Little Mermaid – Kiss the Girl
Not for the first dance, but still one of the things we’re listening to.
Louis Armstrong – What a Wonderful World
Tony Bennett – Fly Me to the Moon
Nat King Cole – I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)
Nat King Cole – Let There Be Love
Nat King Cole – Unforgettable
Been difficult to listen to “new songs” as we’re in the home stretch, listening to songs to pick for our wedding dance and for dance practicing. So, here’s what I’m listening to as far as potential wedding songs.
No, no spoilers will be given on which is selected.
30 Seconds to Mars – The Kill (Bury Me)
2005
We the Kings – Check Yes Juliet
Reboot PC via MSTSC
These next two tricks are documented and will continue to work in future versions of Windows:
If you’re a command line person, you can run
shutdown.exe, but that program supports only shutdown and restart; it doesn’t do stand-by or hibernate. But theshutdown.exeprogram has a serious flaw: It requires you to have administrator privileges. If you are a limited user with shutdown privileges, theshutdown.exeprogram will complain. (Which means that I don’t use it.)Finally, if your computer isn’t using Fast User Switching, you can type the Ctrl+Alt+End hotkey, which is the Remote Desktop version of Ctrl+Alt+Del and consequently takes you to a dialog where you can do various system-type things, among them logging off and shutting down.
Alternate Reality Gaming – Redux
I met Jane McGonigal the year she and her ARG associates at 4orty2wo Entertainment ran the Halo 2 marketing ARG [i.e., I Love Bees]. Now, Jane is making the news solo with a new ARG [CNN: Urgent Evoke] intended to encourage people to take an active role in improving the real world by taking part in some community outreach program with a focus on problems in Africa.
Cheers Jane for a wonderful experience as a beekeeper (the ARG was way better than the game it advertised, Halo 2), glad to see you’re doing well.
Corporal Mazian, Beekeeper
(names & ranks were self chosen, a lot of people chose high ranking positions. But let’s be honest, not everyone gets to be a general or admiral.)
