THE BIG WHEEL

Dave gathers reactions to Smart Tags.

Chris, a guy who doesn't hesitate to use phrases like 'Slicker than snot on a doorknob', wrote an excellent article for A List Apart, Much Ado About Smart Tags.

From Jeffrey, I learn that the Men's Wearhouse will not let me in as a Mac user who also uses IE5. Of course, I had to write George and tell him to wear this.

DON'T HATE ME

Don't hate me because I'm in Block 50. It's true. I looked at the PG&E bill and I am now officially in the coveted Block 50. But still will participate in Roll Your Own Blackout tonight.

Oh, and they have a category for General Blasphemy ("material that is considered evil when viewed through the eyes of God"). Nice they have the direct line to the eyes of God. Hep me Jesus.

WDG's Is there a way to prevent getting framed? Here's Tanya Rose's Unlawful Linking and Framing.

Keeping track of the dungeon I'm building with FileMaker Pro 5.5. Waiting with baited breath for my FileMaker Mobile to come in. D&D FMP database on our Palms...oooo, dangerous combo. Should be very handy as Honey and I don't want to drag 20 years worth of binders, notes, and books up to Manteca next month for the game.

Never particularly cared for Eric Clapton on his own, but Jack Bruce is a great bass guitarist. 2/3 Cream.
