Fun City entertainment complex to close May 31. It will always be known as "FunPlex" to me (of course when they tear it down and turn it into medical offices it will be known as "hey, you remember FunPlex?"     #>

Forekast Crowd-Sourced Internet Calendar. Handy for finding out what's happening.     #>

Pole Shift Survival Information. Once again imagine something preposterous and the Internet delivers.     #>

Real Estate Interview - no asians. I laughed (watch to the end).     #>

Floor Plans of famous Tv Apartments. That's pretty cool.     #>

Engineers of addiction. In spite of how well I have done with slots - my first trip to Vegas was a huge win entirely on slots - I really can't stand them. They just seem so pointless and dreary to sit and play.     #>

Subaru Parts Catalog. That is ridiculously handy, I love that it gives you exploded diagrams so not only can you ID your parts you can figure out how hard the replacement is going to be (helped someone replace their ball joint, wheel bearing and wheel hub over the weekend, this was incredibly helpful.)     #>

I had a user have someone guess their password and use it to start sending out spam. This resulted in one of my servers getting it's IP put into several spam black-lists (no surprise, some 30,000 emails were sent before I caught it.) Here's a list of places you can check to see if you are being blacklisted.

I've also installed SendmailAnalyzer, now I just need to figure out how to have it alert me when the amount of sent mail goes nuts like happened this time.     #>

curl --data. I had no idea you could do a POST with curl.     #>

279 professional resume samples in Word. You could spend your entire job hunt just trying to find the "right" template you want to use...     #>

empty - run processes and applications under pseudo-terminal. Nice replacement for "expect" when doing scripting that requires interaction. Also available for Cygwin which is awesome.     #>
