Organization...

After a weekend of complete technical stupidity, I had to tackle something technical... maybe just to prove to myself that I wasn't completely technically inept.

See! I'm not COMPLETELY technically inept. I'm pretty sure it works too, because I'm connected to the Internet right now via DSL, which is now running through this new media center.
