Rant

^* Please note: The Idaho Humane Society's employee lacked civility and so I see no reason to be civil back to them in this recounting of the tale.

My mother in law recently passed away after a sudden illness and one of the many loose ends that my wife Sarah had to take care of was what to do with the pets (two dogs and a cat). Princess, an eight year old, white, short haired, Free Take One, Wal-mart cardboard box special, ended up coming home with us. Problem is, she has something wrong with her and likes to lash out and attack at random times. Also, she is a little bit incontinent, and was peeing everywhere but the litter box (the counter, in a plant, on some towels) and may have had some sort of eye infection.

So is it just me, or does it really annoy anybody else that each and every app seems to want to have its own dictionary? How come this isn't centralized into one universally accepted format? Just today alone on my Kubuntu box, I have had to add my last name, Hildreth, to the Firefox browser, Open Office Word processor, and Dreamweaver (through Wine).
