Misc. Tidbits

Michelle found a local mommy's group — the Souhegan Valley Family Support Group. The president lives right around the corner. She has two daughters that are Claire and Abby's age. Abby spent a couple hours there today and made a new friend.


Claire's dentist appointment went well. No baby teeth were pulled... yet. If that remaining tooth in front of Claire's emerging adult teeth does fall out within a few months, it will be pulled out.


I really love RSS news agregators! I know that is a lot of technical jargon. I found a decent article describing them and why they are so cool at the Mercury News. On my Mac at home I use NetNewsWire Lite. It makes skimming my favorite web sites a boatload easier. I don't know if the big news services (MSNBC, CNN, etc) support aggregators, but most of the sites I care about do. Soon I'll be looking into some of the aggregators that exist for Windows to put one on my work PC.


My younger siblings will probably get a kick out of this satire news article: RIAA Sues Radio Stations For Giving Away Free Music.


Retracting my entry from earlier this week, the World Health Organization has denied that blondes are going extinct. Darn! I thought there might be money involved in being an endangered species. (grin)


The newest trailer for Lord of the Rings — the Two Towers is up and online. (Quicktime required) When you watch a gripping trailer like that, you start to appreciate why they are called teasers.
