Any recommendations for Digital Voice Recorders? I'm thinking of getting one, so if anyone has used one they do/don't like, please let me know.

Oh internet friends, come to my aid, speedily!

I need an insurance agency that offers gap (short-term) health insurance plans in MA. All I want is something that'll pay for accidents, acts of God, etc. The agency I use for other insurance needs doesn't offer it, the insurance we have now will charge us an arm and a leg for a policy three times as long as we need it for, and I've had no luck with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, American Family. Do you have an agency you know of that might plans of that sort? Please advise post-haste, for I have left all this too late and our current policy expires in a week!

Terrible person that I am, I missed jcello's birthday yesterday.

Happy (day after your) birthday!

Potatoes with a mustard/vinegar/olive oil dressing, as described in How to Cook Everything.

Good with lobster?

Please opine post haste.

If opining in the negative, please advise in re what I could do with red potatoes to be eaten (cold or room temperature) with lobster. I had also thought of boiling them and dressing with butter and (dried) parsley, or of roasting them in the oven with olive oil and paprika, as suggested by my father.

I have a coupon promising 2 pairs of prescription sunglasses for $100. I only need one pair, though, and Mr. R. already has prescription sunglasses. Any chance any of y'all who live around here are in the market for a pair of prescription sunglasses? Please?

I think that word should exist if it doesn't already.

Spring having sprung, I am possessed with a desire to re-tool my LJ life. I was hoping to do this when they changed the "friend" category to "read/view" categories, but that doesn't seem to be happening any time soon. Therefore:

1. I will be adding some people to my friends list, specifically people whose journals I read but who more than likely don't have the slightest idea who I am. This is for ease of reading; if you're trying to figure out who the hell I am, don't feel obligated to friend me back.

2. Almost everything I post is friends-protected. I use filters a lot, too (eg. fanfic/fandom, Chicklit, personal stuff). If you (any of you, not just new people) want to be included in or left out of a specific filter (for whatever reason), please speak up.

3. If I never say anything you're interested in, don't be afraid to take me off your friends list. It won't hurt my feeling, and I may or may not de-friend you as well. If I haven't friended you and you wish I had, speak up about it and tell me what filter(s) you want to be on.

4. This is an open-ended post, so if you show up here ages from now and want to be friended/de-friended/whatever, go ahead and leave a comment.

Windows Question:

I am using Windows XP. Before the hard drive died and had to be replaced, I had my taskbar set up such that it was larger than the normal size, and the small icons that appear on the right end of it next to the clock (showing, for example, the AIM icon and other program icons) were also large (Relatively speaking. Still pretty small, but larger than the default setting.)

I cannot figure out how I did this this, and thus cannot get it reset as I want it. I've fiddled with the display. I've changed all the accessibility settings I can find. Still no luck.

Does anybody have any idea? Even when I set the display settings so that the taskbar is big, the icons retain their tiny dimensions.

First my files get erased, now I can't make XP do something it used to do...

There comes a time in the life of a journaller at which it is appropriate to make a test-post.

This is that time.
