Lately I’ve had to call several telecommunications companies such as Verizon and SBC/ATT. These companies have decided it would be a good idea to provide their customers with a more personal feel by having us talk to automated attendants using voice prompts as opposed to dialing in menu options. So now I’m made to feel […]

Firefox 1.5 Spell Checker
I recently learned the developer of Spellbound, the best spell checker ever for forms in Firefox 1.0, went to work for Mozilla to incorporate the extension to Firefox 2.0. Therefore there was never a compatible release for 1.5. But I found a little known forum project that has an extension that seems to work just […]
September 12th
Did you get enough September 11th anniversary coverage? My life’s not a whole lot different. Is yours? I know it’s not a popular opinion but I don’t feel like the attacks five years ago were the nation changing event the media makes them out to be. We started covering our cars with stickers touting patriotic […]
Family Alleges Racism At Caswell County Pool
It is absolutely amazing that someone has the nerve to say something like the “pool associate” at Lakewood pool in Caswell County, NC (and to children no less). I recommend we mark this membership as blood-fearing racist and make their families wear this mark of a Neo-Nazis for many generations. You are without question the […]

Oil companies bite.

Check out Dillon Supply in the background. That’s the building that caught on fire just after we moved […]
Verizon sucks. <- period.
All of this is documented fact that would hold up in court. A couple of months ago I attempted to get DSL service provisioned by Verizon into a new facility location for Pack-Rat. They screwed up and cancelled the order three times only to re-open it every time. We even paid $49.00 to have a […]
August 1st
Yesterday was an unexpected series of events. A whole lot of stuff happened good and bad. It started off real bad then it got great…. I installed the new Pack-Rat BlackBerry server at our hosting location Peak 10. After getting it into the rack I was looking at the back of the server to check […]
WinVNC4.exe virus
Had a really strange virus break out on our network yesterday. Here’s the breakdown: Trend Micro Office Scan detected an initiation on a workstation at 12:21 PM. The virus was located in the file C:\Program Files\RealVNC\VNC4\WinVNC4.exe. This is a legitimate file and location for us as we have VNC server installed on workstations for remote […]
Why does Acrobat 7 suck so much?
I had a full copy of Acrobat 6 on my machine at work. For some reason only known to Adobe it decided to start hosing and wouldn’t open any documents. It just froze a blank white box on the center of my display. So I uninstalled it and put on a copy of Acrobat 7 […]
