Ha! I uses "555-1212" at Smart and Final when they had their card, but using Jenny's number is funnier.

Yes, they are usually menu items that someone has vetted as GF. At some places, knowledgeable kitchen staff have put together GF items for us.

Your point is valid (and no longer racist if extrapolated — language is not the only issue). Servers and even managers do not necessarily know what gluten-free really means. You have to be careful. That said, they teach GF in culinary and hospitality programs now and we have had good success finding managers who…

+1 on "don't do this." Solid dollies are more or less $20 at Harbor Freight, Home Depot.

Anyone know of a way to log how time on a Mac is spent? I have a nephew who is veering out of control and want a way to know what he is doing. It doesn't have to be stealth — the relationship with him is healthy and it is something we will talk about. (On the other hand, it should not be obvious how to circumvent it -…

Yes, they finally came up with something more annoying than gallery view. The gallery view blackhole!

Either method is OK. As a host, you want to accommodate your guests. I usually come up with something everyone can eat (so the food allergy person doesn't feel like he or she is a bother. Example:If someone is vegan, I would make pasta with a tomato-basil sauce. If it's a wheat allergy, I would focus on meat or fish…

So you're using Hamachi to tap into you Windows server and streaming the music, yes? Hamachi is a VPN — you're basically making your home network available, right?

I hired one like you! He studied up on the language the week before the interview. He was honest aboutit but we could see he was smart enough to pick it up quickly, so I hired him. 9 years ago. He is still here.

Gag. Any user interface that requires you to perpetually describe an escape route ("Don't like the gallery layout? Click here to view everything on one page.") is inherently flawed.

One reason: Have laptop, not enough disk to hold all my music. With this app, I can have all the music I listen to and offload all my holiday music and such. The app makes it easy to manage what is local and what's not. Sweet.

Wow. Beautifully designed app that does something really useful, and does it well.

E-mail? What's e-mail? The young'uns barely use it. Guy on the radio said, "I have to text my kid to tell him to go read the e-mail I sent."

Unless they are way stupid, no guy ever asks a second time.

+1.

I think that what he means is that Wave required everyone in the workgroup to be a Wave user. Plus hasan important advantage that Wave did not — it automatically emails traffic to non-members.

Clever.

The killer feature I want in a calendar is scrolling month view. They all show a whole month — day 1 to 30 — and you scroll a month at a time. So at the end of every month, the user is clicking back and forth to took at next week. How about showing the current day in the second line? then we can see last week, this…

Nicely said. Sometimes the boss has a reason!

"make due"? You mean, "make do," but in this context, you may have meant "make doo." #corrections
