[Dogs and Cats]

Priceless.

[War Movies]

I highly recomend the movie 'Das Boot", other wise known as The Boot. It is a move about a German Uboat crew, and for all intensive purpouses it is a very good movie.

[hello everyone!]

Hellow Ashley. You will find some really interesting people here, and a lot of great advice.

[Just got a Wii!]

Wii Fit, really good unless you home is really confined, and then you find that you have busted something in the house as a result of vibration causing things to fall off the shelves.

[I recently got a Mac]

Congradulations on the choice. Now you are free from pc viruses, and all kinds of weird problems associated with PC's. I have made a living fixing Window's probems, and MAC is my personal preferance, however Microsoft has forced me to use a PC to fix the problems that they create.

[Video Surveillance software and Web cam kits]

I have installed web cam/ survailance systems for business customers so that they can check on employees at work over the internet, it is called VPN tunneling. I have also seen the same application for daycares whereby parents can check on their children over the internet simply by logging into their respective accounts, and clicking the check on my child icons. Pretty cool, but really expensive as one would have to purchace the equipment, then the static IP address on a wide area network (WAN), from a service provider, then pay someone to set up a vpn, and the software to run the operation, but it is cool once you have it in place.

[Giving instructions over the phone is not easy....]

Speaking of giving instructions over the phone is not easy, try working tech support for computers to business owners over the phone. Most difficult task especially when they are angry.

[Hurricane season is fast approaching]

It has come to my attention that the Euopean track plots always send the hurricanes crashing in to the US.

[OT: PC graphics cards - need help]

I would recomend a low end Ge Force graphic card, they are not real expensive and easy to install, and they will last forever so long as you clean the dust out of the internal fan once in a while.

[Geography? Some interesting things for "trivial pursuit"]

06-06-06 has already passed with no great issues, however the Mayans predict the end of the world on 12-21-12.
