Show 057 will be a few hours late.

Show 057: Let's Give Paul A Call will be a few hours late this week. Monday we had pretty bad thunderstorms around here, and my power and internet connection were going up and down all day, so no real work was accomplished on that day. Then on Tuesday my wife and myself received some great news, and I was trying to put the show together in the middle of making lots of calls and making plans dealing with the news. Maybe I'll tell all of you about that next week.

Show 52 Will Be Late

Well, after a quick review of my tax papers before I send them out tomorrow, I discovered a serious error. I did it again, and wound up paying a lot more than I had thought I originally would. My wife wasn't satisfied with this, so I did it all again with the same result.

So I went online and did it at H&R Block's web site. Same.

Apologies for the upcoming Show: 044.

I just wanted to apologize in advance for the upcoming show, and for anyone who dropped in on our first ever ustream.

First of all, we weren't able to set aside a block of time to figure out the ustream stuff before we went live, so we were figuring it out right there, in front of all of you. Sorry if we bored you to death while we fumbled around with it. There were a few people with us at the beginning but they dropped out after a while. One stayed with us till the end, so thank you, whoever you are.

Trouble with show 041.

Just wanted to drop all of you a couple lines to let you know this week's show will be a little late. I'm having trouble getting logged in to mevio.com to get the show uploaded.

I'll get it squared away and you can bask in the TGT podcast goodness this afternoon.

Uninstalling Managed Symantec Antivirus Client With Forgotten Password

This week at my job, I had a problem with uninstalling Symantec's antivirus. Not a big deal, you say? That's what I thought too, but it turned out to be a major hassle.

A hassle with what turned out to be a simple answer.

With a new year comes new calendars, and here are a bunch of resources to find the one to fit your needs:

Burbank businessman hits eject button on VHS format.

If you’re still an owner of a VCR (Remember those?), you may soon find it difficult to find anything new to play on it.

The last movie to be released on VHS was “A History of Violence” back in 2006, but you’ve been able to find older movies on the ancient format in places like dollar stores and your local grocery for a few dollars.
