damn spammers
Looks like a bot net got ahold of my email address and is using it as the from address in a series of spams. I've gotten 40 or 50 bounces that couldn't be delivered lately.

brains?
Ok, I know there's a few zombie experts out there, give me some suggestions. I've got the urge for a few zombie flicks, so I'm looking for your expertise here. What would you say are your all time favorite zombie flicks? -
SNOW!
That... is a LOT of snow. And it's not done. Wow. Now, while I decided yesterday that I was working from home, and brought in some wood for the fireplace, it wasn't enough, so I just shoveled my way through knee high drifts to get more. And a small part of the front walk. Wow. Lots and lots of snow. Glad I didn't go anywhere ( Read more... )
