So, I'm kinda drunk.

Have you ever seen Ghost World? I just spent the this evening watching while drowning myself in one wonderful bottle of Malbec and a couple Sessions(DID YOU DORKS SEE THE .CFM.... I DID! WOOT). So back to this movie. It was good, not too long, not too short, not boring, not too much to handle. In the end I kind of hate it. When I see Enid do her thing with Seymore I can't help but to think how pathetic I was (or still am?) when I had my first real bond with a woman, painful stuff, which I think everyone has to go through... Who knows if the writer knew how powerful their novel, screenplay, or whatever they called their work can be. The feeling that I took away from this movie is how close it really is to being that age or being that nerdy.

So. Women. Understand that we're all Seymore at heart. OR we're really fucking dumb so we better be rich or make Ron Jeremy want to retire.

More exciting goodness can be found at TrinityWorks! These crazy Japanese fuckers decided to code a kernel level driver to run a Mac Pro Keyboard in T3h w1nd03z. Best part is the EJECT key works now.  I'm a fan and for $24.ish price that I can afford, good work consumer friendly developer!

It's been a long week of playing with Vista (somehow killing my Windows Installer on a separate partition, WTF!) giving Windows XP-N a try and feeling it is a letdown like everyone else says. The good news is I decided to get less-lazy and figure out how to re-order my retail version of XP PRO... Which ended up costing $31.50. Good news is that it will be a new install disc (SP2, woot) with a new key (find my old disc and I have two copies MWUWUWUAAAHAHA).

Err... Other than that nothing else is that exciting. Guess I am going to go see Dick the 3rd tomorrow. Which should prove to be a good time as the last show I saw was LES MIS and I really enjoyed it. Live theatre is fun!

Pancakes are wonderful.

Movie: So, some assholes killed a few athletes. Now we're going to kill the people who devised this plan and more radical people can suicidee bomb us. Err, good idea. Some guy made a movie about this. Just what we needed was proof that trying to do something like this does not help. You end up making them hate you more, it's easier to recruit people, etc.
Music: G.
Misc: OS ES ECKS EIGHTY SIX

Warning....

I stumbled across this new post at BBSpot. Much funny, yes?

It's pretty outside, kinda makes my eyes hurt.

So many new toys, so little time.

So this last couple weeks have been pretty fun. Starting with AllofMP3, then Last.fm and now the Vista Beta (which I am in right now). Super fun!

I'm pondering the idea of writing up a short review of each of them just to give myself an idea if it is something I can do in the first place. The only thing on my mind right now is how much it is going to cost me to upgrade each of my boxes to Vista. I'm really hoping our boys in Redmond understand we're not made of money. Our friends down in Cupertino decided to start selling a "Family Pack" which includes 5 licenses for only $199.99, now that's a bargain! Of course, it's basically a yearly fee + your .Mac and whatever else they like to tack on, iPod, iLife, iWork, iEye, iAre, iYou, iMe...

Link and I were discussing this... I told him that they should sell me 3-5 copies for less than $300.00, call it a personal license pack or something. You know, can't be a business, can't buy more than this or some crap, can't resell it.... blah blah blah. I'm down with making a few bucks from the big business. How about making it easier for your consumers to move into this. He contended that this must have been at least talked about at Microsoft as, if we're thinking about it, some other guy(or girl...) must have already.

This is smooth, it feels like Windows. Though, if anything I'd like a damn shell, something with a command line. So I can say something to my friends using bash on a regular basis.

Oh well, I'm a point and clicker. :(
