Stockings were always fun and special when I was growing up, so I went all out to make Ponzi&#8217;s special this year, as well.</p><p>Here is a list of what I put into her stockings. Yes&#8230; there are two! She has two feet, so she may as well have two stockings.</p><ul><li>KitKat bar</li><li>Light Blaster (bends and refracts light. Cool to look at xmas lights through)</li><li>Hazlenut chocolates</li><li>Service bell (like at counters in stores) to get ahold of me easier</li><li>Audio power pack for iPhone&#8230; one for her purse, and one for her car</li><li>Pound of Major Dickinson&#8217;s Blend coffee from Peet&#8217;s, which is her favorite</li><li>Neon glow 22&#8243; necklace</li><li>Play money&#8230; to help start her on her coin collection. What?! Play money doesn&#8217;t count? Oh well, it&#8217;s still fun.</li><li>Harmonica</li><li>Life Savers Storybook</li><li>Kazoo</li><li>A cow keychain that moo&#8217;s and has an LED light. This is to symbolize the fact that she wanted to donate to a charity that buys a cow for a needy family, who can then use it for milk&#8230; and eventually meat.</li><li>Oreo cookies</li><li>Paw rubber stamp</li><li>Earplugs, so that she won&#8217;t have to hear the Ventrilo stream when she doesn&#8217;t want to</li><li>Chocolate coins. Unfortunately, they don&#8217;t make plain ones anymore, so these are SpongeBob Squarepants ones</li><li>Stretch Deck, to help her with stretching more, which is something she plans to do</li><li>Sour Patch candy</li></ul><p>What do you put in your stockings for loved ones, family or children? Do you have special traditional gifts? Leave me a follow-up comment, or email me at <a

Stockings were always fun and special when I was growing up, so I went all out to make Ponzi&#8217;s special this year, as well.</p><p>Here is a list of what I put into her stockings. Yes&#8230; there are two! She has two feet, so she may as well have two stockings.</p><ul><li>KitKat bar</li><li>Light Blaster (bends and refracts light. Cool to look at xmas lights through)</li><li>Hazlenut chocolates</li><li>Service bell (like at counters in stores) to get ahold of me easier</li><li>Audio power pack for iPhone&#8230; one for her purse, and one for her car</li><li>Pound of Major Dickinson&#8217;s Blend coffee from Peet&#8217;s, which is her favorite</li><li>Neon glow 22&#8243; necklace</li><li>Play money&#8230; to help start her on her coin collection. What?! Play money doesn&#8217;t count? Oh well, it&#8217;s still fun.</li><li>Harmonica</li><li>Life Savers Storybook</li><li>Kazoo</li><li>A cow keychain that moo&#8217;s and has an LED light. This is to symbolize the fact that she wanted to donate to a charity that buys a cow for a needy family, who can then use it for milk&#8230; and eventually meat.</li><li>Oreo cookies</li><li>Paw rubber stamp</li><li>Earplugs, so that she won&#8217;t have to hear the Ventrilo stream when she doesn&#8217;t want to</li><li>Chocolate coins. Unfortunately, they don&#8217;t make plain ones anymore, so these are SpongeBob Squarepants ones</li><li>Stretch Deck, to help her with stretching more, which is something she plans to do</li><li>Sour Patch candy</li></ul><p>What do you put in your stockings for loved ones, family or children?

There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/17081/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;VMware&lt;/a&gt; and/or &lt;a href=&quot;http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/13766/rn_a32755/&quot;&gt;Parallels&lt;/a&gt;. </description> <author>chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo)</author> <category>Partner</category> <pubDate>Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT</pubDate><link>http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/</link> <guid>http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/</guid> </item><item><title>Coupons for Online Shopping</title> <description>&lt;p style=&quot;color: red&quot;&gt;This feed is fueled by Lockergnome &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lockergnome.com/buy/&quot;&gt;Online Shopping and Coupon Codes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
