I had an idea for the name of my podcast. How about the Navelcast? Why Navelcast, you might asked.

Who’s robbing Whom?
I was contacted yesterday by the personnel of a collection agency, telling me that because I activated a company American Express Card eight years ago, I am responsible for the balance on that company account. I have no recollection of that card, let alone recollection of using that card. I have not worked for that [...]
Google Earth
Check out Google Earth for a cool free program that lets you look at the earth from space or zoom in surprising detail. My question is, if this is available to the common man, what else is available that we don’t know about.
