I've been trying, when appropriate, to get people to move away from Internet Explorer (just doing my part for homeland security.) So I guess I should stick with the follow through. To wit: there is a bug in Mozilla (and thus in Firefox) when run on Windows 2000 or Windows XP that can allow for remote execution of code. This bug has already been patched, so all you need to do is update your software to the latest version. For Firefox that would be 0.92. Here's the mozilla page with complete details on the vulnerability and what you need to do.
Waltzing Matilda
Bruno’s contention that “waltzing matilda” refers to hanging by the neck sounds plausible, but the references I’m finding confirm the (perhaps bowdlerized) meaning that I’ve always heard, in which waltzing matilda means carrying a swag bag, like a hobo with his belongings tied in bundle hanging on a stick. Perhaps there was a double reading intended.

any thoughts on billmon going commentless?
i dont spend that much time in comment threads but i still find them useful. wasnt one of the innovation of blogging the possibility for an open forum? i understand they can be unruly but should that be the determining factor?
im grateful for billmons prodigious output but he sure can be thinskinnned at times.

Hey Bill, Selma or anyone, I'm working on a storyboard and looking for loads of interior (esp. interior) and exterior shots of a house, a sort of vertual tour. The house I'm after is a big family home, Modern design but not a masterpiece. Ideally but not necessarily the pics would capture the personality of the residents- their furniture, possessions, dishes cluttering the kitchen counter etc.
So far I'm having trouble finding what I'm looking for (kind of a tall order I guess) Seen anything like this? Any ideas?
TIA

Kim Jong Il's eating habits:
The North Korean leader might be one of the world's most enigmatic figures, but thanks to a growing and eclectic body of books and articles that detail Kim's epicurean habits, more is known about what he eats than nearly any other head of state.
