A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Yesterday The Wire was going for $70, and I held out. THE WHOLE SERIES.

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

Okay, eBay I have no beef with. Imma go look.

I just got my tablet hooked up to work Exchange. I don't want my email on it, but I want to be able to carry my work calendar around with me all the time, and not have to crack open my laptop to check what I'm doing next week. I'm very pleased.

Except now it's password protected, and that's irritating. I might have to change that to a PIN.

The draw a pattern to unlock is pretty cool. I can't recall if it's available on the tablets.

It is available, but the remote administration disables that option. I guess it's not tested strong enough. I went with a PIN, and I couldn't tell you what number it is, it's basically just for the pattern of it.

That's why I have my work calendar on my phone, but not email. I had to do it through a Gcal workaround though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

How old is it? Maybe a little pricey, not horrible, though.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

msbelle, that's basically what mine is -- I think the one you're looking at has a larger hard drive than mine. Anyway, I love mine.
