Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Juliebird, did you fix your itunes problems?

le nubian, no, I haven't had a chance yet. Went out of town for a few days. I got as far as backing up the associated files, but when I went to uninstall, I discovered a new twist: apparently I am not the administrater of this laptop, even though I totally am, and there are no other profiles on this computer, and profile settings says I totally am, and also I installed iTunes, so why the heck can't I uninstall it? F*cking Geeksquad... shouldn't have let them "set up" my new and already broken toy... *grumblegrumble*

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

LEMMINGS!

Good times, man, good times.

Slow, but good.

Coding and Sleeping

My first computer had 16k of memory, a cassette drive, and membrane keyboard. I was in middle school at the time so I mostly used it for playing and writing games.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My first computer had 1.5k.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Heh. Buffista conversation number 111.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Would that be 7 or 1101111?

Could be 73 or allowing everyone to execute although that really isn't a conversation.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

o god, I remember "drawing" pictures over lunch break in elementary school on the TRaSh-80. 10 clr 20 let x=blah and y=blah

I don't remember all that anymore. Tho, to this day, I still don't hold down SHIFT when hitting delete, for fear of deleting the whole line. I know, craxy, but that fear won't leave the brain.

I'm installing a 5.1 surround system in my living room, and in researching speaker wire I came across this very useful article about what kind of wire to buy, so I thought I'd share: [link]
