Yeah, well, it was nice — the free Flickr Pro account that came with AT&T broadband.
So, AT&T, are you going to knock some off of my monthly bill, now that I have less??
Pfft. I’m not holding my breath.
Well played, Ryan. Well played.
One of my favorite Firefox Add-ons has an update released today: Adblock Plus.

No need for bailout, say diners near thriving car plant – CNN.com
I don’t think they should bail them out because … obviously something’s not right in the way they’re running their business, and why should the American people have to bail them out if they can’t figure out how to do it right?

I’ve gone the hardcore route using rsync via Cygwin with Windows Task Scheduler. I also used the free version of Syncback SE.
I recommend Cobian Backup, however.
Cobian is good because it lets me keep 4 copies of full backups on my external hard drive. It also runs as a service.
Glad I had a good backup a few weeks ago when I had to reformat.

How do you justify advocating animal rights in a world filled with poverty and starvation? Joslyn DeGroot YPSILANTI, MICH.
Perhaps one of the most important things you can do for human beings is wean them off an animal-based diet. It hardens the arteries and runs up our health-care costs. The last thing a poor person can afford is a heart attack or cancer or a stroke. And that’s all linked to a meat-based diet. I think animal liberation is human liberation.
Uh-huh.
