A Wasted Single Finger Salute to the RIAA

Got Waste up and running last night. Now beginning to connect to my buddies, sharing our music, like we've always done, first we copied tapes, then CDs to tapes, then CD to CD, now we can copy tape to CD, tape to tape, CD to tape, CD to CD, CD or tape to MP3, then we can share them securely via Waste. Isn't this a wonderful world? Get Waste Support HERE.

BTW - The wife got a Dell Digital Jukebox for her birthday, I've been ripping all of our CD's down to MP3 format, I'm somewhere between 1/3 and 1/2 of the way through and stand at 3298 songs ripped, using up 11.7GB of storage, all ripped at 128K. Damn, that's a lot of CDs to rip.

Fun in the Drive-Thru

Well, I'd love to add some more, like:

"May I help you?"
"What would you recommend today?"

"May I help you?"
"Yes, I'd like it all in large bills ($10 withdrawl at the bank)."

More good fun here...

For a country that closes at 8:30 PM, Canada sure is touchy...

Seems that after the SARS outbreak last year, Canada paid a bunch of money to have Conan O'Brien do his show from Toronto last week. Seems to be one problem though, they didn't bother to watch the show first to see what kind of humor was featured on the show. Now they are all upset and want a refund because Triumph the Insult Comic Dog made fun of them and their French speaking ways. What a bunch of babies, my favorite quote from the article:

"It is never our intention to air programming that offends any of our viewers," the network said.

Yeah, never offend any one, any time. Might as well just project the color bars all day long then.

Great news about Herbal Viagra!

It just might kill you. Why is that good news? Because if it kills off enough people, the SPAMMERS will run out of the gullible marks to buy their products, and go away.

Damn, it's been a long week.

Lessee - Exchange Server update - There is a tab in the Active Directory Properties of users and objects that is the Advanced Exchange functions. It has a checkbox for "Hide this address from mailing lists". This box should really say "Hides this address, mailbox, and any hint of e-mail functionality from every other program or service on the system." By checking this box on the admin.svcs account, Backup Exec would not backup e-mail boxes, and we could not setup an Outlook account to check e-mail for this address.

Had a tech meeting on the fourth. It's amazing that they keep us employeed here with everything that we do wrong on a daily basis. Oh, and we got a dress code update - no more jeans. Gotta go buy some Dockers that fit this weekend, all my old ones are way to big since the coma.

Went to two different doctors on Thursday. Got a passing grade from my internalist on my general health and recovery. Went to the neurologist later for some fun tests that involved shocking me and inserting 4 inch needles in my arm and hand. Looks like I will be having surgery to repair the damage to my left arm from when I was in the hospital. Took the boy to the doctor in the afternoon, he got his 2 month shots. He was very unhappy, and has been living on Tylenol since the visit. I hope he gets to feeling better soon, hate to see him feeling bad.

Spent today working with another tech on a new Exchange 2003 Server, doing support calls and other fun crap. I love my job!

Still playing Project Gotham Racing 2 exclusively on my Xbox, but haven't had a whole lot of time to play, there have been too many other fun projects on my plate to get time to sit down and play for a while.

Got the Phillips Pronto TSU3000 remote programming almost done, but the programming keeps growing, I can't seem to stop adding new features as I think of them, it should kick ass when I am done.

Oh, and I got a letter from the Home Owner's Association, got to mow the grass and edge this weekend. My fun is never done!
