Kite Phil Kitten Yahoo

Tuesday, Jun. 06, 2006 - 3:51 a.m.

The wind has been blowing and blowing and BLOWING furiously here in San Francisco over the last several days, and I've been considering flying a kite.

It would take me approximately fifteen minutes to construct a little one out of a Tyvek envelope.

Phil Hendrie is leaving the airwaves mere months after I subscribed to his show online for another six months.

Somebody did the math, though, and sent me a pro-rated refund from there equivalent to what I would have overpaid. The site will be remaining open and the audio archives will be up and running until September 29th.

My refund amounted to a bling bling total of forty-nine cents.

I'll try not to spend it all in one place.

And here's a screen capture from the Yahoo Messenger area:

With that in mind, then I have to ask, what is the following information doing still up in your Macintosh help section?...

I adjusted the contrast so you can see what I'm talking about...

Dear Yahoo: You weren't in any way ready to roll out your new video software, and as a low bandwidth Mac user, I don't appreciate being kicked to the curb with absolutely no warning whatsoever.

My opinion of your service is now officially in the realm of Bowling Shoe Ugly. You have been admonished.

Okay. Have a HELL of a Tuesday, 6/6/06!
