I don't even want to know.

Here, I'm taking a break from cleaning - so far I've bleached the interior of the fridge, mopped the kitchen floor, done the dishes, and vacuumed the living room rug. Trying to listen to some of the "new" music I've missed out on through being so darned busy with school and work.

I'm already tired and it's only just after 2 p.m. here....

Oh, and I still have a research paper to finish - due tomorrow.

Just finished a very nice lunch with my dad. He works for the Peace Corp and was at my university on a related errand.

Good book, if (ironically enough) a little preachy

I suppose you could use it to compare the two search engines to see which one you might want to use by default (unless you are a yahoo diehard), but I think I may leave bingle as my default for awhile. I rather like having both engines showing.
Ricky, you might like, if only from a curiosity perspective, BlindSearch (<---linky). As Lifehacker (<---linky) describes, it will:

"...remove all the branding and layout and provide straight-up search results from three sites, with voting buttons on each column"

(see the Lifehacker link for a better description, and a minor disclosure about the creator)

Anyway, I've not looked at it properly yet, but it looks interesting.

Cheers,

I planted a plum tree three months ago. There were three whole plums on it. Yesterday they all had bite marks from the squirrels. Today they've also got wasps on them.
So I am very fed up with the **** squirrels. I don't know whether I could actually hit one with a sling, but I may buy a water pistol...

There are devices to restrain access for squirrels. It all depends on the size of the trees.


If everything fails you can get 220v electrodes and intall them at the base of the tree. Toasted squirrels with plums sauce?
