As I’ve mentioned …. I’m cleaning house here. And part of that is going through the stacks of [unlabeled] CD-R discs around here. It’s amazing what I’ve got feretted away on some of those CD-R’s. Tonight, I found some long-lost image files taken over Christmas, 2003!

There are several ways to deal with this, but perhaps the easiest is to use this site to automatically create [...]
Although our home phone number has been on the Do Not Call Registry since its inception, we are still getting calls. The refinancing industry is the present culprit, with calls in the past month from two different mortgage companies. Maybe two isn’t as bad as the many we’d probably get if we weren’t [...]

There are two new movies in theatres this weekend — The DaVinci Code and Over the Hedge. If these were your only choices for entertainment this weekend, which would you see, and why?

is the economy really so bad that the manufacturers are justified in charging the same price for sweaters and blouses as in years past, but only making them with 3/4-length sleeves? can’t they afford that extra few inches of material???
