Crackhouse update

Here’s a recent picture of my soon-to-be studio. The sheetrock has been taped, pulled and primed; ceiling painted; trim installed around windows and doors; and floors sanded down and coated with the first layer of poly.

Microsoft Office Assistance: Paste Text Without the Formatting into a Word Document

Microsoft Office Assistance: Paste Text Without the Formatting into a Word Document

I recently stubled upon this fix for one of MS Word’s most irratating features…you know, when you paste something from a web page or another Word doc and it pastes it with the source document’s font face, size and color—rather than formatting it to match the document you’re working on. Typical of microsoft, there’s no easy way to set “paste as unformatted text” as the default paste action—you have to create a macro and then map the ctrl+v keystroke to that action…but it’s well worth the effort to cure this annoyance.

Happy Birthday, Gimli!

My cat, Gimli, is five years old today. Here’s my favorite picture of him. I was growing a pot of catnip for him on our balcony in Savannah and assumed that, since it was hanging about four feet off the ground, he couldn’t get into it… but clearly I was wrong.
