*Today's Free-loader: OrphansRemover
OrphansRemover is a nifty free program helps clean up your desktop. The
program searches and deletes "orphan" shortcuts that don't go anywhere
anymore in the given folders and subfolders (like your Start menu,
recent documents, etc.) because you moved or deleted the items those
shortcuts went to. (For Windows.)

*You'll Laugh Your Mouse Off: Mad Kane Hires An Ombudsman
For years I've been flooded with emails challenging the accuracy of
MadKane.com. At first I did what most publications do -- I ignored them.
But as time went by, I realized that something had to be done. So in
keeping with recent trends and in the interest of sound journalism, I've
appointed an ombudsman who'd like to be known only as "Bud." Here is
Bud's first report:
The poem entitled Dubya's Poetic Injustice states that during George W.
Bush's Election 2000 campaign, Bush promised to be a "compassionate
conservative" and to have a "humble foreign policy." After this poem was
published, we learned that Bush was "crossing his fingers" whenever he
made those promises, so "they didn't really count." We regret this
error.
