Take this quick quiz to find out if your boss is a “corporate psychopath.”

Should you purchase music from on-line retailers like the iTunes Music Store or subscribe to music services like Napster and Yahoo? Of course, Walt Mossberg has this to say:

But for most people, it’s no contest: Right now iTunes and the iPod are the better choice in digital music.

Hey, wait, he didn’t mention his assistant Katie in this one. She must be on vacation.

Tor: An anonymous Internet communication system

Tor is a toolset for a wide range of organizations and people that want to improve their safety and security on the Internet. Using Tor can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, IRC, SSH, and other applications that use the TCP protocol. Tor also provides a platform on which software developers can build new applications with built-in anonymity, safety, and privacy features.

Almost forgot. The UH Men’s basketball schedule was just finalized this week. Looks like the Bows will have their hands full. Michigan State on the first game?! I was never a fan of MSU during their Final Four run, but they pretty much killed my picks.

Merynn and I will be watching the telecasts with Artie and Jim giving the play-by-play.

I just noticed that under the Contributors column, there are more names than just mine. Way!

Welcome Wayne’s World, du575, moda, and bklyngrl!

According to this post, Disneyland was hit hard by the recent rash of virus outbreaks attacking Windows 2000 machines. The FastPass system, ticketing, and the cash registers all went down at the same time.

du575, why don’t you take care of this when you take your family there on vacation? You already take care of the whole Army Pacific, what’s a few more machines?

Journeys (of all places) is carrying a limited selection of Nike shoes. Right now they have a Dunk in grey suede that’s getting some attention. Not bad, but Journeys??

After coming home one night, we look across the way and see our neighbor doing some ironing wearing nothing but a thong. Not the slippers kind of thong, but the full on, cheek-splitting kind. There’s something you don’t see everyday.

Wowee zowie, Hilary Duff’s collection of greatest hits, Most Wanted, is available at the iTunes Music Store.

Wayne I., I like borrow your copy when you pau. 😉

So long UH basketball Midnight Ohana. Due to a new NCAA regulation, teams can now “start practice at 7 p.m. on the first Friday before Oct. 15” Instead of having the first practice at midnight, teams can begin at a more respectable hour-not a bad proposition for the aging UH fan base. The Honolulu Advertiser has the full story.

Never been to a UH Midnight Ohana even during the AC Carter and Alika Smith heydays. Sorry, Riley Wallace, I’m still passing even with the new start time.

The day spa and salon, Suite Bliss, will be renamed Elements and have its grand opening on September 29. Sorry, by invitation only.

Experience the Elements of Personalized Treatments…

Good luck Jamie and Bree!
