Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I like it better than the blah blue one they had in between, but not as much as the classic capital G.

I'm with amy - totally. I hated the last one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It takes too long for my brain to register it as Google.

Yeah, I think this is it. I register the colors as Microsoft, or something. Whose favicon is blue. I dunno. I think I don't see the "g" immediately.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It reminds me of the Microsoft/Windows logo, too.

Glamcookie, if you still have keyboard issues and end up switching I've got this keyboard from Logitech which uses bluetooth on my office iMac and it's great.

I use a Kensingtion bluetooth mouse with it.

I'm moving to Oakland, CA next month and am looking at Cable (Comcast) versus going with Direct TV. I have no idea of the pros/cons with switching to DirectTV.

Anyone here have wonder/horror stories of either?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Comcast is Satan in disguise, but that's pretty much my experience with all cable companies.

Yeah, that's what I am afraid of. I'm leaving the last independent hold out in the Bay Area (San Bruno Cable) - little cable company so wonderful that the one time I accidentally missed a payment, I got a hand-written note on the next bill asking me if "everything was okay?". I am really going to miss them.
