Just heard a guy order a grande skim half-caf ristretto (???) 180 degree latte at Starbucks. Surprised he didn't specify the number of bubbles in the foam.

Notes

Found a place in Jax that makes *really* good boba tea! An unexpected find for sure.
Watching "Paul Blart: Mall Cop." Hey - that's Burlington Mall in MA! I've been there a lot! Didn't meet Kevin James though.
Just finished watching remake of "The Day the Earth Stood Still." Poor reimagining of a classic. FX and preachy message is all it had going for it.
Thinking about going to see "9" today. Been interested in it since I saw the trailer months ago.
Two different Filipino restaurants tonight - both closed. Went to Golden Corral instead. Filipino to White Trash American just like that.
Who knew that there would still be trash pick up on Labor Day. Not me! Don't our sanitation workers deserve Labor Day off?
Running SpinRite on my primary laptop. Hope it works its usual magic.
Just visited an hhgregg store for the first time. Coincidentally, it's also the last time. Not impressed.
Friend was at Smithsonian today. OH mom telling son that Earth is one of the smaller planets in the world. Also talked about planet Venice.
"Trust Agents," "Socialnomics," "The Whuffie Factor," "Six Pixels of Seperation" - so many books on social media for biz that I need to read NOW.

Downloading Ubuntu 9.04 desktop and server. Looking to understand it better for SMB clients. In this economy, the time is right!

Nothing is more frustrating than sending someone a detailed email and getting partial responses.

The bigger question here is... who has $82 worth of Hot Pockets and chicken wings in their freezer? http://ping.fm/DYags

Really wish Google Reader let you mark all items older than x as read.

Oracle + Sun = slow death for MySQL? I think so...

St Augustine FL is definitely *NOT* AT&T country. Not a 3G signal to be found.

Finally figured out how to set up my iPod to sync with two completely different computers. Not elegant, but functional.

dSLR users - which is better and why - Canon or Nikon? Opinions?

I have a lot to back up (200GB), so Carbonite wins on price. But it won't back up external or network drives - not good.

billpoly wrote on Mar 23, '09

Any recommendations for online backup providers? I'm currently looking at Carbonite and Jungle Disk.

Just switched Gmail to always use https and Offline broke. Ended up reinstalling. Cache appears to be stored by port in Gears.
