I need 5 tickets to this weekend’s GA Tech vs VA Tech football game. Will pay up to $75 each, plus all the keg beer you can drink at our tailgate. The seats don’t all have to be together.
Please email me if you have any to sell.
Nice. I just got my IE VML patch. I didn’t expect this for another two weeks. Way to go Microsoft! The next update wasn’t supposed to occur until October 10th.
I hope moving forward they continue to release critical updates when they are needed, rather than just during their normal once per month predictable cycle. Save the less critical updates for the monthly download.
(I’ll still stick with Firefox though)
On Saturday we won BeamerBall.com’s prestigious Most Valuable Tailgate award. Which means we got free beer koozies and a signed Frank Beamer bobble head. Yay!
This year’s tailgates have been about the same size as last year’s so far, however this year we certainly have more stuff. Our canopy is twice as big, we finally have a generator, we’re running our iPods through a real a stereo rather than running my truck for 10 hours straight, and we’ve gone through 4 kegs in 3 games. But if BeamerBall.com thought that Saturday’s tailgate was something, just wait until we break out the fire pit. (looks like we’ll need it for the Georgia Tech game)
Apparently my previous post doesn’t show up well in some RSS readers, including Webmail.us’s reader. The regexp rules are rewritten below, with the less-than html bracket characters replaced with LT.
/etc/postfix/body_checks.regexp: /LTv:rect/ REPLACE safety: MS VML tag removed /LTv:fill/ REPLACE safety: MS VML tag removed
Folks, add this to your Postfix servers ASAP. Microsoft’s unpatched VML vulnerability will probably be exploited via email within the next couple of days:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
body_checks =
pcre:/etc/postfix/body_checks.regexp
/etc/postfix/body_checks.regexp:
/<v:rect/ REPLACE <safety: MS VML tag removed>
/<v:fill/ REPLACE <safety: MS VML tag removed>

We launched this "Idea Central" website last week to allow our customers to tell us the features that they would like us to build. Webmail.us customers (or anybody) can post an idea, and then other customers can vote on that idea. Popular ideas rise to the top of the list. Currently Admin access to all mailboxes is the most popular, with 14 votes.
Popular ideas will get built. I’ll say it twice… Popular ideas will get built.
We are gearing up for Hackathon 3.0 on Saturday, October 28th. Get your ideas submitted to Idea Central soon so that other customers can vote on it, and perhaps entice one of our software developers to choose that as their Hackathon project. (check out the cool stuff we built at previous Hackathons: 1.0, 2.0).
If you have really big idea, one of our programmers may even take it on as their 20% project.
Those who know me know that I tend to eat very healthy. Granola is one of my favorite things to have for breakfast (or whenever), but it is not always the healthiest.
Sometime around 1996 or 1997, my brother, mom and dad and I stayed at Cheeca Lodge in Islamorada in the Florida Keys to do some deep sea fishing. While I was there, I came across the best granola that I have ever had. Most granolas have fillers like puffed rice and other crap. And the majority of them have a lot of oils or butter and are not very healthy. This granola was different. It was simple… baked oats with a little bit of sugary flavor, and thats it. I don’t know if the resort we were staying at made it fresh there, or if they bought it packaged, but it was awesome. And I stupidly left that trip without asking them where they got it.
Whole foods stores usually have some form of this type of granola in their scoop bins, but it is usually expensive and we don’t have a decent whole foods store in Blacksburg. The closest packaged granola that I have found is Quaker 100% Natrual Granola, Oats & Honey. However it is loaded with fat and you can taste the butter (or whatever) in it.
Well, last night I found Back to Nature Classic Granola in the health foods section at Kroger. It is exactly what I had in Florida. The ingredients are just oats and a few fruit syrups and other natural flavors, maltodextrin, and vitamin E. 1/2 cup has 2.5g of fat, 4g of fiber, 6g of protein. And it was just $2 with my Kroger Plus card.
I’d go back and buy a bunch of it, but it doesn’t have any artificial preservatives in it, so the shelf life probably isn’t as long as the junk they sell in the normal cereal isle. Good for them.
After 10 years the search is over. Hopefully Kroger will keep this item stocked.
