Mmm appropriate. Wild local girls commercial during alice in wonder land disney cartoon.

What did I do today. I had a lazy day. I read some more of the firm. I stole the book from my parents last time I was home (yeah that was a year ago). geek stuff

I think I need to tell me neighbors to turn down the sound on their new X Box? or Surround system. I can hear what I think is a car engine through the walls. Thats not saying much since I don’t think there is anything between the paster in these apartments. I will wait to see if I hear anything upstairs.

Normally I would be at home for Christmas. This year I couldn’t do it. So I waited for presents to arrive via the mail. I think I got everything except my sisters presents. My parents are missing most of there presents thanks to amazon.co.uk, well the UK post office might be more accurate. I mean the country is tiny compared to the US. So why does it take so long for a parcel to get to Scotland. They were posted on the 19th.
So I opened my presents on my own. One of my friends came over to baltimore and I made tomato soup (i swear there is no way it can look like the picture in the book). Then mushroom bolaneas. Then upside down pudding for dinner and watched monsters inc. Fun afternoon but J had to leave to go walk an other friends dogs in DC.

Just counted them I have 5647 photos online on projectphotos.com 🙂

I can’t remember why I didn’t use mail in 10.2, but 10.3 seems to be working out.
1) Has the ability to work off line
2) Supports imap over SSL
3) Supports multiple mail boxes
4) Automatically sents the from information based on the mailbox you are in. Yes there are mail clients out there that don’t do that.
5) Support multiple smtp servers (one per ISP)

The only problem I had was working out how to set the sent items folder. You goto Mailbox -> Use mailbox for -> Sent. I thought you would be able to do it from the context menu i.e cntr – click.

Now if I could only get postfix -> procmail -> cyrus to work I would switch my imap sever over to cyrus.

Finding nemo is not out in the UK on DVD wtf!
