I’m still working on this. Just some photo sites I like. There are many more I need to add.

Photography and/or Gear Sites …

Blogs …

Newspaper Photo Blogs …

Photo Sharing Sites…

Media Playing Software…

I’ll say this – it works much much better with communal mail servers (read: those used by those of us on shared hosting) than the previous versions.

Edit: What it doesn’t do all that well is import my eudora email. I think the biggest issue is that the mail has links to non existent files and directories. Once I clean those up it should be better.

You know the magical Monkey’s Paw that grants you three wishes?  Typically cursed wishes?  I think the Vikes’ coach has one.

He clearly used a wish on mullet wearing defensive end Jared Allen.  Why else would KC let him go?  Unless it is that he is a great pass rusher when it doesn’t matter but isn’t when it does. If the Vikes are in a spot where they really need to get pressure on the QB they would be better off with Subway’s Jared.

I’m also pretty sure he used one on Favre.  Enough said on that.

I think the big wish was clearly the one that got him Adrian Peterson.  A great back.  Very Barry Sanders like in that he can break off a long run at any time.  (Unless you’re talking the last 6 games.)  He’s also like Sanders in that he has a few negative plays for every long run.  But unlike Barry he likes to leave the ball for the other team at the end of those long (short or negative) runs.  How useless is it to have a great back if you can’t guarantee a yard or that you’ll even retain possession at the end of it?

Unreal.

Prediction:  The Vikes lose to the Giants to end the season and play Dallas in the Wild Card Round.  (A game they would lose.)

Picked up one of these for $15 from Target.  Makes a nice waffle.

CNN has a "Does Obama deserve the nobel?" poll.  This is silly.  People who think that he does not deserve the prize do not understand why he won it.  He won it for not being George W Bush.  That is the sole reason.  Do not let any one tell you otherwise.

I’d give him a prize for that if I was in the business of handing out prizes.

There is an Eggo waffle shortage.  How on earth is there an Eggo waffle shortage?  The only Eggos I could find were strawberry Eggos.  I’m forced to eat substandard Cub branded waffles.  Are we in Russia?

This is no way to live.

Oh lordy.  They have a nasty after taste.
