Another fight with OS X Server
It seems that every few weeks, I have another fight with OS X server. I still run Leopard Server as most of our Xserves are PPC and won't run Snow Leopard, so these issues may have been addressed. I was moving our wiki and our sites from one server to another and that's where the fun started. It appeared that the setting for where the wiki would be located wouldn't stick. There appeared to be an issue with LDAP.

Review: Squeezebox Duet
I've been a big fan of the Squeezebox music systems for a number of years since I installed a music system in our house. I had 2 of the Squeezebox Classic boxes (before the cool redesign). Last year I saw a special on a Squeezebox Duet
, so I splurged and bought it.

Post paid gas stations still exist?
On Saturday, we were doing errands and stopped to get gas. The gas station was busy, so we had to wait. The person in front of us pulled up and started trying to pump gas. He pulled the handle and nothing happened; he thing went over to the automated kiosk and looked quite confused. By this time, I saw a space open up, so I zipped around and got to a pump. I went inside, pre-paid for my gas (I decided against using the kiosk that took cash; many of the kiosks around don't take cash).

Misrepresentation or False advertising?
For our trip to New York, we stayed at the W Hotel in Union Square. We got a "special" rate for the room (I almost need to take out a loan to pay for it!) and the room was not bad. The W is supposed to be a boutique hotel that offers "Whatever/Whenever" service where the concierge can arrange almost anything. Of course, everything comes at a price.
