Bleh -- 2:33 pm CST, Update by The Master

As I'm sure the 3 of you who read us noticed, we no longer have Webdog .plan updates on the site. Richard Smith has shut the service down, since .plans are so 1990's. I'm working to get an archive put together but for now we're just stripping the links. When I've got everything worked out I'll write a fix to patch up the webdog links in our news posts.

On a fun note, I got myself an iPod last week. Much reorganizing of my music collection ensued, and then I realized that I don't have a complete Metallica CD collection anymore. Thus, I've also plonked money down to re-purchase Ride the Lightning (killed in a freak CD jukebox accident years ago) and to get the new albums. My only complaint so far is with iTunes. iTunes was designed to the simplest dumbed down specification imaginable. That's great for those who use iTunes for CD->iPod ripping only, but I'm a bit advanced in this respect. I also prefer to use a different tool to rip my CD collection, so I'm merging my own updates to the music collection. The stupid thing won't recognize any changes without re-adding the music folder to it constantly. Nice.

The Master comments: Update AND Eeyore got me a $15 gift card for the iTunes Store, so I am madly spending that too. Whee!
