This time of the year is exciting for everybody in someway or another. This past week my RSS reader brought in some great posts but a few of those in particular really made my week !

And I hope they make your weekend as well if you haven’t read them already !

• Lee of Tar Heel Ramblings shares his heartfelt experiences when he was in school in Outside Looking in.
• Although these posts were written months ago, Kathy of The Junk Drawer documents her adventures helping her octogenarian dad with computers and follows up with another post about helping him get online - faster !
• While we are still on the “Dad” theme, I found this entry at Drowsey Monkey who shares with us the lighter side of her late father.
• This is obviously not so touching as those entries above, but it’s good to share that Lifehacker has listed six tools that help you manage your new year’s resolutions. So far I’ve tried Joe’s Goals and Traineo and I am quite satisfied !
• Here are some humorous reasons why Americans should not be allowed to Travel. (Disclaimer: It is entirely upto you to believe these stories)
• If you are a (hardcore) railroad fan like I am, then hop aboard onto Scenic-railroads.com and treat yourself to marvelous Canadian landscape photography !
• Here is an entry that compares Operating Systems to Houses. I use FreeBSD, a Unix variant, so does that mean my Victorian mansion home to a daemon ? I wonder if my Imam would ever consider exorcising a Thinkpad ?

Do leave your comments on respective blogs - because they love em ! Have a beautiful weekend !
