NetZero is going to start charging for net access. If I still used NetZero, they would charge me $9.95 a month. I've had my DSL for over half a year though, so I'm not too worried about NZ. A lot of people out there use it (with and without the banner) as their main connection to the net, and this would probably make them pretty upset.

For any DSL user out there that uses PPPoE to connect to the net, a new version of RASPPPOE is out.
It was released as a Christmas present on the night of the 24th.
Currently, RASPPOE is THE best PPPoE connection software there is.
It was written from the ground up for Windows 2000, and then ported to Win98/ME.
To get it, you can get it here: http://www.raspppoe.com/
(Windows 95 through Windows XP)

eBay

eBay was not happy with the auction I had. Here is the mail I got from them:

Your auction listing offered to sell potentially infringing material, "Mod Chips" and/or other devices with the capability of permitting the play of pirated product and/or import games on a domestic system. Such devices bypass a copyright security system in the console. By bypassing this protection system the device is infringing the copyrights of the content owner.

They should be happy to know that I did end up backing out of the deal, since it seemed the item was un-replacable. However, I recently got a new 'Action Replay Plus' that works with the games I tried it with, while my old 'Action Replay Plus' did not.

Cold...

i really hate the weather in St Louis now. its freezing cold. colder than i remember it ever being. it has also snowed a lot in the past few weeks, the most snow i've seen in years. one of the worst things about all the cold weather is that my water pipes at my house freeze. they froze like two weeks ago, and after thawing them out and setting something up to keep them warmer, they froze again this morning..! i had to wash my hands and make my baby's bottle this morning with some bottled water we had.

being outside hurts my nose. it feels like my nostrils freeze. windchill was like 50 below zero or something the other day.


just saw this.. had to add it. :)

news system

I just installed a new news system to make posting news easier to the page.

Before, I would edit the HTML of my main page, scroll down to where the news is stored, and then add whatever it was I wanted to add.

Having this new news system will allow me to update my page much easier, and even be able to easily update it when I'm away from home.

Of course, since I'm still just testing this news script, things might look messed up (as things did in my Forum for a day or two)...

If stuff simply doesn't seem to work (after a few days of use), I will simply put all the news from the script into my main News file.. Or something. ;p

w00t! It's my 21st birthday today!

There has been some on-offical tradition that some people have that they buy alcohol at midnight when they turn 21. I couldn't get any alcohol at midnight, because almost every place I went to kept saying state law didn't allow the sale of alcohol at that specific time of day, on that specific day of the week (Monday, 12 AM). Wal-Mart said state law was 12:30, and every other place said state law was 12:00. I was told that Tuesday through Sunday had a time of 1:30 AM before alcohol wasn't supposed to be sold. None of that shit makes sense to me. I was quite dissapointed that I didn't get to acquire my first "legal" alcoholic drink ever. I had been looking forward to it for several years. I had gone with friends on their 21st birthday before when they got alcohol for the first time.
