Can’t someone at Norad or whoever is responsible for NoradSanta- plan for bandwidth so when I go to show my kids where Santa is - they can actually see something other than a “please wait” screen?   It seems like someone (Google?) should be able to provide some bandwidth for this…
At one point the screen was [...]

Should Google Buy Adobe?
December 7, 2006 – 1:26 pm
This is one I hadn’t considered before but is mentioned in this article entitled “Changing Climates for Microsoft and Google, Desktops and Webs” - Part II of a series by John Milan.
He wonders what Google will do if the search/advertising revenue drops and one of his suggestions is they might acquire someone - but who? [...]
KLR Oil Screen
December 1, 2006 – 10:19 am
Over the weekend I finished up doing some much needed maintenance on the KLR.
Changed oil and filter
Replaced the doohickey
Flushed and replaced my coolant
Cleaned the oil screen
On my previous KLRs I had never taken the time to check the oil screen but many have reported it is often clogged - so I decided I’d check it [...]

See his post here - as well as some other [...]

The Who - 2006
October 23, 2006 – 12:29 pm
Saw this on CNN this morning - new Who album due out soon!
"I've just been waiting," Pete Townshend told The Associated Press, "waiting, I suppose, for science to take over and give me the right to have another baby as a 60-year-old woman and suddenly it's arrived and there's a baby and it feels good. [...]
Wikipedia
October 12, 2006 – 2:26 pm
I'm becoming a Wikipedia whore... Today I found this great entry for Dream Theater which also led me to "List of songs over fifteen minutes in length" which was entertaining in itself! Doing a quick scan Miles Davis jams!
