Nov. 13th, 2003 12:59 pmYou know the NyQuil is working when you start having vivid dreams about the entire cast of the muppet show chasing you around singing "Hubba Hubba Zoot Zoot".
I'm back at work today, having passed the worst of the cold, but I'm still terribly airheaded. I found out that even with the one sick day yesterday and the 3 days I'm going to take off over new year's day I'll still have 178 hours of unused vacation (!!). My office won't let me sell back any so I need to actually plan a long vacation sometime this spring.
Also, for
custer_winston and any other friends using a SmartphoneOS device:
Space Invaders
PacMan
These are both very true to the arcade editions and also freeware, written by some SPV (a version of the smartphone) enthusiasts in the UK. Be sure to read the readme files on how to install as they're not nicely packaged click-and-runs.

The two games are harmless. Single executibles, self contained. You just have to make your own menu shortcuts is all. Of all the various 'try this it's cool' software out there, these are the least invasive I've found.
Silly me
Date: 2003-11-13 02:07 pm (UTC)I suppose the only limitation of the Smartphone over Windows Mobile Phone edition is the latter's ability to handle multiple amil accounts. With the phone, it can handle any type, but only one. I hardly need to activesync my email to a phone. And since my inbound POP3 mail has no corresponding outbound server, I'll use the IMAP account in the phone.
If you have multiple computers and other mail enabled devices, IMAP is a lot better anyway, at least for me, as I can never remember which PC or other device was used to download a particular POP3 message.
P.S. I would not have bought the 50 icon option for this account if I knew I was going to get 5 more for free anyway!

Thanks for filling that void. :)
