Pocket Smith

I've fallen in love with a new with a new web-based application. It's name is Pocket Smith. Think Microsoft Money Canadian edition, without all the bells and whistles. Start budgeting today, and get bill payment reminders in your Google Calendar or other iCal compatible application.

Pocket Smith

Check out this great little site. Budgets, forecasts all that good stuff, it's like a slim version of MSN Money. It doesn't interface with your bank account directly, but you can download and upload transactions.

setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition windows 7

God damn error message I tell you, I couldn't figure it out. Well in the end it's because grub is at the start of the drive on my EEE laptop. How did I get rid of it? I used Gparted. I had to use an ISO file and burn it to a CD, I'm sure there's a way to get it onto a USB thumbstick, I'm just not in the know about how to do it.

That's because you've got a linux bootloader such as grub. Get rid of it with Gparted. You might even be able to get away with killing everything using a windows boot disk.

My journey

You know, I started writing out my sob story, but really I think I'm over it all. I had a less than ideal childhood and all I can do is make sure that life is better for my kids!



So how did I get to where I am at this stage in life? Laziness for the most part. Find the best way to be lazy and still get what you need to get done. Help other people out as a matter of fact and you'll get what YOU want.
