Joe Thousandaire

The show Joe Millionaire has me wondering what construction worker only makes $19,000 a year. He must be a loser. Somewhere I read the average salary for a construction worker in California is about $42,000. I also read Joe comes from a wealthy family. But he has all those girls fooled so far.

Steve Case from AOL stepped down the other day. I remember getting a personal email from him when I first signed up for the service. It was barely 3 weeks old and had very few features but it was cool nonetheless. Then it became too commercial so I stopped using it.

I found a great pop-up ad killer called “Proxomitron.” I’ve been using it for over a week and it does an excellent job of eliminating those pesky pop-up ads that annoy all of us. The best part is it’s free. Plus Leo Laporte lists Proxomitron as one of his top applications to load on a new computer.
