Don't you hate it when companies change things and try to convince you the new thing is better than the old? Rogers used to have perfectly serviceable online billing and payment system. Recently they sent me an email trumpeting all the great new features of their online billing system including: the ability to see the last 18 months of your bills, view your current account balance, real time payment processing and simplified navigation. The feature they took away was the ability to schedule payments. That was the feature I liked best and used every month! It was especially useful because Rogers bills in advance, the bill you receive this month isn't due for a month. Sigh. I guess they wanted to get more late payment fees out of their customers because since they improved the system I consistently forget to pay my bill in time.

I really liked Heroes. What is the point of a network pulling a high rated show from their schedule for an extended period of time? Are they hoping that I'll find something else to watch instead of their show? I they hoping to upset the people who watch the show that they fill the time with when the main show comes back and pushes the show they were watching into a new time slot? Sigh.

I updated to Centos 5 at work today. Well actually I started the update and went home before it was finished. Stay tuned to find out how long it is before I get my system back to normal.
