I’m taking on the (slow and sometimes painful) process of migrating some of our in-house admin and sales employees to some open source software: Linux OS, OpenOffice instead of MS Office, etc… and found ran across a great article about envelope printing in open office.
If you are looking for a quick and simple envelope template for OpenOffice, be sure to give this a read. I absolutely despise paying for software that has a free alternative - articles such as this make it easy to switch.

Yes, I have to admit that I’m a Harry Potter fan. Just ran across the movie trailer for the 6th movie in an email that I received this morning. I’m looking forward to the release of the show in late November.
I was silly enough to see the premiere of Order of the Phoenix by standing in line at midnite and purchased a ticket when that movie opened… but I think I’ll wait till the next day on this one. Here is a link to the trailer - once I figure out how to embed the video I’ll update the post.
Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince

“The Box Office” - Joke sent to me via email this morning - kind of got a kick out of this.

While the C-5 was turning over its engines, a female crewman gave the G.I.s on board the usual information regarding seat belts, emergency exits, etc .
Finally, she said, ‘Now sit back and enjoy your trip while your captain, Judith Campbell, and crew take you safely to Afghanistan ‘
An old MSgt. sitting in the eighth row thought to himself,
‘Did I hear her right? Is the captain a woman?’
When the attendant came by he said ‘Did I understand you right? Is the captain a woman?’
‘Yes,’ said the attendant, ‘In fact, this entire crew is female.’

‘My God,’ he said, ‘I wish I had two double scotch and sodas. I don’t know what to think with only women up there in the cockpit.’ ‘That’s another thing, Sergeant,’ said the crew member,
‘We No Longer Call It The Cockpit’
‘It’s The Box Office.’
