Unfortunately, my FMP experience is also years and years out of date, and I only used it informally besides....

Toddson, loved the story!

Hey, if Jessica PMoon was named for the Dune character, does that make Dylan the Muad'dib?

I do not currently have Filemaker Pro and I haven't used it for several years, but when I was using it, Rob used to help me a lot. I believe he still reads Buffistatechnology.

Also, congrats Jessica and FoneBone on the littlest Alter!

‘Cream of Wheat’ man finally gets a tombstone

LESLIE, Mich. - A man widely believed to be the model for the smiling chef on Cream of Wheat boxes finally has a grave marker bearing his name.

Frank L. White died in 1938, and until this week, his grave in Woodlawn Cemetery bore only a tiny concrete marker with no name.

On Wednesday, a granite gravestone was placed at his burial site. It bears his name and an etching taken from the man depicted on the Cream of Wheat box.

Jesse Lasorda, a family researcher from Lansing, started the campaign to put the marker and etching on White’s grave.

“Everybody deserves a headstone,” Lasorda told the Lansing State Journal.

I thought the story was interesting, although the results were kind of depressing. A lot of people aren't really taking the whole identity theft thing seriously - I mean, she targeted that woman and seemed to think being hauled into court again was a big joke.

The Post ran a story abut a woman who, with her husband, were funding a pretty expensive life style through identity theft and fraud. She's out of jail and has written a book about it - a number of people wrote in outraged that they were giving this woman free publicity for her book, when she didn't seem particularly sorry for what she'd done.

And I have a form of identity theft protection - my office offers a legal services option (you pay a fee and there's a legal service you can call if you need help - seemingly it's good for getting cops to give up on iffy traffic stops), and they offer the identity theft protection at an additional fee. I get a monthly e-mail telling me if there's anything showing up about me on the credit bureaus.

This identity theft thing is making me feel bad about how the Winchesters make their money on SPN! Which I am now addicted to, although I am only through 3/4 of Season One.

When Officer Rickey Terrell arrived a moment later -- about 45 minutes after the chase began -- he, too, searched the Walgreens garage. He found Nelson crouched behind a car smoking a cigarette in front of an emergency exit.

Criminals are a superstitious, cowardly lot.

I did research on identity theft for one of my grad classes. It's actually one of the forms of crime that people aren't hysterical about (unlike murder or rape, where the incidents of reporting in the media are disproportionately high).

I guess that for one to become fully outraged about a case of identity theft, one would have to read a detailed story. For murder and rape, one might only have to read a headline.
