Is it lunch time?

If you haven’t tried Al’s 50’s Diner yet, you’re missing out on some good food. Al’s is located in the old Winn-Dixie plaza, where What-a-Wiener used to be. They do a great hamburger there, and the fries are second to none. Try breakfast too. Al’s Special is a good deal, and won’t leave you hungry, with 2 eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, hashbrowns or grits, toast and a short stack.

The FBI says, “Turn off your computer”

Turn Off Your Computer: With the growth of high-speed Internet connections, many opt to leave their computers on and ready for action. The downside is that being “always on” renders computers more susceptible. Beyond firewall protection, which is designed to fend off unwanted attacks, turning the computer off effectively severs an attacker’s connection—be it spyware or a botnet that employs your computer’s resources to reach out to other unwitting users.
