Have you ever had to do a ton of paperwork on a Sat.?
I did today and I hate it. Mind you it had to be done but what a pain.
This is worse then raking leaves.

High tech Lightbulb?
OK, A high tech lightbulb?
Well to me this is amazing thing. A light bulb that does more then just convert electricity into light and heat but also helps make the air fresh? This is not an air freshener that uses perfume but actually destroys the things in the air that make smells well, smelly.
Go to http://fresh2.com/ and see what it's all about.

loath to blog
Well I took the plung.
It's been there for a year or so and well you have to try anything once? No?
Well I did and I am hooked. The simple graphics and silly humour is just the thing to forget what work did to you over the day and let you get in there and play and be silly.
OK it's not like Doom 3 or the latest in the smash and kill series type of games but harkens back to a simpler time with games like hack and ncsnipes.
So chill and be cool, have a martini and drop in and check it out.

Spyware
The scourge of the current web. Spyware is showing up all over and almost imposible to keep out.
The original spyware of course just being Windows, but we won't go into that.
It's amazing how many people come to me complaining of slow computers but don't know what spy ware is. You tell them and they say "gee my home page changed recently to. I don't know why?"
I point them to http://lavasoftusa.com and tell them to download the free version of Adaware SE.
Invariably the responce the next day is a plate of cookies, a box of donuts or an offer for a free beer because "It's like I have a new computer. It removed (X) hundred files and boy is my computer fast now!"
I then tell them to get a good virus checker (most of the people I run into work where I work and have a copy of the corporate av software) and a firewall (anything but the MS one will do) and run adaware once a week.
To people who are more computer literate I also advise suing one of the on-line virus checkers such as house call at trend-micro because it's always good to have a second opinion.
Of course the real fix is install Linux (I like Xandros and FC2 personally but I am also partial to slackware and just putting a kernel on and adding what ever you want :-)
