I want a breath-alyzer on my computer.

I want a breath-alyzer on my computer. Something to keep me from clicking "Send" when I'm way over the limit. Sigh. Actually it's technically possible and I imagine there would be a nice niche market. They now have the little electronic pocket size analyzers. It only needs a USB interface and then an SDK in an email program that would ostensibly monitor it. In fact if I wired it through the server, I could have the best of all worlds. I could silently and automatically delay the email based on my blood-alcohol level and have a chance to cancel it. Otherwise it might cause a delay but be completely non-intrusive.

See my note from yesterday and then check out what's "New" on the main page and see if you can figure out the correlation. OK, I'll give you a hint. Webcam '2' (aka shower cam) was resurrected. We'll see how long it lasts this time or if it stays in that location or not. I managed it by pulling the modem out of that computer to resolve the interrupt conflict, since hopefully I won't be needing a modem on that computer in the near future.

Received the following link from my second cousin in Kansas - for your amusement. PsychoExGirlfriend.COM - Yeah, I know about them. What extraordinary timing. I just found out it wasn't AT&T harrassing me the last couple of days, it was psycho girl. But I bet they called a few times as well. Hardly a day goes by that they don't.

I will remember next time, I will remember next time, I will....
