I like the new Smuckers 'Low Sugar Concord Grape' jelly. I noticed that they have two slightly different website addresses on the product, though: smucker.com, and smuckers.com. Both of them are listed on the jar, but both point to same site. I wonder why they did that?

I installed SuSE Linux 9.0 via FTP (which took forever), but now the computer won't shut down, and it freezes up more than I expected it to, and the online updates kinda suck, as they only works sometimes. Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed, and I just don't see what the whole Linux fever is all about. I also tried the bootable Live-Eval CD trial version (downloaded the ISO image and burned to CD) of SuSE linux 9.0 (so I could compare it to the Knoppix trial version from a month or two ago), but it wouldn't work with my monitor or something. Whatever. Linux also runs slower than Win98 on an 1.0 GHz AMD Duron processor, and the games that come with SuSE really blow ("Potato Man"? Need I say more?)   =(

We watched "The Sword in the Stone" last night. Cute cartoon, Becca liked it. The L.A. Times ran an obituary for Sister Hinckley, which I thought was neat.

I think it's great that Governor Swartzenegger wants California to have a part-time legislature, like Nevada.   We're role models for Ah-nold!

Apple's iTunes sucks on so many levels. If you get a free song off of a bottlecap, you have to install iTunes to download it (which doesn't run on Win98 or Linux, by the way). After you get the song, it's not an MP3 file, it's an M4P file - which doesn't play in Windows Media Player, but only in iTunes, RealPlayer, or Quicktime (all of which suck compared to WMP, in my opinion). What's up with that? Lame. I promptly uninstalled iTunes - what a joke.

Found the "Cinema Nevada" mystery cache - Misti did all the clues, and I made a suspicious fool out of myself in public trying to rehide the thing. Good times.
