Well it appears that Jako is not only a nice guy, but he’s smart too. He won the Set Puzzle challenge for the second time. His time: 3 minutes, 24 seconds. Mine: I didn’t even finish. I quit after about 5 minutes and only finding 3 sets.

Jako 2, Leia 0

I’ll make my comeback in 2001.

Disturbing Search Request: names of demons. I’m #3! Right under demonbuster.com and “How to do Deliverance.” I guess the person in Mexico looking for this one was disappointed.

I know that I’ve plugged my amazon.com wish list plenty this season, but I just found a neat-o use of this feature over at Amazon. Now you can donate to charities like Habitat for Humanity by buying them items on their wish lists. Hooray for wish lists!

So I got the HTML

December 28th, 2000 Comments off

So I got the HTML email to work using Gammadyne Mailer! Everybody do the happy dance! Atleast I think it works. Outlook (on PC) and Netscape (PC and Mac) seem to read it OK. If you are interested in testing to see if it works for you, let me know and I’ll send it your way.

Interesting quote from a co-worker: “You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can’t wipe your friends on your sleeve.”

Yep, it’s pretty slow right now.

I’m finally getting around to

December 28th, 2000 Comments off

I’m finally getting around to researching the HTML email question I posted on November 27. So far, the research I have found is not helping me. For example, this site, which suggests this procedure: “1) Prepare the Copy in HTML using MS Word 97, 2) Beautify the HTML using MS FrontPage 2000, 3) Beautify the Text Version using MS Word, 4) E-Mail the Dual Version using Gammadyne Mailer 10.0.” Umm…no.

Back in November, James told me that there isn’t really any way to do this using Outlook (the email program of choice here), and that maybe there was some vbscript that would make it work.

So that’s what I’m up to today. Trying to work some email magic. Expect some links to any helpful info I find. Good times.

I am thinking about buying a Handspring: Visor Platinum in the next few days. Is there any reason I should/shouldn’t do that? Please discuss.

Other weird, yet not so disturbing requests:
