Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Our wings are not tired

So now that I've got this setup I'm looking for a good bluetooth keyboard setup. Currently I've got the Apple Keyboard and Mouse on Bluetooth, but what would really rock is a BT trackball, or even better keyboard with built-in touchpad. Anyone know of any?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Laters, y'all. I'll be at ND's house if you need me.

Right now EvilRoommate is over visiting and we're playing Xbox on the big TV.

You aren't helping.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Will there be some sort of announcement heralding when the Apple hardware ships with Tiger? Of course there will -- but if they ship with Tiger before April 15th, where to do I need to be looking to see when to buy?

Canon Powershot S1 IS

I've had my eye on that camera since it came out a year ago. I saw a good sale price on it a few weeks ago and regret not putting more consideration into making a purchase.

That said, I'd never go back to a non SLR camera

I'd love to have a digital SLR as a second camera since I covet the ability to zoom in on a subject, but I'm looking for something a bit smaller and more portable.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have an idiot client who can't read, and we're trying to make it easier on them. Anyone know how to turn off the automatic link-ifying of email addresses and URLs in Word? (I'm poking around in Options right now.)

All is well that ends in pizza.

In a document or in the application? This is what Microsoft says

Microsoft Word can format Web and e-mail addresses as hyperlinks as you type, but you can turn off this feature if you want.

1. On the Tools menu, click AutoCorrect Options, and then click the AutoFormat As You Type tab.
2. Under Replace as you type, select or clear the Internet and network paths with hyperlinks check box.

Aha! Yeah, never would have found that on my own. ('Cause, underlining links != correcting anything. But whatever, it's off now.)

Thanks.
