Pretty Cool Joe!

I recently discovered this webpage. I like the National Image cause I've got family on each coast. In the upper left hand corner of the map, click on the "full resolution" image to see a huge map!

My wife installed a program called WeatherBug on our computer. After you program it for your local area, it has a little ladybug icon that sits in the bar and shows temperature. If you have a weather alert, it chirps like a cricket. To access different screens, you click on the temperature/ladybug icon and a menu allows you to select forecast, alerts, other areas for travel weather, etc.

It looks like there's a extra-tropical storm developing right outside of North Carolina/Virginia

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Another bonus to Macs, at least until they grow in populus enough to actually be considered significant in this regard: most spyware and other such negative code is designed to attack Microsoft products. Such a piece of code, when attempted to be foisted upon a Mac, either downloads it harmlessly as mute, or is flagged and halted from downloading.

One way to tell if you are being assaulted by spyware: is your hard drive continuing to make noises after the page finishes loading? If so, you might have some attempted hacking or phishing going on.

There in only one place where the weather matters. Hall Beach. There's nothing like a day at the beach, and there is no beach like Hall Beach. Yes indeed. Hall Beach. That's the place. Hall Beach. Put on your tiniest bikini and head for Hall Beach.

I'm sorry, but I think you're kidding yourself here. There sure do seem to be plenty of spyware tools for Macintoshes.

Notice I said "most," not "all." Of course there is spyware designed to phish Macs. But the great majority of it is directed at Windows instead.
