Birthdays and Other Miscellanea
Mark Foley? All been said.
National pools showing the Dems win big in November? Ho-hum. I'll go out and vote, and the day after, we'll see who was right and who was wrong.
Iraq? The news, and the selective emphasis of same continues.
Afghanistan? See Iraq above.
Work? We are about to drag Exchange Server out and shoot it. Not fair, really, as our firewall is what's getting in the way. I am exasperated, though.
Had two birthdays last week. Chickie is now twelve! Jeez, I let her live that long? Amazing... especially considering that she has to put up with me as a Dad....

Prior to The Big Day, I had some car trouble. The '01 Saturn SL2 developed into a hard-starting, rough idling PITA. Turned out that a simple coolant temp sensor was sending bogus info to the on-board computer. Simple fix - took less than 1 hour, and the sensor cost less than $20. SaturnFans.Com was an invaluable resource - and a prime example of what the 'Net can be.
Finally, I have yet another Acronym Of The Day
