Anybody who knows me (and them) knows that I had to do the following. Consider it saving a short snapshot for posterity, since they’re 10 (Surf, dog) and 8 (Bandit, cat).
Or like Linus Torvalds once said:
Only wimps use tape backup: real men just upload their important stuff on ftp, and let the rest of the world mirror it.
Whoever said cats and dogs hated each other didn’t know these two. Surf’s been taking care of Bandit since the day he was born. And yes, the snoring is coming from Surf. :)

In the spirit of my other Linux install screencasts (1, 2), I took a lot of screenshots while installing Ubuntu 6.10 Desktop on my 12″ iBook G3, and made this 2+ minutes video out of them.
It hopes to demonstrate how easy it can really be to install Linux, and to demystify some of the FUD around this great platform. Show it to your family and friends during the Holidays, and we might just end up with a few more Linux users in the new year! :)

And to conclude the series, here’s part 4 of 4 of the fan video I filmed at the 2002 Slam City Jam, in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Audio: Straight Up, licensed from ibaudio.com.
Probably not the best one in the series (my faves are #2 and #3), but I had some raw footage left. :)

This short video shows how to build a very basic puzzle, with and for [your] kids, out of any non-toxic scrap wood and just a few simple tools.
It takes less than 15 minutes, not including drawing time, and the kids love it.
My kids and I have made dozens of those in the last few years, some a lot more elaborate than what is sampled in this video, but the basic concept and techniques are the same.
And the first person to laugh at my narrative skills gets hit on the head.
WHAAACK. Dam’it, I laughed at myself… ;P
