One day it will start smoking, and maybe then IT will care.

Computers deserve smoke breaks, too!

I think there's a difference in hockey fights between the ones where the blood is up from the heat of the game and the ones that are started by morons trying to prove that they have balls. I don't really mind the first, but I hate the second. I'm not a big hockey fan, but I've seen more than I'd like to admit, and I think the goons ruin the game. Clean hits and occassional fights, but I hate the guys who run around looking for a fight at the ened of a game, or two enforcers who make plans to throw down on ice.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I hate tourists at the deli! And I don't mean tourists to New York, I mean the people who need to browse everything in there before figuring out what the fuck they're doing. Suits are just as bad.

I'm about to get in a 1:15 car for a 2:30 meeting. Granted, the weather is terrible, but I still don't think it's going to take us over an hour to get to midtown. Quality time with the big boss....

It's a much worse habit in computers. Once they start smoking they start to smell bad, then they stop listening to you, and eventually they start refusing to do work all together. Some of them may even start committing arson.

In San Francisco it's considered a serious breach of etiquette to come to the front of a line at a taqueria and not know what burrito you want to order.

I leave slow pondering for sit-down restaurants with menus and wine lists.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The algorithm constantly finds Jesus.

Anyone else seen this billboard? Ask.com ad?

I always tend to try to stand way the hell back when at a place with menu boards. Because if it is new to me, I'm gonna get overwhelmed and take forever. I'm not sure why this is, but it's consistent.

One of my dad's early macs not only smoked, it shot flames.

Everyone in LA might want to be wary of the convention center for the next week. My brother will be there, getting into trouble.

I think I know one thing I will definately be doing today, giving Ozymandias a bath. Boy smells like a zoo animal.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Heather, there is a SF Golden Gate Rugby Club game on Treasure Island at 3 p.m. the Saturday you're here. But, there's also the Vivienne Westwood exhibit, and brunch, and.....

Too damn much cool stuff to do!
