Sending a new email
I always worry about sending email to a person I've never sent an email to. I never know what to put in the subject to say "This is a real email, not SPAM" without making it look even more like spam. Such is the virtual world we live in.

Politics
I try to stay away from political discussions, because I think most issues are too complicated to really resolve without a lot "but in this case" exceptions to whatever rule you want to make. That being said, I think a lot of polictical debate would be better served if this happened. This is copied from Jimmy Stewart's imdb trivia page.
His best friend was probably Henry Fonda, whom he meet while at acting camp. Early on, they got into a fist-fight over politics (Stewart was a staunch Republican, Fonda a very liberal Democrat) that was won by Fonda, but they apparently never discussed politics again. When Fonda moved to Hollywood, he lived with Stewart and the two gained a reputation as some of the playboys in Hollywood. Once married, both men's children noted that their favorite activity when not working seemed to be silently painting model airplanes together.
I think a lot of the utter hate and bile spewed by the politicos would subside if they just had themsleves a good fist fight and got over it.

Well, that's a useful error message
It seems the error message that has bothered me for the last few days on a new system I'm trying to build is also occuring on my production system. This means that the error message means nithing, since my production systemn is working fine. My new system was working fine, then was not working fine, and is now working fine again. It's also getting the error message, but it's working so yippee! Until the next time I shut it down. Will it come back up again? Tune in next week for Nuggie versus AppWorx versus the OIC in a triple threat smackdown.

Well, that worked swimmingly
Writing every day, hahaha!
Work has been so busy, I haven't had time for much else. And with my sweetine wanting me to spend less time on the computer, well, there you go. Maybe I'd be better off working on my angelfire page again.
