Here comes another petition that folks might think about signing. Naama Erez has written a petition that she wants to send to Freedom Scientific. Her point is a good one. Why doesn’t Freedom Scientific have a lease to own program like their competitors do for buying JAWS? JAWS is a beast to buy, and even …

Holly Update
Wooohooo, I have some good news. Holly got her ABI activated! It sounds like it will be a long and difficult process, but it has begun, and it’s working. Also, she got one of those Deafblind Communicator thingies I was talking about, and she’s loving it to death. Holy crap, I’m so happy it all …
GDB Online Auction
I just got news of this, so figured I’d put it up. GDB is holding its first online auction to raise funds. There are lots of cool weekend getaways, gift baskets, and other stuff up for grabs. If you want to have a look at what they’ve got, pop on over to their catalogue. Bidding …
Online Parolympic Coverage
I just got a link to hopefully better parolympic coverage than we’re going to see on actual TV. Apparently, parolympic action will be broadcast online at http://paralympicsport.tv. The site works, but woe is me, there is no commentary! I think I am watching sledge hockey right now, but I will never know the score. So…to …
Wayfinder Access Petition
Last night, while I was jibbering away in that 73-minute trainwreck, I mentioned a petition that has been created by TalkNav Inc. on the subject of Wayfinder Access suddenly being terminated. I figured I would give it its own proper plug. Wayfinder Access really was the cheapest GPS solution, and the only solution for Symbian …
Hockey, Wrestling And Food
This probably won’t be much of a post, but here goes. I didn’t get a chance to comment on the big Leafs trades that went down over the weekend, so I’ll do that now. We gave up quite a bit to get what we got and I’m not totally sold on losing Hagman and White …
>A Little More Sleep Chatter
>The Sleep-Talkin’ man has more audio. Here’s donkey jockey. And somehow, I missed putting up his thoughts on being a pirate. You can’t be a pirate if you don’t have a beard. My boat, my rules. I’ve commented saying that I can’t click the embedded links, nor even see them, so please make mention of …
DVD Confession-Extractor
I just bought a copy of DVD Audio Extractor, a program that lets you take the audio out of a DVD and put it in mp3. It’s a pretty cool, easy to use program. The only thing that’s annoying about it is it’s so demanding on the processor that any audio that comes out of …
Sleep-Talkin’ Audio
Speaking of active minds, Sleep-Talkin’ Adam now has audio. But they’re embedded in such a way that JAWS can’t see them…so I’m just going to pull them out of the source code and link ’em. Don’t keep me from what I want! I know they didn’t know, but still. I’m stubborn as a bull! So …
Sleep Talkin’ Man
I know I have said quite a few strange things in my sleep, as documented by this here comment thread, but I think Adam the Sleep Talkin’ Man has me totally beat. I hope Steve doesn’t get any crazy ideas about recording my snippets, although I don’t think I’ve had nearly as many good ones …
