• Back to work after a four-day weekend. I guess I’ve got to figure out how to keep myself busy today, since the search server seems to have run smoothly all weekend (for the first time ever AFAIK&nbsp).
• I know I keep on talking about it, but my living room is so much more homey with something to sit on. I’ll post a picture later today. I think I even have pictures of the room when it was empty, so I’ll be able to do a before-and-after.

• I called for DSL today. They’re backordered, so I have to wait until the 12th for them to hook it up, but then I’ll have my own full-time ‘net connection. Hmmmm- what flavor of server to run? Mac? NT? Linux? (How well does Frontier run under Linux right now?)
• Woohoo!! I the sofa-sleeper and love-seat showed up today! They even carried them up to the third floor for me!!!
• I spent a large part of the day sorting out old hard-drives. The dilemma at this moment is what to do with 70MB of old email which I’ll probably never look at again, but which I don’t have the heart to throw away. Speaking of which, I found this:

May 24, 1996
My fear is that if I don’t get on that plane, I’ll have missed out on one of the most important possibilities of my life- and that if I do, I’ll just get rejected and feel worse than before. How to deal with this… How to reconcile this kind of inner conflict? Is is possible?

• JAHOO! made the top 100 ETP sites today. I’m not quite sure why- there’s not much there except a ripped-off look and feel, and my bookmarks list…
• My couch arrives tomorrow!!! YAY! I’ll finally have something to sit on in my living room!
• I’m watching Spielberg’s first film on TNT right now: Duel, a great low-budget film from 1971.
• I can see that my dad hasn’t taken up the challenge of DadMight.EditThisPage.com. Maybe he should be spammed?

• Jake’s Brainpan made number 87 on the EditThisPage.com site rankings page, and I only started it on Wednesday! I guess the Y2KSF pictures were a hit!
• I made banners for the sites I’m managing at ETP.com:
