  • Tuesday 25 | What Privacy

    This is very upsetting; you might want to pass it along.
    Now you can see anyone’s Driver’s License on the Internet, including your own!
    I just searched for mine and there it was…picture and all! Thank you Homeland Security, where is our right to privacy? You can remove yours from the list, I suggest you [...]

  • Thursday 20 | New Camera!

    I just purchased a new camera for Julia from eBay. It was my first purchase but I managed to out-bid some fierce competition. It’s a Minolta DiMAGE 7 5.2 Megapixel and includes some nice extras…

    “The DiMAGE 7 is aimed at the prosumer level of the market, it sports all the features you’d expect [...]

  • Monday 17 | Google Reader

    Google Reader (beta)
