Diary of a Network Geek

in Australia.

It's on the rise! Hey, aren't you listening?!

According to AustralianIT, the US computer industry is improving. They claim that there are more jobs and more money being spent on IT. Well, a little bit of money on a very few jobs. But, things are definately looking up! And, eventually, we'll actually notice.

I've been thinking about it...

I had a really busy weekend and, of course, missed a couple of shows that I tend to like to watch. So, that got me thinking about TiVo.... But, I don't like the idea of having to pay for a subscription. (Because I'm perpetually under-paid and, as a result, a tight-wad.) In any case, that made me think about a way to get around the fee. Naturally, I turned to the Internet for a solution. And, I may just have one: Knoppmyth.

No, really, that's what it's called!

Cartoon Network has put together the "Ultimate Wishlist" of stuff from their network. And, man, is it ever the ultimate!! Ever wish you could have Space Ghost's desk? It's in there. How about Dexter's Lab? There, too. Bascially, every cool, wild, or crazy thing from Cartoon Network's in-house shows is on sale here. Of course, they're all expensive, but, if you have the cash, it's worth it!!
All this and just in time for Christmas, too!!

More creative blogging.

No, really, an actual gift.

No, really, there's a scientific study!

Right here on MSN Health they say that dark beer is good for you. Or, at least, better for you than the lighter beers. Something about the "flavonoids" that make it dark help prevent blood clots, which help prevent blood-vessel related problems. (This is also how that whole red wine thing works, too, by the way.) So, what the heck, it's Friday, go have a nice, dark beer. For your health!

If you're a tech head, like me...

Orrin's at it again....

It's here!
