That's really cool, megan! I had no idea that was possible.

Basically the door buzzer can be linked to any 415 phone number, so, since my cell phone has the same area code, I could use that. Good thing since it's my only phone.

Wow, that's magic. Although it would be a problem for me here, since I don't have a 617 number, even though I have a home phone!

I occasionally get calls from my front door by people who pressed the wrong button. It's the building's equivalent of ass-dialing.

I used to have a heavy brass koala (IDEK) that my son and his gf at the time gave me. The boys said they could track me down in a store because I'd hold the keys in my left hand by the bear and flap, flap, flap, flap, the keys back and forth over my hand while I shopped.

Promised sunshine by the weather people, H and I are headed up to Squamish today, where the SPN episode Wishful Thinking was filmed. We've been to Concrete, the putative town in the ep--but not the actual filming location. There will be flickr pictures, for those interested. Eventually.

Yeah, my old apartment I wouldve loved to use my cell, but no long distance allowed. And I've had this cell number for 12 years!

Question for the eco-people -- I've got Mac power chord that doesn't work anymore. The kind with the white box thingie. It's got a little symbol on it with a trash can with an X through it, so I know I'm not supposed to throw it out, but what am I supposed to do with it? Is this electronics recycling?

Hil - yes, you should be able to include it with electronics recycling.

You could probably just take it to the apple store and they'll deal with it. You might even get a credit or a coupon.

Closest Apple Store is about 200 miles away.

Thanks. I've had a box of stuff for electronics recycling sitting in my living room for a while. Just have to actually remember about it at a time when they're open and I feel like going there.

OMG - the students have been letting off a giant noisemaker in here. Something like an air horn. I swear my ears are about ready to bleed. And now I'm all jumpy.
