what? just because the creatures of the forest have endorsed his presidency? howard dean wishes he had that kind of support.

In a related story, Goodnight Moon has endorsed Gephardt, the Giving Tree came out strong behind Lieberman and the Cat in the Hat has thrown his hat in the ring for Dean.

Details at 6 on Sesame Street.

Here’s a better one: (as recently reported by the Washington Post)—seriously!!

Dennis Kucinich: Bush is a monster, and he shouldn’t have bombed Afghanistan!

Grandfather twilight: Uh…..Dennis….didn’t you vote for that?

Dennis: ………………….

Dennis: ………………

Grandfather twilight: Uh…..Dennis?

Dennis: Let me get back to you on that.

(later….)

Kucinich’s spokesman: It seems that Mr. Kucinich actually did vote for the Afghanistan Operation, because he was misled by the Bush Administration into believing that “military operations in Afghanistan” would not actually include the …uh….military.

Thank you.

End of Interview.

Believe it or not, this ACTUALLY happened.

Haa! Haa! Haa! Haa! Wait…Wait…Haa! Haa! Haa! Haa! Haa!

Seriously now, he might have a poi…Haa! Haa! Haa! Haa! Haa!

Let’s admit, ha-ummm, the man is a comic genius on so many levels. Why do I have a feeling that Big Bird is his Media Advisor?

i just saw a zogby poll that said 72 percent of 5-year olds were “likely” or “very likely” to vote for kucinich. pollsters were attributing the high approval ratings to the fictional character campaign, although some say his stance on milk breaks was also very influential to this demographic segment of the population. maybe i was too quick to mock him…

Was this endorsement supposed to help Kuchinich? If they wanted to be funny, they aren’t near smart enough to have come up with this.

Okay, I just told you what Apple wants you to look out for with window positions, but in the real world, not everyone uses the hiding feature of the Dock, and it is unrealistic to be able to predict where each user will place their Dock at any given day or how large they will have it. However, you can build a feature into your application that allows spacing for the Finder. You can give users the option of where to position their windows and what area of the screen not to cross. I know that BBEdit provides me with this feature, and I wish more developers gave me more control over my windows.

Adhere to Window Models. Document windows, Utility windows, Click-through, Layering, Drawers, Controls. How do users open windows, how do you properly title windows?
