-07 16:10:40.0

	Conspiracy http://doctroid.livejournal.com/98930.html television, stargate, library Heather and I have been watching Stargate. Never having seen SG-1 on TV, we started borrowing the DVDs from the local library system, and more recently from Heather's mom. We missed a bit of Season 1, though. The Syracuse central library has Stargate SG-1, Season 1, disks 1, 3, 4, and 5, but not disk 2. The Baldwinsville library, part of the same system, has Stargate SG-1, Season 1, disks 1, 3 More...
