Trevor’s Bike Shed has posted a nifty script which ejects your drives before sleeping. This should come in handy for disconnecting my Time Machine volume before going to work in the morning.
I was shocked to see that McDonald’s has a corporate podcast. Unsurprisingly, the series is called: “The McDonald’s You Don’t Know.”
The scintillating topics include such favorites as:
- Less Is More: Sustainable Packaging at McDonald’s
- JPMorgan Conference Webcast
- Well Seasoned: In the Ktichen with Chef Dan Coudreaut (Yes, they have a typo)
I’m McLovin it!
How to fix Word 2008 crash on quit. (Office 2008 Mac)
1. Delete or move ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Normal
2. Delete or move ~/Library/Application Support/User Templates/Normal.dotm
3. Delete or move ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Word Settings (10) (Or the whole folder)
To properly set up the “Normal” template in Microsoft Office 2008 Mac, you must first know where it is. The location has changed!
The new 2008 office location is:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/Office/User\ Templates/Normal.dotm
And the template must be saved as a “Word Macro-Enabled Template” (.dotm).
Hope this helps!

Maybe I don’t feel so guilty now after adding both Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. soundtracks to my iTunes library.
