Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I think I may be responsible for the coming animatronic zombie apocalypse.

Clovis says you just shot up the list for this month's "Good Minion!" competition.

Happy Birthday Gud!

Over the last two days, I've spent 8 hours cut and pasting information about Delaware IP litigation into a spread sheet.

Can I punch Tino in the face now?

I also want a netbook. A fact which my husband has steadfastly ignored since before Christmas, basically because he refuses to buy anything that's not made by Apple.

Hello, I am more tipsy than I've been in a long time, due to my neighbor serving mojitos while we watched our kids ride bikes. She said they had only one shot in them. I doubt it.

On the other hand, I kind of love my neighborhood, and it's too bad we have kids or I'd be playing Spock/Uhura with my husband.

I want a netbook. I WANTZ IT. Who wants to buy me one?

Which one are you interested in? I strongly suggest finding models to type on before getting one, if you are planning on writing with it. The 9" models are easier to find a purse that fits 'em, but my hands, though tiny, cramp up easily enough that I went with one that's in a 10" chassis.

I can't buy you one, but you can benefit from my exhaustive research that went into my decision to get a Asus Eee PC 904HA.

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

You have a turbolift ?

You've told him about the concept of running a Hackintosh on a netbook, right? I believe that the MSI Winds were very popular for that.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I would love to benefit from your exhaustive research, either here or in my LJ. I'm definitely leaning toward the 10" and a nice long battery life. (that's what she said.)

Cool. I mean, I had fantasies about this guy: [link] but it's not available in the states yet, and even when it is, it will probably be $$$, which is not what I want out of a netbook.

Right now, I'm getting really good life out of my 6 cell battery on the Asus. The Acer Aspire has a bad rep as far as battery life goes, plus the machine can apparently get borked badly when it runs out of battery.
