The Story So Far
The Story So Far is the second in my series from Arizona Dead Arm. It’s a great song with a punchy hook. Don’t listen to it in your car though, it has a tendency to make people have a “lead foot” while driving.

Sugar Consumption on Rise Worldwide
Reuters: “Our diet keeps getting sweeter, due in large part to the popularity of sugary soft drinks and other sweetened beverages, according to a new study. North Carolina researchers report that the average daily consumption of sugar and other calorie-containing sweeteners worldwide jumped 74 calories from 1962 to 2000. In the U.S., the jump in sweet calories was even greater - 83 calories per day from 1977 to 1996. Most of those extra sweet calories - 80 percent - came from sugary soft drinks and fruit drinks, researchers report in the November issue of the journal Obesity Research.”[via Diet Blog]
Aside from this I still like sugar. Maybe because the alternative is I either get really sick or I die. Sugar substitutes don’t agree with me.
I’ve been kinda avoiding fixing the template so it renders in Mozilla and Safari properly but I finally decided to spend an hour or so and make it right. Thanks Joe and Al for pointing out the errors. I think I’ve got the kinks worked out.
There is one little bug that I know about but I think it’ll never get used as it’s on a long scrolling page. Sorry if you find it, there wasn’t a work around readily available at the moment.
Watch out. It’s virus season and Mimail is circulating again.

Mimail.J targets customers of web payment system PayPal, and is the latest “phishing” scam, which tries to dupe users of financial services.The worm travels as an attachment to a convincing e-mail, but once opened copies itself to other addresses.
Experts warn that the Windows virus is set to spread more rapidly and say users should ignore and delete it. [BBC]
Thanks to the guys I work I got to see the Sharks and Rangers face off last night in San Jose. Looking around the arena I noticed there were a lot of empty seats. The last time I’d been to the Shark Tank had been prior to September 11th and the fall of dotcommunism. At that time the Sharks were starting a fresh season and the arena was packed. Seats were hard to come by and we were lucky to find any at all. I guess lots of business did well during the dotcom days. Oh well.
Sharks and Rangers tied it up in OT btw, 2-2.
I’ve got a friend over in New York making his way in the music scene with some pretty kick-ass tunage that I thought I’d like to pass along to the loyalist of The Daily Thing. I’m going to post several of their songs over the next few weeks so give a listen and see if you like. The first tune from Arizona Dead Arm (ADA) is Conversation.
Every so often Zempt gives me an error “MySQL server has gone away.” It didn’t even tell me it was leaving! Jeez! How RUDE!
My brother is home (in the US not here) from Iraq just long enough to get married and head back. That’s atleast a few weeks I won’t be wondering if someone put an RPG into the vehicle he was driving or mortared him in his bed at night.
