Abby & Knock
October 18, 2004Lao and Harlan’s adorable Abyssinians stayed over a couple times in 2000 or 2001.

Flash Projector Tools
October 18, 2004Read moreToday I was looking into tools for stand-alone Flash applications. I’m dumping the notes here… will clean them up later with my thoughts:
SWF Tools PROJECTOR Tools listing http://www.swftools.com/tools-category.php?cat=290

http://www.screentime.com mProjector $299 Claims to use http://www.screentime.com/software/mprojector/docs/mWindow18.html
SWF STudio V2 itself is fairly cheap, and explicitly says it supports Z-order. And it’s made in america!

James
October 18, 2004James, sadly, passed away late this year of old age and other complications. He was an awesome cat. When I was crashing in Cambridge at Alen’s place, his cat kept me company while I worked.Read moreThis picture is from when James stayed with me years later in New Hampshire, while his owner was away on a trip.
