Set iChat Status 1.0.1 (Apr 22 2004 16:59 GMT) - This is a totally impractical app I wrote, because I had too many status messages saved in iChat, and the scrolling annoyed me. It's dead simple. Pick a status, enter a message, (or not) and click okay, or hit enter. Updated some minor back end script handlers, and it's now built in FacesSpan 4.0, instead of AppleScript Studio. |

Frustration reigns... (Apr 22 2004 16:59 GMT) - I'm not exactly sure where to start. I had an old laptop that wasn't being used and a few months back we'd purchased a nice Microsoft Wireless router hoping we'd get broadband soon. Since I don't think we'll EVER get a nice viable broadband option I decided I'd get the old box setup and use connection sharing so we could get all of our boxes connected to the net no matter where we were in the house. We have our desktop, my work laptop, and another laptop we purchased back in October of last year. The two laptops have wireless built right in and the desktop could connect via a cable to the Microsoft Wireless router, perfect! |

As for myself, I am in love with Tim Hudson (not only can he pitch, but he looks damn good doing it) and he is my favorite baseball player. (FYI: He's pitching at Safeco tonight and I wish I were going to that one. |

They're tabling for the American Cancer Association (of all things). They're standing up, but I still think you'll know who I'm talking about. Hugo - I am not the one to ask about fashion. |

The ambitious woman wants to work and intern and has (almost completely) decided to do that here, just not sure exactly where (company wise). Anyway, she's crazy busy, so I barely get to talk to her anymore. |
