Reasons to love Willie
I am just catching up on the news, and I found this headline in today's Dallas Morning News (online), “Willie opens closet with 'Cowboys'.” So naturally, I was intrigued. It appears that Willie Nelson has released a song titled, “Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other” (available as an iTunes exclusive, and released today).… Continue reading
Cool Email of the Week
Earlier this week, I received an email from James Nunn. The subject of the email was “Feedback: our names” and I'm thinking to myself, hmmm… more viagra adverts (coming through my feedback tool on my website). I was surprised to open the email and find this: Dear James, Hi. This is a bit cheeky but… Continue reading

Today, there are… Continue reading

Examples in the segment include Red Cross, etc. Interesting concept, but equally interesting is the argument that a person should be able to control… Continue reading
CC not a friend to Firefox
The Collin County Government website still appears to be unfriendly to Netscape and Firefox.
Is CCGLA there?
It appears that CCGLA is not following their own procedures, or have deliberately avoided collecting my certified letter sent on December 7, 2005. As you can see (click on the thumbnail to see a larger image), after repeated attempts by the United States Postal Service, my letter has been returned as unclaimed. The CCGLA Operations… Continue reading
