The Man With One White Slipper

I just got a bath slipper in the mail. It's a large white bath slipper for my left foot. And it says that they'll send me the matching slipper when I reserve my room at SpringHill Suites.

Now this isn't quite as random as it sounds. I'm a BzzAgent, so I get odd stuff in the mail so I can pimp the swag. And this slipper was attached to a certificate for a free stay, which we'll be using sometime soon to go to EPCOT. (The Lake Buena Vista SpringHill Suites is a "WDW Good Neighbor Hotel" offering a free shuttle to the property.)

But sending 50% of a pair of slippers? That was a new one on me.

They're also offering my readers 25% off, so if you need a hotel in the neighborhood of $63.75-82.50 (after the discount), feel free to take them up on it: http://marriott.com/marriott.mi?page=springhillsuites-trial

(No, I don't get a commission, just the aforementioned swag.)

UPDATE: fixed the prices.

Welcome mattyo3000!

I've got a new LJ friend, mattyo3000, who is also my brother. So if you see him posting comments on my journal, you'll know who belongs to this new head popping up all of a sudden. Don't whack that mole!

Well, that's awfully convenient...

Good thing they didn't ask "Would you like to get a degree that leads to actual employment in your field of study?"...

Well, that was easier than I thought.

Warning to non-geeks: this post will make no sense.

Half an hour ago I was going nuts trying to run MacSSH or NiftyTelnet on Jodi's iBook without Classic support installed.

15 minutes ago I was going nuts trying to get RealVNC to work.

And five minutes ago, on my way out the door to run home and log in from there, I realized "Hey, this is Unix!" God bless Unix. I found Terminal, ran ssh, and I'm in.
