Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett

Damn and blast! This article got eaten in the Great Database Glitch of '06.

The summary was:

Technology taunts Julie again. The heat wave rolls on as she sings the Tech Support Blues. Virtually. You don't have to listen to her voice

Yes, technology farted in my general direction. Again.

I've got one of those wonderful cars with plastic-encased bumpers. Makes it very easy to hide a key - not.

Have a cheap, flat, thin, no-frills, no plastic handle, duplicate key made and put in your wallet. It will open the doors/trunk. Lacking the key chip to start the car is of no concern for the more common case of locking the real key within the car.

I've got one that actually fits in a credit card slot in the wallet - didn't do me much good the time I locked my purse in the car. See, I just can't win!
