Imagine my surprise when today I opened my statement for my business savings account XXXXXXX (an activity I do only a few times a year as there should be no activity in the account whatsoever) only to find that the balance is negative $19.83. Yup, that’s right — $19.83 less than $0.
Another small weekend project, my new World of Warcraft video (”Hit the Road, Jack”) took about a day from start to finish to create (with lots of everyday activity and parenting in between). I think these are kinda fun to create, and they also serve as an interesting enhancement to the creative side of my [...]
Just to satisfy my curiosity, I created a list of and traced all the anonymous IP addresses that have edited the Stephanie Adams page on Wikipedia in the previous 12 months. They are presented in chronological order, with the most recent addition at the bottom.
