Happy Holidays

Blogging on a holiday? Loser? Yes to the first question. No to the second.
We have an interesting tradition. On the eve (mostly) adults exchange gifts. Although there were Quatro Lego blocks for the little one. We eat hors d orves and generally chill out (e.g. champagane, drinks, etc.).

In the morning we let the little one discover the gifts from St. Nick, have breakfast, take a nap and clean-up. Right now, we're on break between all that and heading to the in-laws for dinner.

Real nice holiday. Everyone is healthy (or healing) right now and for that I am grateful for the blessings of this holiday season.
Hope you and yours are enjoying as well.

You Need This: SpoofStick

If you're on the Internet at all and you use IE or Firefox you're going to want to get this freebie. Trust me.

As the Internet and E-mail become more and more a cesspool were the average user is preyed upon DAILY this little tool will help let you know where you truly are on the Internet. (At least until someone finds a way to hack this little gem).


I am no longer recommending this add-on too buggy in IE 6.0.
It's too bad... a good idea, incompletely implemented.

Coca-Cola & Playstation "Unwrap the Experience" Undercap Promo SUCKS

I drink a fair amount of the brown, sugar and caffeine beverage. I'll go so far as to say I like it but, frankly Coke's latest undercap contest sucks.

(2) 2-liters, (2) 12 pack cans, (2) 12 pack 16.9 oz bottles later...nada...zip.zilch! Not even a free drink! Checking the RULES I've got a 1:12 shot at a coupon. Guess the odds aren't in my favor this time around. I bet the Coke execs are "ho, ho, ho" all the way to the bank;moving the syrup like they wanted.

Happy Holidays!

Day By Day is Back!
