Mild amusement:
1. Notice you have in your Inbox an email meant for the Helpdesk.
2. Change your email header Reply-To to the email address of the person who just emailed.
3. Forward said email to the Helpdesk@ email address.
Result: Helpdesk software auto creates the ticket and emails the person who sent the email to your Inbox …
Reminder: Change your email header back.
Nerd
Several people in the office are testing Exchange Web Services. So far so good:
iPhoto library loading
Better task management
Better OOTO management (will be testing this more)
Directory works!
More to come.

“This image is 100 meters long (100 m x 78 cm). There are 178 people in the picture, all shot in the course of 20 days from the same spot on a railroad bridge in Warschauer Strasse in Berlin in the summer 2007.”

Blue Scholars. Reason #101 why I love living in the Pacific Northwest. Check out the video for their track “Loyalty.”
Hip hop from the Northwest. Check out the guy making hand motions.
Scirocco
Im selling my 1987 VW Scirocco. I find it interesting that one of the common questions I get asked is:
Is it an automatic transmission or manual?
Granted, the second generation Scirocco had a three speed automatic transmission, but still.
Hopefully I can sell it and generate some cash for a car that is still made! (in America).
Randomness
Today was interesting.
Took a friend to get her car fixed. Turns out … it will cost 1700usd is what Bucky’s wants to charge. She is getting a second opinion.
Picked up a MacBook Pro fixed under Apple Care.
Received Invisishields in the mail.
Looked at Jetta in Shoreline … there was a nice fat crop of mold in the backseat. Smelly.
Got a book.
Learned about inheritance of AD...
Right Place. Right time.
I was in Verite today and talked with the barista about getting some art installed. He mentioned they are booked through June, but that after June, he would be the curator and would be contacting me.
Sweetness.
