www.thinkgeek.com is a web site that has all kinds of new and different products, from a Laser Virtual Keyboard, to a Faucet Light that makes your water look blue. It’s like a toy store for big kids. Here is an item you can’t do without: A TV-B-Gone Key Chain. You press the button and all the TVs in a 20 to 50 foot area will turn off.

We are all Geeks in one way or another. I am proud to be called a Geek. When I hear that word I think, “Now there is a person with passion about what they do.”
Remember: The best backup plan is to back up your files now. Stop what you are doing and save your e-mail addresses, your e-mails and all your photos and files. Think how you will feel if you lose everything on your computer tonight!
