by patndoris on Jan.09, 2010, under Websites
I had never really been one to change my desktop wallpaper often. Generally, when I did, it was something obscure (and it usually lived on my desktop for ages at a time). But recently, I saw the NatGeo Wallpaper Downloader and decided to give it a spin.… more »
The Not So Itsy Bitsy Spider
by patndoris on Oct.24, 2009, under Websites, Science?
He really wasn't itsy bitsy. But he wasn't three feet tall whilst standing on his back legs and about to bite me with his mammoth fangs either. It was Thursday October 22, 2009. The boss and I had travelled downtown to meet clients for lunch. After a won… more »
