Sunday Stuff!

Your weekly dose of small amounts of linkage to carry you on....

:: I confess to being weary of Hollywood's incessant need to "reboot" things, but I must also confess to being mildly intrigued at the notion of rebooting Columbo, that wonderful working-class detective in the crappy coat who covered up his brilliance with an "Aw shucks" style. It would depend on the casting, of course, but I'd be interested.

:: Twelve-year-old humor alert on this next one! A lot of companies auto-generate their e-mail addresses for employees by taking some specific combination of letters from the first and last names. This occasionally has some unfortunate results. (I just love when the IT guys respond "Uh, we can't change it." I'm always amused when IT people say that they simply "can't" make the computers do what they want. Nobody can just go in and delete on e-mail address and manually add another one? There are no provisions for this?)

:: Want to see pictures of kitties captioned with quotes from HP Lovecraft? Sure you do.



More next week!
