It’s too late to enunciate

Exhibit A: Timbaland – Apologize (feat. One Republic)
If you want, skip to the chorus around 1:07.
From answers.com:
apologize
(ə-pŏl’ə-jīz’) – To make excuse for or regretful acknowledgment of a fault or offense.
The word is apologize. Not “pologize”. Agh.
New Geek Tools: Assembla, RescueTime, Xobni
Assembla packages SVN hosting, Trac, Wikis, Real Time Chat, Ticketing, and emails on repository commits. “It’s too hard to set up” is usually an excuse to not use SCM tools… but Assembla gets you going quickly. We now use it on BibleShark. Ask me if you want to take a look at our setup on Assembla.

RescueTime tracks what application has your focus and for how long. I can’t wait to see this product grow, they got their initial funding by YCombinator.

Xobni adds message sender/context, a better search, and email analytics your Outlook.
Here’s a screenshot of the pane it adds to your inbox:

Productive, but not a cheap half day
Got to take a half day at work today. WOO!
My rest included:
- Registered my car (~$135)
- Registered to vote ($free)
- Renewed my driver’s license ($20)
- Paid the electric bill ($97)
- Got Groceries ($30)
- Sent in my measurements for Clayton’s wedding ($30)
$312 total. ARG, but at least I’m not nervous about getting pulled over.
