I'm syncing over Bluetooth

I finally got my Tungsten T3 syncing with Palm Desktop on my Win XP laptop over Bluetooth. I had been trying to do it and finally found a post on the web about creating a profile on the PDA for the Bluetooth which worked and to select "Modem" on the PC and to select a pseudo COM port created to use the Bluetooth connection. Now if I could just charge the battery wirelessly, I'd be all set.

I've found geotagging


Pretty punkins all in a row

I have found that you can geotag a photo in Flickr to show where it was taken. I love this. I was actually thinking recently that putting GPS into a digital camera would allow you to do this automatically. I also see that Flickr will detect geotagging data in EXIF data in a photo which was tagged somewhere else. So it makes sense that a camera should be able to do this.

Pieter and Nicole came to America this week and we went on a tour of New England with them. We had great weather until the last day, when it clouded up and rained a bit. Ellyn and I got to do some kayaking and the kayaks were great storage for bringing back the loot from shopping.

Conservatives only think with half their brains.

Find the money? For crying out loud, we HAD the money before the numb-nuts Republicans got into office and tossed it to the four winds with rebates and tax cuts. We had the budget and the deficit under control under Clinton and all that was shit-canned in 2000. We would also have a lot more money if we were not throwing it by the truck-loads down the rathole known as "Bushes Dirty War". If we want to "vote all these things in", we have to first vote all the Republicans OUT!

(Update: 11/9/06) DONE! YAY!

Yom Kippur in Boston



We are spending the High Holy Days in the Boston area at Temple Shir Tikva. Rabbi Gold is much more inspiring to us than anything we could get in Danbury. Plus, we get to worship with Brian.
