Home Owner that is. w3rd. Yeah it’s all done. It was easy. I’m not exactly sure why everyone thinks it’s so hard. Anyway, as I walked into my new house they blasted at the construction site across from me so I couldn’t tell if it was a good sign that the place shook when I [...]

Now they’ve decided to upgrade my beloved iPod. That’s right kids, it’s now in color and 60gig sized. Fuck, Fuck, Fuck! [...]

Can you hear what I hear?

October 25th, 2004 · No Comments

So JT#2 and I headed out Saturday looking at furniture for our new places. Well we tried to find furniture, truth be told there aren’t many places in Northern Virginia that have my type of style. I guess I’m looking for some Modern designs, stuff with sharp lines and things that generally look uncomfurtable but [...]

October 24th, 2004 · No Comments

So I had my walk through of my new house on Friday. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical about the house after almost 2 years of waiting, but DAMN was I impressed. The appliances look great and my carpet feels wonderful. We used blue tape to mark the places that need to [...]

Back from Atlantic City..

October 19th, 2004 · No Comments

Not much poorer.. but a bit poorer. It was a good time and I think everyone that went had a good time. I don’t really care. I’m just glad that I won’t be making this trip for another 2/3 years. Maybe Vegas will be in the future but I’ll probably be just walking around the [...]

But some people maybe Mac haters but they now have an option. Cherry OS promises G4 processor emulation on PC hardware. Aparently faster then PearPC and easier to [...]
