Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Can anyone recommend a "quark for dummies" type book for the mac version? I have used InDesign, and am fumbling my way through some changes and updates, but things like how to create paragraph and character styles are defeating me.

Trust my rage

My wireless adapter for my Tivo arrived today AIFG. So far, I'm jsut happy that there is no more phone line across the living room. It was just waiting for the dogs to trip on it and send the whole thing crashing down.

Any recs for a digital camera with a minimum of 3 megapixels and a 10x or greater optical zoom lens?

I really like all of Canon's digital cameras, and the PowerShot S1 IS looks like it fits the bill.

The Panasonic 12x zoom cameras also look good. I've never used them, but the reviews seem positive.

That said, I'd never go back to a non SLR camera after having used an SLR. Being able to change lenses is a lifesaver. In low light, our 50mm 1.8 lens lets us take fast exposure pictures that we couldn't get with any fixed lense digital camera.

hip deep in pie

I heard good things about the Powershot S1 when I was shopping around too. Though I went with something cheaper.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"An Addictive Taste of iPod: It occurred to me last week, as I inserted the earbuds and cued up a trip to my own little world. Apple's iPod Shuffle is the musical equivalent of a gateway drug. It all starts out innocently and before you know it, you're hooked and searching for the next rush."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The Birth of the Notebook

On the top of page 2 is the Epson HX-20, the first computer to be called a "laptop" (it came out in '82). It has a built-in tape drive and printer. I own one - it's fun.
