j.ello | by the byte
I was watching "Who
wants to be a Millionaire?" tonight... and for those who missed it, a
fairly smart fellow had made it to the $500,000 level... being pretty much a
smug little jerk to Regis. Not that Regis doesn't deserve it... but
the first rule of television is never dog the host... it's just bad
form. BUT, the guy completely redeemed himself in my eyes. The
last question, for a million bucks was "Which president appeared on
Laugh In?" Looking as though they had finally stumped Mr.
Brainiac, he asked to use a life-line to call his dad. When his father answered, the guy
told him, "Actually, I don't need your help, I just wanted to call and
tell you that I'm going to win a million dollars." and proceeded
to answer the question. That takes balls of lead... and I respect
that.
Which
brings me to something that you can win. I appreciate all of my
readers and I wanted to do something for you as we go into the new
millennium. Most of you are subscribers, but there is a rather large
contingent who read the report daily through the web site or even through
the program Comics 2.1, which now features the ability to download the most
recent report. :) I appreciate all of you... so, while I put the
details together on Subscription Contest #3... I want to have a little
contest for which you don't need to do anything but take a guess.
I guess I'll call it the j.ellennium
contest. All you need to do is guess how many j.ello subscribers
there will be at midnight, January 1, 2000. The person closest to the
right number wins an Intellimouse Explorer. No one is sponsoring this
one, it's just my way of saying thanks for being here, reading, and helping
the list grow. Every reader can play, whether you're subscribed or
not... because ALL the readers are important. It's your continued
support and recommendations that have made the difference.
I can't give you much in the line of a hint,
BUT... the report has been going since May... there are more than
5,000 and less than 50,000. So keep it in that range. Go to the
j.ellennium contest page to make
a guess! :)

This
Is True
http://www.thisistrue.com/ |
A classic mailing list... which I have
neglected to mention until now. This is True is a weekly
syndicated column by Randy Cassingham. He brings bizarre tales
to light... and they're all true. :) His writing reminds me of
Paul Harvey in many ways... well... that is... if Paul Harvey ever
talked about people who are still alive. :)

While
still a beta product, I think this is already one of the better
renaming utilities I have seen. Very fast, with options that
most renamers just don't have.
