Frodo: I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
Gandalf: So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you were also meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought.
At the point where Gimli offers up his axe, isn't it lying on the ground in 100 pieces?

Yes the mac has some great ideas, but not all their "products" are great. As far as I am concerned every piece of their hardware I have purchased from them has had some issue. Yes they have great software, but they should have released that years ago on PC platforms. It's too far gone for me to switch back to crappy hardware, with a single-mouse buttons, limited reliability and nazi-like restraint on freedom to expand.
I much prefer how I can try different arrangements out on my PCs and get it to the right configuration for me, instead of buying a cookie cutter Macintosh a la Ford Model T.
I saw these being used as a desktop at work: Prototype charts. Interesting that a lot of people seem to be making "visibone" style cheat sheets for prototype and scriptacuous.
Aptana is a great plugin for editing CSS, javascript in Eclipse. Seems to work pretty good with prototype.
Just saw the News Radio clip where Jimmy James is giving a book presentation for his book which was translated into Japanese and back into English, Macho business donkey wrestler. It's the same kind of humor that you get when you use babelfish to translate to a language and then back to the original language. Like a poor replicator, it loses pieces of information along the way.
ToString is a simple eclipse plugin for Java Development. Although no-frills, it is pretty useful for auto-generating toString codes, for debugging, and logging helpful strings. I typically use this and then modify the code, inserting line returns, and making sure the primary keys are listed first in a typical order (objectId, relatedIds, all parameters, lists).
To use the plugin, you must be in the Java perspective, then select the class file (*.java) for which you want to generate the toString method. I haven't tried to run it on a whole directory - that would be a good feature.
