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

Okay, there. Now Eowyn & Rosie can both see each other. We'll have to see what happens with Estel gets home.

In fact, if you have Ubuntu installed you can just do "apt-get install kubuntu-desktop" and now you have Kubuntu.

Does anybody have one of those wireless weather stations, where you stick a (set of) sensor(s) outside and it monitors indoor and outdoor temperature, rainfall, etc? Any brand or model recommendations? I want something midrange, not where the house looks like a total freak lives in it, but where I can gather some useful information, from the new land, etc. But not, like, crazy expensive.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I think my mom was shopping for one recently. Suspect dad and stepmom likely have one as well. Emails shall be shot now, when come back hope to bring recs.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Have a look at Oregon Scientific. They have a pretty wide range of features and prices.
I have a simple clock with indoor/outdoor thermometer, similar to this: [link]
My Dad has one like this. He really likes the projection feature, which seems weird to me.

Mothra's reply: I researched several simple weather stations and either Oregon Scientific or La Crosse are fairly reasonable (it was a La Crosse that we saw in that store that they were out of) and they have good reps. The more bells you add, the more the cost goes up. I pretty much was looking at indoor/outdoor temps and humidity. Adding rainfall and wind gauges add $$$$.
