I found a great website online (actually, a friend sent me a link to it). With just a little bit of photo editing you can set up your own little family full of dancing elves. I put each of my kids in this festive holiday scene. Click here to watch it.

Some motivated people like to create a list of all the things they want to do before they die. Oftentimes these lists contain things like skydiving, climbing Mt. Everest, or eating 15 cherry pies in one sitting. While I applaud those who can make such a list and get those things done I just don't see that sort of thing working for me. My list would change too often as my life circumstances changed. Or, a lot of the things I want to do are completely out of my control. For example, I want to watch a tree get struck by lightning at some time in my life. How am I going to make that happen?

One problem PDAs and PocketPCs owners seems to run into often has to do with a scratched up screen. Most of those devices use a touchscreen to allow the user more input options. Unfortunately this inevitably leads to scratches. The areas that get used the most (the start menu and the application close icon) get the most scratches. One solution to this are these clever little screen protectors.
