Dazed and Confused Redux. Both Anthony Rapp and Adam Goldberg, the quirky nerdlings extraordinaire from Dazed and Confused, were in A Beautiful Mind, too.

Did you know that Netscape Mail won't work if MSN is your Internet service provider? The allure of a free modem and cheap Internet connectivity lured me into MSN's clutches. Two days into my long-awaited DSL activation, and I discover that MSN only allows outgoing mail from Outlook. How's that for world domination?
Choose the ISP of the sheep, and get treated like a sheep.
Luckily, my delightful web host, dreamhost, just initiated webmail, so it's no skin off my teeth. If there were skin on my teeth, I'd be worried. Baaa.
