What's amazing is that I'm sitting on the beach in Aruba, watching the Tour De France live on my PC via a Wi-Fi connection. Lance is still the overall leader although Vinokourov had a massive ride today. He attacked at 28km and won the stage! He was ahead by over 3 minutes going over the Col Du Galibier. I guess he was pretty upset about getting spanked yesterday.
The only problem I'm having is that my laptop battery is about to die. Go figure.
I'm an average joe, my family comes first while I try to make a difference in the world. This blog is part journal, part advice, and part compendium! Enjoy!

Hello from Aruba! Here is a look at some palm trees outside our hotel room. The ocean is just beyond the trees to the right. It is morning here and my lens had a little dew on it. I'll post more later!

Problems with HP 2000C
Trying to find support software (Toolbox) downloads for the HP 2000C printer.
Apparently this printer has chips in the printheads! Not so good that they can have date issues!

pdaPhoneHome.com Archive - Wireless Sync problem
When trying to synchronize my smartphone (Samsung i600) with my MSOutlook through Verizon Wireless's Wireless Sync, the calendar on the phone was deleted. Apparently, one needs to open the calendar feature at least once before performing a wireless sync.
pdaPhoneHome.com Archive - Wireless Sync problem: "Well, according to a VZW FAQ or User manual (don't remember which) you need to open the calendar app at least once on your treo before installing wireless sync. Did you do that? Apparently opening it, cause some file to be created that is needed by wireless sync. If the file isn't there, wireless sync will fail. Not sure if this is the problem. Hope it helps."
