Do want

God bless 'em they're a stagnant mega-corporation, but Microsoft does come out with the pretties videos.

A song/video by folk/techno/rock singer-songwriter Jonathan Coulton. Bringing a smile to this cold and snowy day.



That is all.

Ridiculous.

Nothing more to say than that.



That is all.

I wonder if Billy Mays leaves his keyboard on caps lock...

A Somewhat More Convenient Truth

With all due respect to Academy Award, Grammy, Nobel Prize Winner and Former Vice President Al Gore, global warming has its perks.

In my time at UMiami, I did come home in the winter for Christmas Break, so I never forgot that it got cold each year (although the past couple of years I hadn't seen snow when I was home). I did forget how looong the cold/snow season lasted. And while the optimistic side of me wonders if the groundhog did indeed see his shadow, my more realistic side understands that it's got to get cold again soon.

That said, I am indeed looking forward to the spring thaw. That is one thing I didn't really see down in Miami.

That is all.

The New Hotness

So I went out and picked up a new iMac. The saleswoman was extremely helpful, and when I got the machine home, the Time Machine transfer worked 99% perfectly. In fact, the only issue was that I had to use Adobe's phone re-activation system (rather than just doing it online) in order to turn off the reactivation splash window. Otherwise, though things are running smoothly. Here's hoping all logic board issues limit themselves to the next three years.

Look at it there. Being all aluminum and sleek and what not.













Dramatic shot! The depth perception, my God, the depth perception!













The new keyboard. Still getting used to it, although it's more the rearrangement of the volume/dashboard/brightness keys than it is the new flattened keys.









Lastly is my new G-Drive. I actually bought that a few weeks back for Time Machine backups. Almost prophetic, really. But now it matches the look perfectly. Go aesthetics!








So that's my new iMac. Now to get to work to pay for this thing. :D

That is all.
