The hardware in my laptop died so now I find myself trying to recreate my system. One of th things I need to recreate is my Firefox plugins. So, this is going to be the list of plugins I always meant to create.
Most of the parts arrived yesterday. The rest should arrive today. The part about shipping I thought was interesting was that while I ordered the parts from two companies the shipments are comming from four states.
Ok, I ordered a Lian-Li PC-60B case. This I ordered from MonarchComputer.com
Wahoo!! I ordered the parts for a new computer from NewEgg.com today.
Humm, it looks like I forgot the case.

I realize that the furor over these memos died down long ago, but I believe this analysis of the Bush National Guard memos is important. It’s no longer available at the original site, so I’m making it available here.
