(ok)Apparently, I do now.

There are plenty of Task Managers available for Pocket PC. However if you are still searching for the right one, try this software.

[ Magic Button - Pocket PC Task Manager ]

I had been using WisBar Advance, because it skins, and I'm a sucker for that, but even after suspecting that WisBar had less than stellar performance issues, and could have possibly been interfering with normal phone functions, I continued to use it do to the task management capabilities. I rather dislike the WM apps minimizing all of the time, and not closing like I want. So I went looking, and what I found was Magic Button. It works great. My phone is now much quicker and more stable, and thus I am happier.

Nate did point out today that lack of WisBar means lack of cascading start menu, so I went looking again, and I'm now trying out ProgramMenu. So far, so good, but we'll see.

When you distribute an Office document electronically, the document might contain information that you do not want to share publicly, such as information you’ve designated as “hidden” or information that allows you to collaborate on writing and editing the document with others.

I am not of the habit of typing things in documents that could cause any issues, but I will sleep more soundly (like I ever have a problem sleeping, thank God) knowing that no one else "hid" anything suspect in a Microsoft® Word™ document that I forward to a client.

386 to go.

Great Falls Park, a site that is part of the George Washington Memorial Parkway, is an 800 acre park located along the Potomac River 14 miles upriver from Washington D.C. The park is known for two things, its scenic beauty at the head of Potomac River fall line and the historic Patowmack Canal.

Let me just say that the Ikea in College Park is abso-freakin' huge.

[ KooshMoose : Whodathunkit? ]

Mr. Moose, All Ikea's are huge. It is sort of a hallmark of the Ikea organization.

Kid's play area? What the heck?

[ KM ]

It may surprise you, but I have taken trips to Ikea without looking at any furniture or having any intent to purchase. For quite a few years Iman and I would travel to the Ikea so I could have a pastry and coffee for breakfast, she could have the 99¢ kids breakfast, and then she could play for the maximum time allowed.

If, like me, you had no idea of how bed spreads work these days, there's this "new" system where you buy a quilt and stuff it into a quilt cover. GENIUS!

[ KM ]

You should head back up to the showroom and look for the couches that do the same thing. Mine is the Karlanda. I have the sofa and a "bench" (like the sofa but with no back or sides). Both of them have canvas covers that come off completely, just like the pillows, and all can be tossed in the laundry. No expensive upholstery cleaning, and it all fits in a standard machine, not even requiring a laundry mat's super size machine.

Real banana sauce, coffee Frappuccino base featuring the finest Latin American Coffees, coconut syrup, milk and ice. Topped with whip cream and toasted coconut flakes. Also availbe in light.

[ starbucks beverages ]

Also available in crappy flash. You'd think Starbucks® would be able to hire better flash guys (or gals...).

And, this season's Black Apron Exclusive™ is a coffee I recognise! Straight outta Toraja, near my wife's hometown, is the new Kopi Kampung (with much better flash, but could use a tweak or two).

Update: Got the Banana Coconut Frappuccino® Blended Coffee, and I think it's yummy!

Cone Pizza!
Originally uploaded by superlocal.

I'm not sure if pizza in a cone is strange, but what toppings! Hawaiian, Hot Spicy Chicken, Bulgogi, and something I can't read in the bottom right... Oh, and of course Supreme Cone!
