No more credit card offers

I'm on an anti-junk mail campaign. You can choose to stop getting credit card offers in the mail (which seems to be the bulk of our mail these days).

Send A Holiday Greeting

Go to www.letssaythanks.com where you can pick out a card that will be printed by Xerox and sent to a soldier that is serving in Iraq.

The mission of Let's Say Thanks is to provide a way for individuals across the country to recognize U.S. troops stationed overseas. By submitting a message through this site you have the opportunity to send a free personalized postcard greeting to deployed servicemen and women.

The postcards, depicting patriotic scenes and hometown images, were selected from a pool of entries from children across the country.
All you have to do is click on your favorite design and either select the message that best expresses your sentiment or draft a personal note. The postcards are then printed on the Xerox iGen3® Digital Production Press and mailed in care packages

See Charlotte's Web, Support 4-H

For every ticket purchased for Paramount Pictures and Walden Media's production of Charlotte's Web through http://www.fourhcouncil.edu/, Hollywood Movie Money will make a $1 donation to 4-H to help support your state's 4-H program.

Fun with wikipedia.

This is too much fun not to share...

Wikipedia has a list of "protected pages" that have been locked for editing because of heavy vandalism, or edit and revert "wars". There's a lot of gold to be found in here. Take for example THIS version of the page on Down Syndrome from a few days ago...

Also, there appear to be quite a few battles over Turkish/Greek identity.

The complete list of protected pages (hours of entertainment) is HERE.

More tunes

I the iceland flavor I have uploaded several sweet tracks in Viking from the rock band Sigur Ros, whom are awesome.

Apparently, this software may make it unnecessary to have to get our music thru the gmail interface
