It got better

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The migraine I worked up to all day at work kept me from running out to get the wireless card for the laptop, so I haven’t gotten that setup at all yet. I tried to just add the access point to the existing network but I’m having a problem with that. I didn’t think it would require a crossover cable, because it has a WAN port, but maybe it does?

On the other hand, my Life of a One-Mad IT Department T-shirt came in! Seems like a pretty good quality T-shirt, the logo is going to crack, we’re pretty convinced of that, but I’m hoping it will give it that sort of homey/worn look without getting unreadable. I think that’s a good possibility. I imagine it looks pretty good on the other products as well. I’m happy with it!

    Yeah I had to take the referrer script down again. At least now I know why the results keep stretching the table width to ridiculous proportions. If a website does not specify a page name, the script prints out the entire URL. Since there’s no space in the URL the table doesn’t try to wrap…

    I saw where Google released a “me too” calendar tool today. I only have one word for them, Intellisync. I keep my calendar in Outlook, so I have it off-line, the only on-line tool I use is Yahoo’s calendar so that my wife can see where I will be at any given time in the…

    A couple of interesting things I saw in my aggregator this morning. Suprisingly there wasn’t that much to look at after not having been in the office since Weds at noon. Guess lots of folks switched to light-blogging mode for the holiday and the weekend! Good sites for MT Junkies In case my other site…

    No there’s nothing like spending 45 minutes of a Friday morning on a conference call with a bunch of tech folks working for our ISP, trying to get some clear idea of what policies and filtering they have in place now, and what new ones are coming, only to come to the conclusion that we…

    Today should be the first time since I’ve updated the handful of XP machines in the office that automatic updates will come into play with Microsoft’s monthly security bulletins coming late yesterday. They’re set to notify the end user that new updates are avaialble. That setting was a guess at what would work best, if…

    Thanks to a pointer fro the Office Weblog, I found this interesting OS News article about using just freeware to get things done on a Windows PC. Most of that stuff is familiar to me, but some isn’t. That’ll give me some new things to think about. 🙂 Speaking of which, I need to update…
