So, again last night, for the longest time, I tried to capture. Grabbed the captures fine, but the files, even after conversion, were entirely too big. Behindshadows2 has notified me of a few things to try and I'll be calling him tonight, to get it squared away. Thanks bro!

Today is filled w/ car shopping for the wifee, then watching the fireworks display. Should be an interesting day, filled w/ haggling salesman.

For those that celebrate this day, have a safe and happy 4th of July.

What's up with you?

• QOTD: Got any plans for the 4th of July weekend?

Happy Birthday to the following OS'ers!

QOTD: Supposed to be going to the beach today but the weather is not looking too promising.
I also plan to barbeque, I have some Tuna steaks that are looking to get singed!


Good luck on with the car shopping Steve! I have to do it twice. Just finished getting one for the wife and I am due in August!

Knew about the "5 Best Windows Tools" already, but for anyone that doesn't have them and use them on a regular basis, great link.

Good find on those 11 sites to save money during the recession, the Open Bar Finder is as the guy says! Too bad I don't live in NYC.

I have decided to get a Wii over the PS3, my wife is actually really excited about the Wii Fit. I will make her a gamer yet!

QOTD: Well we were going to go tubing today, but well the weather doesn't appear to be cooperating with those plans. Tomorrow there is the family party on my Mother-in-law's side, Sunday there is a party on my Father-in-law's side. Unfortunately the Sunday party is all the way up in Ascutney, Vermont, like 90 minutes from here. I wanted to go find a TRU to go Wii hunting first, maybe in the morning I guess.
