Crazy Week

I’m sure you expect to see a summary of the events making this particular week crazy, but I’m pretty sure that won’t happen. I decided that based around two major decisions far outside of my realm of influence.

Ralph Nader is now running for president, and that could have major implications for the major parties. The other thing is that hd-dvd is now dead.Blu-ray is now the “future-proof” video standard. There you have it- one crazy week.

Let’s see here… I spent this afternoon doing my taxes. A couple more things and I’ll be done tomorrow. If I created and/or itemized deductions I think I could get much more back but I’ve been too scared/uneducated/lazy to do this. I have 3 different W-2 for last year and the final sum is pretty small. Weird. Guess I should be a naked art model more frequently.
We went into the Christian bookstore a couple days ago. Haven’t been there for years. Maybe over a decade. And you know what? It doesn’t feel like it’s changed at all. Which means I didn’t like it one bit.

The weather here has been “nice” which translates into upper 30’s/low 40’s Fahrenheit. There were a bunch of motorcyclists out today- bikes, babes and bundles of clothing to stay warm. Hey, I almost got that to work.

As stated in previous blogs, my hard drive is shot. Well, it could be my OS installation or my motherboard, but it’s most convenient to blame my hard drive. I’ve got a few fixes in the pipeline. Part A of my master plan was completed when I successfully resized my nfts partition. Part B will be to order an 80 GB drive online because nobody has anything that small around here. Part C will utilize a live cd with open source software ( Clonezilla ) to transfer all data to new hard drive. I’ll be going from 300 GB to 80 GB, which would not be possible with most software tools including commercial versions. And here I am paying nothing and still doing better. Amazing.

Here’s a link to a funny picture that’s not safe for work or for anyone not wishing to see other people naked.

Here’s a link to an article related to free software that has 8 points of differentiation. Very interesting. To me at least.

If you want to see the fall and rise of man in 6 forum postings, here it is.

Fuck it, Dude- Let’s go bowling.

    Who’s gonna vote Nader? Maybe people who thought Hillary is a good idea. I guess my brother voted for Nader in 2000. Maybe I should’ve, too.
    Should I know what that last quote is from, or do you really want to go bowling?

    Ya, I just told this guy Hillary’s going to garnish his wages for health care. Now he has to vote Nadar.
    But really, the question is… what’s up with this bowling thing? And the second question about the bowling sentence. Don’t we usually do that to people, not “it”? That’s SICK! And not in a good way.

    in reference to the weirdest photo i’ve seen in a long time: Seriously, who knew that kindof concavage was possible, and even more seriously, I think I could have lived without knowing. The dude in the middle kind of weirds me out, too. a little tmi…
