  • well, look on the bright side... seems like the vast majority of microsoft's gadgets are a.) ugly as sin and b.) hook into *gasp* msn services. i mean, they certainly look like they're trying to ape the dashboard and its functionality. i think t…
  • well, it'll definitely be different than our days in toronto. we loved t.o., but we were poor college students (well, my wife was... i was a poor production artist), so it was a pricey place to live for us, and with no car, ttc could suck the life o…
  • eh... i've gotten tired of waiting. i mean, i don't think there is a single song penned by any of the beatles, individually or collectively/collaboratively, or even private unreleased or rare tracks that havent been pressed and sold on cd collection…
  • well, i guess it's time for me to crack her back open and find that pmu button again. bleh...
  • well, there's a few extra years in therapy right there for that kid in the you tube video. as an adult, i can wrap my head around the nature of it quicker because i have a lot more frames of reference.

  • cool, thanks guys. yeah, we'd really LIKE to just buy a house rather than renting the first year, since we've built up so much equity in our current house here. but we've got a knack for always choosing the worst place to live whenever we arrive in …

  • i work around so many people who use windows and go out of their way to a.) insult me for the computer i use (they call it teasing) and b.) ask me why it's better, like i'm supposed to lead these horses to water AND make them drink. and then at L…
  • okay, here's what i don't get. if you're going to switch, then just switch. why yell it from the mountaintop? what is it about using windows/linux that precludes you from participating here? you can talk about upcoming rumors as well as anyone, and…
