Militantplatypus is going on vacation!
I am off to Maine to see my best friend get married. I will leave this Thursday, and be back to blogging next Tuesday. I will make sure to put a bunch of posts in the pipline, and I also have another blogger that you should check out in my absense.

In West Des Moines, Iowa, Rob Lowe’s golf ball hits state bird in mid-flight
Spectacular: Last year (according to a March 2007 Associated Press report), a computer technician for the Alaska Department of Revenue accidentally erased a disk containing all the data for paying the state’s 600,000 residents their annual oil-revenue dividends, and a duplicate disk was also erased, and the fail-safe backup tape was discovered to be unreadable. It took two months of around-the-clock work for state employees to re-computerize all paper records. [CNN-AP, 3-20-07]

Ok, I’m a tech-nerd and I love all this tech stuff, but… Rob Lowe killed the state bird with a golf ball. That’s just funny or somethin’.
