Geocaching is a neat thing to do for fun! Wouldn’t mind trying to track down some objects hidden out there. And of course, Hawaii has some beautiful trails to check out. And then there are the Travel Bugs which are like electronic dog tags that track where an object has gone. Very cool.

Well, it seems like with the release of the Star Wars box set (I hope it doesnt force you to watch the ‘new’ footage) that it is promoted in every form of the media. Well, it got me thinking about a cool Del Sol I saw featured in Wired a while back.

So the trip is booked - we’re goin to the Big Island Sept 26-29. And we’re gonna take a ride up to Mauna Kea while we’re there. Still have to research if it’s possible to see active lava or not… And how dangerous it is. Don’t want to end up as a headline “Two Oahu Graphic Designers Lost in Lava Fields”

One of our favorite streams to listen to while working on graphic design is Armitage. More Anime tunes than you can shake a stick at, and plenty of variety to keep the creative juices flowin.

Last week the Additive graphic design crew went to see Arturo Sandoval. wow, what an amazing musician! He played the trumpet, horn (english?), piano, keyboard, drums, some kind of mouth harp, as well as scatting! And he was amazing at ALL of them! It really blew us away - definately one of the best performances I’ve ever seen in Hawaii!

Well, it looks like Mauna Loa is gonna be getting ready to pop some day in the next decade or something… I’ll probably be moved away from here by the time that happens, but it’s still purdy cool. I might be headin over to see some volcano action soon - would love to see lava!

I live right on a freeway onramp and I occasionally hear guys yelling n hootin as they accelerate onto the freeway. I always wonder what the hell the deal is with that? Oh - And Harleys and cars with loud coffeee can mufflers are the loudest things out there by far!

I uninstalled UControl and switched to DoubleCommand. This gave me the functionality of swapping the Enter key to the Command key at the same time as making the F Keys work normal. One other thing I turned on too was Shift-Delete for forward delete. Now configuring DoubleCommand is easy - but not GUI based. You have to add up some numbers and write them to a text file. I didnt have a calc available, so I just started typing my addition into my Google toolbar in Safari. I knew Google had some neat functionality, but I was curious, so I searched for my addition - and hey presto! It did the math! Neat.

Dungeon Master spells are really handy. However, if you don’t own the manual, it is good to reference this website to know how to cast them. Zo Kath Ra!

UControl is a good util for Ibook owners. It lets you remap the Enter key (weirdly located on the right of the Space Bar where Command key should be) to act like the Command key. (As well as other stuff) Other similar utils are DoubleCommand.

After a full day of monkeying around, I finally got Dungeon Master running on my Apple. I’m running an Atari ST emulator called Hatari which is a little slower than NoSTalgia, but since Hatari is open source and more of a coders emulator, it lets you remap the Mac-ST keys. This came up because when you play DM (Dungeon Master) on the ST, the movement thru the levels is really clean with Left,Right,Forward,Back, as well as sidestep Left and Right using a block of six keys. (Insert & clr home turn you)
Well, on Powerbooks and IBooks there are arrows (good for sidestepping), but no turn arrows, which makes navigating mazes and fighting monsters really difficult. So I made a key remapping file, to make the QWE/ASD keys be my nav keys. Works great!! I (actually my g/f and I) already wasted a few hours playing! FUN! Now to make the Function keys work normal instead of hotkeys for volume / brightness….

I used to spend way too long playing a game called “Captive” on my brother’s Atari ST. Another good one was Dungeon Master. The game interfaces on both were excellent - and combined with a good diversity of monsters, weapons and depth of levels, made for games that really kicked ass. I also loved to brainlessly play Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands and other games like R-Type. My days of running pirated / bootleg software and coding began at a young age of 12 with that Atari ST.
