Got that $50 ready yet?

Don't forget that July 28th is Sysadmin day... http://www.sysadminday.com/ CW

Did you know that most cable internet companies (including Comcast) throttle your internet usage? If you download too much, they cut way back on your bandwidth or even threaten to cancel your service. They offer "unlimited internet service" as well. I hope, for your sake, that you have DSL or dialup because otherwise you're paying for something advertised as unlimited that really isn't! CW

Gregg Williams.

The same kind of sick sad morons who (on this very board) were talking about shooting GW as he drove down the thruway out of Buffalo?

Game isn't on a regular channel - only through Center Ice. CW

Is it generally expected that you tip the vendors at sporting events? I don't usually buy anything, but when I do, I've never tipped...

Why can't Peters, if he's that good, stay at RT? We need one of those, too...

Yeah, I saw that. They came from behind nicely - were down 8-4 at the half. Too little, too late. CW

For those who don't know, the game is on OLN on DirecTV - channel 608.

The Bandits are in the playoffs and are favorites to win the whole thing.... http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=45456 CW

I moved away nearly 13 years ago... I root for the Bills/Sabres (especially when they play the Wild!), so I'm hardly a traitor or anything. CW

Most likely... But I gotta root for the Swarm, since I have season tickets and all Just checked attendance, and Buffalo does well. The smallest crowd I saw aws 10,400, and the largest was over 14,000.

Anyone watching the Bandits? How popular are they in Buffalo? I know they used to be relatively big when I was there (I was at the first ever Bandits game, against the New York Saints (now defunct) ). First round of the playoffs are tomorrow, and the Swarm (in their 2nd year of existance) are the 4th seed and on the road against Buffalo. The Bandits had the best record in the league (tied with Portland at 11-5). Minnesota is 8-8. To draw more interest, I'll provide these links: http://www.mnswarm.com/PerformanceTeam2006.asp I'd link to the Bandettes, but it apparantly requires registration. Go figure. CW

CHIPS AND GUAC! CHIPS AND GUAC! CHIPS AND GUAC! Sorry... Chipotle is a big sponsor of the Minnesota Swarm lacrosse team (who, by the way, will CRUSH the Buffalo Bandits tomorrow!!!!). A few weeks ago, down 9-2 in the 3rd quarter to the Toronto Rock, the fans started chanting "CIHPS AND GUAC!" because if the team won, everyone won free chips and guac. The Swarm came back to win by a goal, and held the Rock scoreless for the entire 4th quarter (first time they ever held a team scoreless for an entire quarter). Awesome game, so that's become the unofficial chant of the Swarm. http://www.mnswarm.com/team/Game.asp?game_id=13 Oh, their burritos are really good too CW

A county in NY makes it illegal to *NOT* secure your wireless network: http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/W/WIR...EMPLATE=DEFAULT http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/internet/04/2...y.ap/index.html Interesting, no? CW

One of my coworkers just bought an ethanal truck, and he loves it. It helped that there's a station that sells ethanol right by his house, and that it's quite a bit cheaper. He says he gets the same gas milage as well. CW

Those are great CW

Speaking of features, next year's Prius has "auto park" in it, meaning it will park in a spot or parallel park for you automatically. How cool is that? It's been available on the Prius in Japan for a year or two already. CW

Yeah, that's true.

I frequently sign my initials, but as was pionted out, it's a habit becuse that's how I sign emails. I'm kinda shocked that anyone would find that worthy of a topic, but then again, I guess this is TSW... CW

Any video footage? You know, so we can evaluate you and give you some tips?

And who can pay any lawsuits you may need to file.
