Deal of the moment...

RadioShack 20-044 Scanner Antenna - January 11, 2002

Recently discontinued, this popular model was also sold as the Scantenna and Monitenna by various dealers and manufacturers. It comes with 50' of RG-6/U cable, a 300-to-50 ohm balun, F-type to BNC adapter and mounting hardware. Talk about your bargains for a measly $20!

And don't let this tiny picture fool you. This is 8'5" tall and 26" wide.

Palm to unveil OS 5 with multitasking, multithreading capabilities.. InfoWorld: Palm to unveil OS 5 with multitasking, multithreading capabilities.

Marvin forwards some timely quotes.....

 

No poor bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making other bastards die for their country.

General George Patton (1885 - 1945)

 

Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas ... with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether.

Hunter S. Thompson, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"

 

A cap of good acid costs five dollars and for that you can hear the Universal Symphony with God singing solo and the Holy Ghost on drums.

Hunter S. Thompson

 

A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Douglas Adams, "Mostly Harmless"

 

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair.

Douglas Adams, "Mostly Harmless"

 

The idea that Bill Gates has appeared like a knight in shining armour to lead all customers out of a mire of technological chaos neatly ignores the fact that it was he, by peddling second-rate technology, who led them into it in the first place.

Douglas Adams, The Guardian
