• Re: Wish List for 2008
  I updated again for the upcoming spring birthdays. :)
• Re: Dead Wipers
  $235 for a new motor and four trips back (once for a re-repair) and they seem to be working again. I think the driver's side wiper is going too far over and *thunking* on the post. Maybe a 5th time back will be the charm.
• Re: Christmas 2007 Wish List
  I updated the list with a few more items.

• Updated the Email Server
  I've been using ASSP for while now as our email proxy service. It's kept us clean and clear of tons of spam while OS X's email service has been filtering out the viruses thanks to ClamAV. The server project over this holiday season was to disable OS X's ...

• Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog
  I'm a little late to the party on this, but I'm glad I discovered Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. It seems during writers strikes, Joss Whedon of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly fame is not idle. Done on a shoe-string budget and released on the web ...

• Fan Edits
  Recently, I've been checking out the fan edit community. These are fans that are otherwise unhappy with a movie in it's original form or even a Director's Cut. These folks love their movie of choice and re-edit it such that it's seamless, professional, ...
• Phish Scams & User Foolishness
  We've had a ton of Phishing Scams at work. These are attempts by people to get your user name and password so that they can, in turn, use your credentials to send out more phishing scams and spam. Usually an official looking email is sent out to users ...
• Can you *chomp-chomp* help *slurp-smack* me?
  This one has been a long time coming for the Gripes list. Exactly what makes people think that I want to hear you eating food while you're speaking to me? At least once a week I answer the phone to someone eating their lunch in my ear. This has to be one ...
• Drobo
  As an early gift for my birthday I received a Drobo "Storage Robot." This is a little USB 2.0 storage device that holds up to 4 hard drives, but is seen as only one drive to your computer with lots and lots of storage. Plus, it has redundancy so ...
• Roomba Revolution
  Based on a trustworthy recommendation and some research, we purchased a Roomba, made by iRobot. It is quite possibly the most useful gizmo we've ever purchased. This little robot vacuum is a wonder. It is about 15" round (a good size dinner plate) ...
