I got my new backup drive yesterday and after it thawed out for a few hours, I hooked it up, eager to copy all my precious data off my old, ill drive. Unfortunately, the old ill drive is now in critical condition and won’t mount on my desktop and share its data.
I ran a disk [...]

When I get sick of my blog and do something drastic to it.
This time I’m going to be moving it to WordPress, so I may break every link on here and things might be all wonky for a few days… but I will return!

Verizon Minutes Used Firefox Extension
Something for the Firefox/Verizon user subset of readers. I went over my minutes last month, something that I hadn’t done in a very long time. Hopefully this will help. I know, I know #646, but I always forget to do that, and I spend a lot more time looking at my [...]

Prison Break is back on FOX this week. I’m really liking this show. Good escapism until 24 returns in January.
It felt like I was in prison this afternoon at work. Our network ended up with some stupid virus that cause all the Windows machines to shut themselves down and restart every few minutes. We ended [...]

I highly recommend this setup.
What a lovely way to enjoy the first day in weeks I did not spend at work.

Hopefully, by now, my handful of readers have found the joy and freedom that is Firefox and have left evil IE along side the road. Unfortunately, there are still some sites out there that want to slam the door on anyone who isn’t using IE. I had heard that this was a problem with the [...]
