All the Pages Are My Days - the first 12 years
the (archived) online world of Mike Rodriquez 2002-2012
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything Mac related and since I was busy over the weekend rebuilding my system, I thought I’d share what software I’m currently using. There was nothing really wrong my my old system, but the Mac’s flexibility in terms of booting from external devices makes it easy to try … Read more
For the 2nd year in a row I tried my hand at taking long-exposure images of the carnival rides at the Kansas State Fair. Though the rides were mostly the same as last year, I was able to get quite a number of photos that are quite different from the year before. As last year, … Read more

Today marks the 6th anniversary of All the Pages (are my days). It’s been fun and exciting to have been involved in something that started out as perhaps another techno-fad and which has now turned into a mainstream activity. One type of blogging that I’ve enjoyed over the years is travel blogging. I’ve sort of … Read more
Two things that I found useful this weekend when working on my Ubuntu Linux system. There are a lot of good Linux distributions to choose from; we use Debian at work, so Debian-based Ubuntu is a logical choice for home usage. Disable Desktop Effects If you turn on Desktop Effects and your hardware doesn’t support … Read more
This entry is to note the upgrade to MovableType version 4.1 as well as to test the installation.
