* **Condo Commandos:** They've been quiet since I called about unathorized
 occupants [1] and the Head Condo Commando called back [2] so it looks like
 the recent maelstrom has blown over for now. I think it also helped that I
 cleaned up the back porch.
* **the Mercedes:** It's been towed! [3] Or at least moved somewhere else.
* **the Impending Move:** We still waiting to see if we've been approved for
 the townhome. [4] They are waiting for confirmation that Rob [5] and I are
 employed. Rob has it easy—he's employed! The rental office is just waiting
 for his company to fax back the information that Rob actually works there.
 I don't have it so easy; being self-employed it's a bit harder to say “Yes,
 I'm employed.” They want proof which means tax returns and various W-2 and
 1099 forms and what not. On the plus side, if Rob is deened to make enough
 then it's not so important that I actually prove I make a minimum amount of
 income per year.
* **Network Solutions:** I have yet to print out the form [6] and fax it back
 to them with photo ID. Seeing how I'm going to have to rent a fax as it
 where to do this, and money is a bit tight with the current housing
 situation this might take a few more days to get resolved.
* **Web server/browser bugs:** It turns out both Mark [7] and I need to read
 the HTTP specification [8] a bit closer. When a browser sends the Host:
 header, it also sends the port number if the port isn't the standard HTTP
 port, which Mark didn't realize. So when he was sending the redirect, he
 was adding on the port number, [9] which was already included in the host
 portion. Bug fixed.
