@vegbruiser: MP3Tag has worked well for me. It gives you the ability to edit tags in bulk, and also rename files based on whatever info from the tag you want.

assuming that you keep at least 1 machine turned on, just sharing it among the network seems to do the trick for me. never saw the need for anything else.

I created a simple rule for myself: if it takes more than 3 texts either incoming or outgoing (not combined), then it warrants a phone call

@probablykate: @MsAnthropy:

how about repairing credit? i've got some legacy shit from years of boozing and bad decisions, but I'm in a position where bills are paid now, etc. ideas?

@Red_Flag: Outlook 2007 does that.

VOTE: Outlook 2007 + Outlook on the Desktop

i use CutePDF to 'print' things to a PDF file. Ultra-easy, and handy as all heck

just remember, the pirate ship has booze on it, and jail cells inside of it for unruly fans. good times.
