Gee, Mail ! -The 500 lb Gorilla on Yahoo's Back
Well, Looks like GMail is REALLY Taking off. How many of you have been to
GMail Swap Yet? It's getting almost rediculous.
Some really neat offers for GMail accounts. Everything from Post Cards to Web Design to Domain Name Hosting.
With the same spirit, I'm going to leave 1 (One) GMail account invite hidden somewhere in my blog tonight. :) I'm going to leave it up until someone finds it. Should be interesting what happens.
If/when you find it, E-mail me or leave a comment letting me know how you found out that it was here, and if you found it right away, or you had to dig to find it. And PLEASE, I beg, send me a picture of yourself that I can post here. Preferably one with the invite (printed, or on a monitor next to or behind you) in the picture.
Have fun!
Tony

An append to my last post: It truly has sucked to live in Florida this year. We (my family) have weathered out Tropical Storm Frances, Hurricane Ivan (aka: Crazy Ivan). The Central part of our State had Hurricanes Charley, Frances AND Ivan. Tony
This is the State where I live. Panama City lies in the Northwest (Panhandle) portion.

Lexx And Terry in the Morning
After taking my son to school, I just
love to listen to the Lexx and Terry show on the stereo. I look forward to "Drunk Bitch Friday" . They get some girl, get her to come to their studio, get her smashed off her ass, and let her be herself.
Hell, L&T alone are funny enough.:) I get them here in Panama City, Fl. on 97.7 . Leave me some feedback and let me know if/where on your tuner You get them.

It's all about Software!
Well, since I have this place to voice my opions and views, I thought I'd give you my thoughts on software. I'm not goint to tell you what You should use, just what I use, and how it has affected how I compute.
I Highly recommend everything on this list.
1. Web-Surfing -
Mozilla Firfox
2. E-Mail -
GMail -Read below to find out how to get GMail
3. E-Mail -
Thunderbird E-Mail Client (Made by
Mozilla)
4. Operating System -If you MUST use Windows, then by all means, use Windows XP SP2. Otherwise, I recommend
Linux, or Unix, or even Mac. (Although, I'm not a Mac fan)
These are the basic necessities for using a computer nowadays. I'll publish more about software soon. A complete list (after I get some shut-eye) will be available with links to find it.
Later,
Tony

GMail -Google's Evolutionary Web-Based E-mail
I've recently received an invite to Google's
GMail. I was wondering around the net and found a site called
Gmail Swap and found that people are Giving GMail account invitations away ( for those of you who don't know, you can only get a GMail account by invitation only, as they are still in beta testing ) . The site's called
Gmail Swap for a good reason, If you need (or want) a GMail account, you can usually find someone there offering one for a post card, a note, an e-mail, something silly (those are the one's I like), or just plain out Nothing at all.
The reason I've written about this here, is because there are poeple Paying upwards of $5.00 US on
E-Bay and other auction and sales/swap websites. I find this almost ridiculous. Although, the thought of going to E-Bay and selling a few of my own has been a bit tempting to me. :)
If you want a GMail account invite, or if you want to Give one away, I HIGHLY recommend
this site.
Convoluted Insanity
Shallow waters in the Blogger Sea
I've been surfing the blogs this morning and noticed something. People are putting code in their blog to change the way my Mouse Pointer looks! (You guys/gals, if I wanted to change my pointer, I can do it myself. K?)
Not to mention some of them are totally un-intelligible. Mirrored lettering, bad grammar (wich I can put up with, seeing that some bloggers are just kids) and the dreaded CAPS LOCK KEY seeming to be dis-functional. :)
Well. Who am I to say these are Bad Blogs? Hell, as far as some people are concerned, I have a bad blog. This is the net, and people are entitled to their own opinion. I just hope I don't see any more drag queens and transexual porn blogs. Jeesh. That's Got to be the worst the blogging world can come up with.

Me, my Wife and her cousin's Baby
First Entry
Ok, now a blog has been created. Man, am I good, or what? :) JK.
Seriously though, I sat up late last night hammering on someone who was spamming people and promising them a GMail invite, and I ran across this guy giving them away for some graphics work -I couldn't turn down the possibility of creating something and having it out there for others to see. So I did it.
You can check it out at http://ekupes.blogspot.com/ . It's the graphic at the top of his page (A damn nice page with loads of nice content, if I do say so myself) .
I'll write again soon.
