So I just went to check my credit card bill online- and they've "upgraded" their website. It says "sorry, your browser [Safari 3] did not pass the security check" and goes on about how they use the highest possibly security etc.
So you must use one of the approved browsers:
IE 4 (yes, four)
Netscape 4
AOL 5
I didn't even knew people still used netscape OR AOL.
Somehow I don't think IE 4 has 'stronger' security than Safari.
But maybe I'm totally wrong.

passport infoquick random FYI post since people were talking about it a while ago-
I mailed in my passport renewal app on 6/13. Not expedited or anything, just regular.
Got my new passport in the mail 6/21.
seems like they're moving fast these days.
i ordered a passport card too while I was at it- that hasn't come yet, they're saying July maybe.

Did they mispell your name? They did on mine. They spelled my first name Nial. Are you listed on your passport as Xela Rottweiler?

Might actually be time to get that done instead of monkeying around with nexus cards and the new city hall birth certificate.

Jesus - that is a sea change compared to 3 years ago, when I got mine. I paid $185 for an expedited passport and had to wait 3 weeks!

Well, it looks like it's official...
And my first case in official chief capacity last night- a guy that slit his own throat, and cut about 90% of the way THROUGH his trachea. like just a little sliver holding it together in the back. Twice. His roommate just found him, totally alert and awake, bleeding in the shower. (at the psych center, not surprisingly.)
shite!
He's ok though. But it's too early to know if he fucked up his vocal cords or anything.

gas insanitySo, I generally use Mobil for gas. For two main reasons- there's a mobil station like a block from my house, and b/c I like the little speedpass thing. If other gas stations used speedpass, I would totally go there.
Also, I was just "reminded" that I should only put premium (91 or 93) in my car. And NOT to use 'off-brand' gas. Stick with major names. Most places have 93, but sunoco has 91. But it's only like 2 cents cheaper, so it only saves me like 25cents/tank to get 91, and I have to drive all over to find a sunoco station.
But then Dan was like "dude, why do you use mobil? it's always more expensive than everywhere else." I didn't believe it. Well, I guess he was right...
I went to Ambrosia for breakfast this morning.
On the way, passed two gas stations, a mobil and a sunoco, within THREE BLOCKS of each other. I can't believe how different the prices are!!
and this is the Mobil by my house- so I guess it's not just that one particular location-
and then when I got home, saw that the rosebushes are blooming. They smell AMAZING.
i'm sorry I missed the party last night... I had a graduation party for work to go to. :(
But tonight I'm going to TO to see The National/Modest Mouse/REM- woohooooo!
Not looking forward to getting home at 2 or 3am though and having to work (a 27 hour day) at 6a. :(

It costs me about $12 to fill my 14 gallon tank, with tip! I've budgeted in $200 for gas while I'm home, I hope it's enough.

I don't use Safari very often but I think what might happen on those other browsers is that something like say active x or some other feature will pop up and then you can decide if you want to use it and maybe safari doesn't have that option I'm not really sure or maybe it is just how your settings are, maybe it remembers all your passwords and it can detect that. Maybe if I was at your house and logged on then I could log in automaticly to any site you go to. Again I don't really know just taking a guess that you might want to look into your settings or maybe try using firefox and see what happens.
