Some Marshmallow facts For those who think you can't learn anything channel surfing Kraft makes 100,000,000,000 marshmallows a year Marshmallows are extruded, cut, and coated with starch. What's in a Fluffer-nutter Sandwich ? Good sturdy bread good peanutbutter marshmallow Fluff To server: Cut diagonally Circus Peanuts orange in color, banana flavored, peanut shaped To get fresh Circus Peanuts: sugar, water, corn syrup heated & cooled Add gelatin & powdered sugar Pour into starch molds. heated to "set" skin & Cure overnight. 9:18:21 PM    Notes [] Fun with lexicals Editing a DCL command procedure 1000 miles away can get frustrating on a slow telnet connection... and saving early & often has its' advantages. I've been listening to the same album all day. Very different from what I usually listen to but it seems to fit what I'm doing today. 4:23:05 PM    Notes [] Must be Monday... Getting started on a Monday morning can be fun... let's see where the day takes us... New work music to start the day off... Will they listen ? I think I'll add to the Steve Jobs chorus. He's right. Are Read Receipts evil ? I use MS Outlook for work-related e-mail. Have done so for the last year since it became a "corporate standard" around here. Html is for web pages, not for e-mail. Luckily, with a little effort, I can use Outlook without resorting to using html in e-mail messages I send other people. I can't find a way to prevent html from working in e-mail and still use Outlook. Over the last year I've been able to tweak it so at least it's ?mostly harmless". But now, apparently, I've run across something I can't control. Read Receipts in Outlook don't appear to have an on/off switch. And worse yet, I have no way of knowing if one has been sent except by accident. It doesn't appear to be logged anywhere. Very un-user friendly. This verges on "evil". I haven't yet decided where, on the scale of "software evilness" this resides. 11:48:27 AM    Notes []
