One project
Ok. I’ve agreed to one project and that is a good thing. It will be a fun project too albeit I am expecting it to be a lot of work.
Back in the chair
Alright (one of my favorite words to hear Amy speak). I’ve picked up my friend’s computer and will be making virus removals and repairs. This in conjunction with the virus removals I’ve done for the businesses is helping me develop paperwork to make this a documented and efficient process. Maybe I can do lots of these!
Internet Folklore?
This is not a confirmed story but looks impressive. The exploits of a drunk driver
The New Desktop
Wow! What a fantastic presentation by Sun. Project Looking Glass Take a look at the future because if Microsoft does not embrace something similar to this, Sun or another company will find a way to steal their marketshare.
A Domain Devoted to Me
I’ve uploaded my resume to The Perfect job. This is a domain I’d intended to develop a better job search engine around and still may. Right now I’ll slowly add information to help people decide they want to hire me and then maybe some job resource information.
Koolaid Drink of Choice
Both bank accounts are drained (await $100 from paypal to reach one of them, awaiting $175 in checks from a client, awaiting $200 in rebates from Motorola–otherwise that’s it).
No milk in the fridge. The kids are drinking Koolaid for breakfast today. Must scrounge $10 to pay for Tommy’s prescription today.

In TN? Comcast Owes You Money!
According to the Tennessee Department of Revenue in these “Procedures for claiming refunds of sales tax” Comcast (or other ISPs-check with yours) may owe you money.
House bill 3484 signed into law on May 18, 2004, established time deadlines for claiming refunds of sales and use tax collected by Internet service providers (“ISPs”) on the sale of Internet access following the Tennessee Court of Appeals decision in Prodigy Services Corporation, Inc. v. Ruth E. Johnson, Commissioner.
Consumers seeking a refund must submit a written request to their ISP by July 17, 2004. Consumers may seek refunds extending back to December 1, 2000,…
Based on a case decided by the Tennessee courts, the Department of Revenue has indicated that internet access is no longer considered a taxable “telecommunication service” under Tennessee sales tax law.
Some companies, such as AOL, never charged a states sales tax, therefore, no refunds for its customers.
Get your money if your owed!
A New Day! Let’s start the day off with a PayPa…
A New Day!
Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
This Morning
Woke at 2am and again at 4am but neither time could I pull myself from bed but I was close. I want to return to bed now but I cannot and will not! My stomach is in knots. I have to get some money in my account today. I am considering scraping up change in the house just to make a deposit. I fear the bank closing my account worse than most anything else.
Today I have plans to visit the IRS office. This should be interesting.
Time to rouse Tommy.
8 year old adults
We just returned from the reception for David Fisher. His son Ben was obviously upset but was just being such a man. He held his composure better than I may have been able to do myself. The service was open casket and Noah handled himself very well. He became somewhat upset and tucked his hands deeply into his pockets refusing hugs and definitely refusing to step up to the casket with either Ben or myself. Ben was thrilled at Noah’s presence. When they saw each other Ben lit up. Noah did a good thing tonight and it was hard. He is such a good child!
Driving Test Question
Trick Question (note: this is psuedo-safe for work but unlikely to be safe for guys to view it while sitting near your wives and/or girlfriends. Also, if your workplace is super-uptight about today’s sexual harassment overkill you may just want to wait until you get home to click this link..of course, if that’s the case, then they probably are equally as uptight about blogging and reading blogs online which means you are in trouble already anyway and you just might as well click the link.)
Evening Choas
All adult focus now turned toward preparing for the receiving of our recently passed friend. The children’s focus is torn between screaming for the adults, singingly loudly and repetitive to drown out the screaming, and being totally self-absorbed in video games and telephone calls. Sprinkle on a little anti-cleaning and you understand our moment in time.
Job Search Progress
- Applied to Home Depot online.
- Spoke to someone about a sales job selling appliances (sounded like door to door vaccuum cleaner sales). I said I wasn’t the right person.
- Applied to the Knoxville News Sentinel for an Online Sales Coordinator position.
