The Fabulous goodness of FireFox Extensions..

While at home this weekend, I updated my FireFox with the extensions I use here at work and found a few additional ones I should post about.

FasterFoxHere They Are:
My favorite so far out of this bunch has to be the Mouse Gestures. This extension is one of the best so far. This is how it works. All this is the default setup for the MouseGestures. Right Click and Hold then Draw a Line From Top to Bottom. This would open a new window. To Open a New Tab, simply draw a line from Bottom to top. Go to the Previous page, Draw a horizontal line from to the Left, Move Foward a page Draw a horizontal line to the Right. Duplicate Tab draw a line Down then Up then back Down. Move to a different tab Up then Left, or Up then Right. Check a lil demo I made for ya. [ View ] You can also check out some more screen captures here.

I also Can not forget the Swedish Chef! This extension allows the Swedish chef to translate the site for you.

Alarm Clock Puzzle...

Karen would love me to have this, Because I would actually have to wake up to Snooze or turn the damn thing off. I will admit, Im lazy and I will set the alarm for 5:30am just to wake up at 630. Yes, I hit the snooze that often.

What the Alarm clock does is fire the pieces in to the air, and then makes its wonderful soothing sound until you put the pieces back in again.

Check it out here, Or even buy it: [ Link ]

Honestly...

Whats the point to having a Network Admin. at your work if the network administrator doesn't have access to everything he needs. Seriously, Why am I here then. I need full access to everything, So when an employee has an issue with something I'm able to fully help them out. I shouldn't have to tell them, "[Wuh-oh] I can't do that, you'll have to call Mr. Wonderful for this." Believe it or not there are serveral things here that I do not have access to, that I should have access to. Thus is amazing to me why I do not have access to these things. One of which the General Sales Manager does, and I don't. He is in Sales, I am the Companies Network & Systems Adimistrator, (or at least I thought I was) To my knowledge I should have the access to setting up user accounts and removing them for certain websites that service uses and NOT Sales. So why can I not have this access? What am I going to do, Bring the company down? why would I. If I realyl wanted too there are other ways in doing this, And If I really wanted to I can have access to these things, but if they see I use them they, I should say Mr. wonderfull will have a shit fit. He no longer works down here, so why does he still have his lil grubby hand here. The place already runs better than when he was here. Our third party companies servers' and systems don't here from us, and if they do its because something on their end and not ours. I don't hear bad things about what I do here nor do I hear that things suck around here because of me. If thats the word then I would like to know, but I have not been told otherwise. I just don't understand this concept of his of keeping me out of these things. To tell you the truth, when I first started here I wasn't shown anything but a few small things. In fact On January 1 there was a virus that got into the system, in which I figured out what and when and how to fix it. However, I was not told about a certain pc that seemed to be the culprit (wow, I cant believe I just used that word), so after cleaning every pc in the this place it hit again, WTF I thought. So then I ask, I need to know where Every pc is in this place and I went out on a hunt and found it and stoped it. Would have been nice to know about this lil guy because I had to go and clean the place over again just to be safe. And Not even a Thanks Chad, or Good Job, Nice Work or even a pat on the ass with a "Good Game!". And I still work here, Jesus I need a new employer.

Gonna Have a go at the eBay thing...


Gonna have a try at selling on eBay. Bought a 14.1" LCD Display for a Dell Latitude 100L because I had aquired one for Free from work, but the only thing about it was that the Display was bad. Thus I changed the display, and about 3 days latter dell decided to call and want the Laptop back, So I had to change the display back to the one with an issue.

Want to see my Item [Click Here], Hey Need it? Bid on it!

For those like me whom have yet to sell anything I shall let you know how it went. Well, The setup was fine and easy, Quick and simple. Im just curious on how it will list within the searches because I did not pay for the higher listing fee. The Item will last for 7 days, After that I might put it back on, I will be charged 7 dollars for this ebay posting. I shall post in 7 days about my ebay selling adventure.

Here go look for something on eBay.com.

Finally a game for programmers... C-JUMP

c-jump: Ski & Snowboard Race boardgame. Discover fundamentals of computer programming by playing a board game!
c-jump helps children to learn basics of programming languages, such as C, C++ and Java. This is great. and for 30 bucks ($US) you can not go wrong.


By moving around the board , entering loops, branching under conditional and switch statements, the players gain physical experience of a complete program. Understanding of the internal action of a computer is essential to understanding what software is. Static program causes dynamic process in the computer. By playing the game, players see this process as physical and spacial motion.

Soruce: c-jump.com
You can buy it from the site or from eBay.com

Take me to a Place where I haven't been there once.

Ok, so I will stop and go to bed now and yet again suffer from Lack of insomnia.

...

Why do places that are open 24 hours have "OPEN" signs?

You Know...

I was asked the other day a not so perplexing question.

Why do Drive through ATM machines have Braile on them?

Because the Drive-through ATM machines are the Same machines as Regular WalkUp ATM machines.

What I want to know is How do the dogs know what an ATM machine is.
