You know, some days, I really feel like I'm an example.
Sadly, it's often a bad example, as in "Well, at least you're not as bad as him." Or, "Hey, it could be worse! Look at that guy!" Or, even, "Thank God I didn't make as big a mistake as he did!"
I think today was one of my "special" days.
Ah, well, at least I serve a purpose, even if it is only to be a warning to others.
That is all...
Well, I survived my trip to the sweaty, stinky armpit of the South.
Yea! Geek Games!
Looks like I'm hitting the road again. Damn.
If you have dogs, you have got to see this!
I hope I haven't posted this before.
Either way, I don't care enough to either search or change it if I have, so, there you have it. As you regular readers may recall, I've been working on setting up a Linux laptop since forever. That's still going on, but when I get it done, I'm going to need a laptop case or bag in which to carry it. And, that's where this week's link comes in: The Top Ten Coolest Laptop Cases.

Okay, what does that alphabet soup mean?

In this case, they took a pretty standard mini system and converted it by adding a larger harddrive and a Personal Video Recorder (PVR) card. The system runs Ubuntu Linux and MythTV, which are both available free from the Internet.
She made me pie.
I mentioned off the top of my head the other day that I liked apple pie. I explained how my sister used to make me apple pie for my birthday every year when I was in college because she was the only family near me at my birthday and I loved apple pie. So tonight, when she came over just to hang out before going out of town, she made me an apple pie. Crust from scratch with stars on it and covered in course sugar and as sweet as anything can make it.
