It’s a lot of awesome, so if you are running WordPress, be sure to update! What mattered to me the most are: It finally fixed the flash uploader annoyance caused by Flash 10 Player update. Automatic WordPress update, no more need to FTP! Customizable User Interface.  Good looking and nice! I did have one problem [...]

We were there yesterday after work to return stuff, and on our way back we saw this pretty awesome vending machine that I’ve only seen online where they are in use overseas. Pretty cool I say, too bad it wasn’t turned on yet.

Some stupid #@$% somehow got their hands on my Discover card account and went on a shopping trip at Walmart (although I am pretty sure they are just testing it out since they have only made several small purchases).  Good thing that Discover fraud department called me, canceled the card right away, and we didn’t [...]

It was pretty frustrating, but after a bit of searching, I guess I wasn’t the only one having the problem. If you are having the same problem, here are the [...]

Appearantly the FiOS installation is moving along pretty well.  Jeannie snapped these pictures of Verizon trucks digging up our streets yesterday.  I actually called the local Verizon office to ask about the FiOS, and was told that FiOS Internet, TV, and Phone will be ready in early December.  I am not sure if that will [...]
