Sent to me from my friend, Cindy:
Dear Lord,
Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm and safe from harm
For they're so close to me.
And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;
Hope you don't mind me asking,
Please bless my computer too.
Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord.
You see, that little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends;
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends.
I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal
Takes me in to where they live.
By faith is how I know them -
Much the same as you -
We share in what life brings us
And from that our friendships grew.
Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book
That's filled with so much love.
Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox
And each person who hits "send".
When you update your Heavenly list
On your own Great CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer
Sent up to GOD.com
AMEN

Hey, guess what? My iTunes songs are all back.
I was really upset about losing them and was googling for others to comiserate with. I came across
this article and it said that Apple will let you redownload if you ask really nice. I figured it couldn't hurt. I filled out the email form on Apple's support page, included all of the order numbers that contained the missing songs, added a "Pretty, pretty please" (Yes, I did) and yesterday I received an email from Apple support saying:
I'm sorry to hear that you lost your iTunes Store purchases. I know how distressing that can be, so I've made all of the content you lost available for you to download again, free of charge. Please understand that Apple does not offer protection against the loss of your purchases, so this is a one-time exception.
Yay!!!

Why does it seem that everything breaks or falls apart when you have no money?
My poor old iPod is toast. I plugged it in at work the other day and it wouldn't mount. Here at home, I got it to mount a couple of times to start transferring data off of it, but it kept crashing my Finder. I managed to get all but the music off of it. *sigh* It's the same problem I had
before. The firewire port comes loose from the motherboard. Since Marcus no longer works at his old place of employment, there is nobody to
fix it this time. Oh, well. I did get almost three more years' use out of it. I just wish I could've backed up my iTunes library first. There seem to be IDE adapters on the market for these 1.8" ipod drives. Maybe when I have some money again, I'll try one.
UPDATE: Well, I held the firewire cable just right to transfer the music folder. I couldn't move my hand for over 10 minutes. OW! At least I can rest easy that I got all of my stuff off the ipod.

So, guess where Marcus and I will be at 10:00am tomorrow morning:
Free T-shirts to the first 1000 people. Oh, yeah.
« All Done!

I just got this photo from one of my co-workers that he took a couple of weeks ago. Aren't you jealous of my work environment?
I'm all for any software that allows you to free yourself from the evil giant, Microsoft. Another co-worker pointed me to
Flip4Mac WMV, a component that allows .wmv files to be played through Quicktime.
