Spice Rack

And here I thought I was compulsive about trying to keep my spice rack in alphabetical order.  v a u g h n a u s t i n  takes it to a whole new level. (Which brings back the memory of the time my sister visited, and decided to do me a favor by organizing my spice rack.  As she was lining the bottles up by size, type of container, and manufacturer, she failed to notice that they were already in alphabetical order.  Thanks, sis.)

National Do Not Call Registry

At work, three of our four incoming lines were formerly residential lines, and we have become accustomed to two or three telephone solicitations per line per day, usually robocalls.   Even when one just ignores the line because it isn’t the main number, it is still very annoying and a break in one’s concentration.  

Tuesday, I finally took the time to enter the three lines into the National Do Not Call Registry. I didn’t expect to see any effect for the month or so that the law allows the telemarketers to scrub their lists, but today we had just one  non-legitimate call.  I’ll be very interested to see if this is just a fluke.

Google Themes

Google now has a themes gallery for those who personalize their google home page.  The gallery holds both Google created themes and some created by other people.  I like the one of the world map with the current area illuminated by the sun.
