TECHNOLOGY: Don’t have a url domain watcher!

What we don’t have!

My high school chum’s recent obit was a shock. What was even more a shock was that his domain expired in September.

So here’s a “what we don’t have”!

There’s no way to to detect the expiration of a domain that would indicate trouble. Like a bouncing email address.

We need from the old western movies the logical equivalent of those concealed indians that watch the cavalry fort for activity.

I need a whole bunch of them their “indians”, just sitting and watch a slew of email addresses, web sites, and domain names.

Know of any such?

FROM MY FACEBOOK WALL

Personally you can call me “ebeneezer” before the three visitors. It just seems that bad things come at the end of the year. Wall Street layoffs (got me once)! Holiday party gaffes (some are funny since they didn’t happen to me and have led me to the “No drinking around Colleague, Coworkers, or Bosses” rule), and DWIs (hasn’t happened to me; not bloody likely either; see item two)! Divorces, Separations, Abuse, and all amount of familial and marital discord! Just seems to be more frequent at this time of year. So, I’ll just be the grinch over the corner. And, I hope the Intelligent Designer, the Universe, or whatever star you follow allows you to come through unscathed and happy. Now if we could just do something about that other plague of Biblical proportions which sucks the life out — politicians, then maybe I COULD celebrate.

If you like making lists and setting out your resolutions, take a look at Your 100 Things. This site organizes goals into 16 categories — you can also see other people’s goals. I have my own resolution charts that keep me plenty busy (email me at grubin [at] gretchenrubin [dot] [com] if you’d like to take a look, for inspiration) but this looks like another great way to think through and commit to goals.

Sort of like Joes Goals in multiple dimensions.

You don’t? TOO BAD!

This morning 26 November 07 @ 0730 est …

… on Route 295 Southbound Mile Post 42 ….

… a white East Brunswick police SUV MG69758…

… in excess of 75 (Your serf’s speed limit is 65) …

… in lots of traffic …

… tailgating the poor peon in his way …

… never left the left lane!

Did I mention it was raining and, despite the popular notion to the contrary, even in NJ, bodies in motion tend to remain in motion.

Any way I am sure that he was hurrying to get somewhere to protect and serve me. (Isn’t that the “party” line?)

Arghhh!

For some reason, I just didn’t feel very safe with him on MY road. Yes, mine! You’ve stolen enough from me in gas, property, registration, and income tax. What section of road is MINE?

Arghhhhhhh!

P.S.: Dear reader, I don’t write these every day. Just when I ARRIVE early for work, particularly agitated aggravated and have to wait for my employer workstation to get online.
