today is sunday 17 september 2006.

new on the linux experience world . . . updating firefox. seems innocuous enough--moving from 1.5.0.6 to 1.5.0.7 shouldn't be a big deal. and it wasn't--until you figure out that your extensions aren't working right in the update. and trying to get back to 1.5.0.6 wasn't as easy as it should have been.

to baseball . . . the padres/dodgers have had a jekyll and hyde-like series. fri, maddux of the dodgers has a no-hitter to the sixth, leaves in the seventh with a one-hitter tossing 68 pitches. the dodgers beat the padres for the first time at home this season. sat--three dodgers pitchers allow 11 runs after two innings (yeah it was ugly). today the padres win with a soft shot to right in the top of the ninth. one more time tomorrow--and we'll see if the padres can hold on to first place . . . they only have to beat the dodgers in one more game (they've already done in what--all but 3 or 4 times in 17 meetings this season?).

it's gotten cold quick here in colorado . . . hit the thirties this morning. so exciting this takes a line in my blog.
