It came! (Warning–boring geeky stuff)
Filed in Musings, March 13, 2007, 11:33 amMy new HD came by Fed-Ex today and I can’t wait to install it. Maybe my HD/computer saga will finally be over and I’ll be able to get back to what I need to do on my desktop rather than try and do everything on my laptop.
The saga, you ask? Well, after about three years [...]
TamPonification
Filed in Musings, March 12, 2007, 10:57 pmSomething you don’t usually think about is how many pads and tampons a woman’s shelter goes through each month. Well, even if you aren’t, Seventh Generation is. TamPonification is a site where, through your virtual donation to the state of your choice, a pack of organic cotton tampons or chlorine-free pads is donated to a [...]
I could kill her
Filed in Musings, March 11, 2007, 10:49 pmI could kill my friend Jen. She introduced me to herdealnews and it’s dangerous. It’s like Slickdeals but with better formatting and geared toward women. Great. Another deal site to taunt me.

Anyhow, I stumbled upon a thread titled “Deleting Cached Pages from Google” at wordpress.com [...]

Filed in Musings, March 9, 2007, 11:36 amI’ve been having a hell of a time getting everything in my theme and the new WP to play nicely together. Throw in the various plugins I use and I’ve had to do some annoying tweaking including doing editing, adding and deleting straight in the database. WTF? I’ve learned some things but it annoys me [...]
Go straight for the good stuff
Filed in Musings, March 8, 2007, 10:10 amFound a neat site called Google Image Ripper. On it you can do a Google image search and instead of bringing up the traditional results page, it brings up only the images in their full glory. I’m not sure what that would be good for outside of making it quicker to steal and/or hot-link an [...]
I want my $2
Filed in Musings, March 7, 2007, 7:41 pmI’m getting a bit irritated now that it’s been about four weeks since the IRS said our refund was going to be delayed. I called the call center on the day our refund was due in our account after checking the Refund Status page. According to them, our refund is being delayed because of a [...]
