I was elated to read a MacUser post today about Anxiety, a new OS X to-do manager app with a really attractive price of $nada. I was less elated to discover that it requires Leopard. Just my luck. I guess I’ll have to set that aside until I get my new iMac, although when exactly that might be is anyone’s guess.
I’m usually quite critical of our society’s lawsuit mania, but I’m going to put that to the side for the moment…partially, at least. Yesterday’s mail brought notice of a class-action settlement regarding foreign transaction fees on credit cards. While anyone who had a Visa or MasterCard from one of several banks is eligible for a refund, regardless of whether they had any foreign transactions, I can actually morally justify claiming a refund, as I’ve charged a handful of foreign transactions. The end result is that, most likely, I’ll get $25 for fees that I never really had a problem with and that didn’t come close to the amount of my refund. This I won’t complain about!
