Tidbits
Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…
A ramen bath - Japanese spa with special baths resembling instant noodles. I wanna play!
Old age homes for dogs - 1) Old dogs don’t like to be abandoned at strange places. 2) Playing with young puppies will probably cause the older dogs to die faster due to exhaustion.
A remote-controlled pigeon - Oh the poor thing…
An article on a brilliant method of teaching grade schoolers about bats and rabies. I smell a lawsuit.
Will trade beer for Crumpler bags. Tempted by the beanbag and messenger bags…

Dual Screen is back and here to stay
March 02, 2007, 4:02 am
So I managed a week without the second display after returning the LCD to my brother before I broke down and bought one. Dell had $40 off their regular price for the 1907FP, and I was tired of waiting for the Days of Deal sales that never surface for this particular monitor. Anyways, I also upgraded my Parallels Desktop which finally supports dual screen. So I have XP running full screen on the second monitor, and MacOS on the primary. Make that MacOS on one screen, and work computer (ala Remote Desktop) on the second screen. Work is the only reason I have Windows running anyways. Everything works quite well. I just need to remember to use the right control keys for the appropriate window (Apple for Mac, Control for XP). Now I can monitor my test runs on the side while watching TV on full screen. If only I can do that at work too.. 
Though now I will need to upgrade to 2 gig of ram if I really want to use both OSes side by side, but besides for work, I don’t need to run Windows at all.
