I guess I am evil... My wife doesnt like to use her headset...
So I would be thinking... If I don't clean the sim card, she will be forced to use the headset to avoid the smell...
Bonus points for blaming the dog...
... Hold on, the marriage counselor just quit... AGAIN!

I had my last straw with GoDaddy as a host.
Site was down for no reason for 3 hours. Tech support could tell me nothing.
Decided to move to SmarterASP.net - Unlimited ASP.NET Web Hosting[^]
I already had a free account there for 60 days and there are a number of reasons to move:
1. better / easier control panel
2. signalR app which I couldn't get working at GoDaddy works with copy deployment.
3. Cheaper something like $16 for 3 mos at smarterasp.net versus $9.89 per month for equivalent at GoDaddy.
4. GoDaddy was never any help with any tech problems. I supported it myself.
Anyways, it took quite a while to get my junky web sites copied over but I've finally done it.
I use DotNetBlogEngine and it took me a long while to figure out how to get the blogs moved over for one particular site, but I finally got it at 12:45am local time last night. 
I honestly almost said forget about migration and I'll just create new web sites.

Yeah, when you get down to the ugly details, there is so much to do it is ridiculous.
I love technology and work in it and go home and play in it and then...
...(when it doesn't work, which is often) I hate it!! 
Ambivalence is the way to go with technology.

Between this post and another recent contribution (Grooming link), I can confidentially say you ought to go out and renew those prescriptions . . . make it a double.

I'm puzzled by your unfriendly reaction. I get the impression that the subject (grooming) is taboo for you. In Holland grooming has been in the news a lot lately and it is discussed openly. Just try www.Google.nl and search on 'grooming'. Don't you think it's good to talk about things that are wrong ?

I've been wanting to leave GoDaddy, but the give me a number of features for the domain hosting that the others only do as extra$.
All I use them for is to host the domain and forward to where I actually keep the website(s). The free included email forwards, including a catchall, is quite useful.
I'd like an alternative as that owner of theirs, Bob Parson, is a major jackass.

age of real-time, age of virtual faces,
age of storm-surge of perfect spilling
over imagination's floodwalls to drown
imperfection with images so far beyond
nightsweat's fear memories must recuse
themselves to avoid insanity's verdict
here is the shadow of a forgotten body
singing in a dance of fingers clicking:
a child, lost in the new meme's parade,
holding a broken toy other people told
him was a life in the digital eternity
where he'd never face lonely's sorrows
all of the old now the roadbed for the
machinery of always ever new to travel

This pathetic flea on a past-his-use-by-date tick in the ear of a homeless three-legged dog howling at the moon of literature with his last breath ... is.

That is particularly distasteful - I'm damned if I can see a relationship between the 2 subjects except the word grooming.

Well, let me explain, go to the Dutch Google Google[^] and search on 'grooming'.

xkcd: Eclipse Review[^]
My review is situated precisely at the origin of Randall's graph, even though we were supposed to see 90% totality from our location (Dayton, Ohio, USA).
In true Murphy style, I managed to be scheduled into meetings during most of the eclipse. It wasn't terribly disappointing, however, since the local sky was completely overcast during the entire non-event.
Software Zen: delete this;

I think there is a big/huge difference between even 90% coverage and 100% coverage.
I'd rather be phishing!

I can verify that. We were on the road and drove through the totality and even with the overcast sky and surrounding rain showers, it still was the coolest, eeriest thing I have ever experienced. We saw gradient blue sky to east and sunset to the north all while the area around us was almost as dark as night. It was awesome.

I am lucky enough to be living in the path of totality. From my front yard I was able to see about 1.5 minutes of totality, and it was really one of the coolest experiences I have ever had.
