….grrr….
Given that today is 2 days before my cell phones current billing period expires I decides to go find out how many minutes I have remaning.
Due to an “error” I end up (re)learning what I already know, THAT WINDOWS AND ASP SUCK FUCKING MONKEY BALLS.
🙂 by the way… PHP rules!
Moving into a new place is both the worst and best thing ever. It’s a new place, so you’re stoked, but you had to move 2 (heavy) couches up 3 flights of stairs. So it’s a give and take. But I’m here. I’m in. No more actually going to a place of employment… it’ll be 10 feet from my bed. What does this mean to you, the beloved reader? More posts. So rejoice in Kevin’s new Wash Park residence. Rejoice.
Where do I start… All sorts of companies are cutting back, cutting heads, and just generally taking it up the ass. Even, “well established” companies like Adobe, Nokia, Ericsson, Amazon.com and Sega are stocking up on Tylenol in anticipation of the free-market actually coming into effect. Now Europe is laughing at our dumb asses.
While Apple products have failed on the market many times, with the Newton handheld device as a prime example, others have picked up on Apple’s ideas and turned them into PC standards
Check out this pretty decent article on how Apple gave PC-peeps all the shit they take for granted. This is why Apple will never go away, and if they did, why the PC hardware and software makers alike would be doing heroin to fight off the pain of having to come up with their own ideas.
Okay. I know. The site’s been kinda slow lately, but I promise I will be able to post more shit when I’m working from home. Which will be this week.
This is hilarious but scary at the same time.

So last week, my car got towed from a spot that, yes, I was not supposed to be parked in, although it was within 5 feet of a spot that I could have parked in. I bummed a ride to the towing yard, paid the fees, and angrily got my car back. But it was over.
Or so I thought.
Fast-forward to tonight (Saturday), 7:50PM. I arrived at work and sat down at my computer. One of my co-workers suggested we go see Snatch. Time: 8:00PM. We leave the building, the 3 of us, and arrive at where I had parked my car. Gone. From the spot that I am authorized to park in. Motherfucker. Called the towing company… ‘Yeah, we got it’ was the response I got. When I told him that the towing was unauthorized, and that I wouldn’t pay for my car, he replied ‘Well then you ain’t getting your car back.’ And it’s 8:00PM on a Saturday night, so there’s literally no one here who could have towed my car, right? Wrong. There’s a stupid-ass apartment/garage right in front if where our spots are, and this guy’s been known to be an asshole. So he’s going down.
So a near-useless 25mhz Quadra I had under my desk (laughably next to my G4) has met its fate in the form of launching off the building I soon will not work in. Quite the entertainment, let me tell you. The only thing better would have been if I had thrown a PC from 7 floors up.
Go see Traffic tonight (the site’s pretty good, too, if you’re in the mood for experimental, funky flash). Just do it. Only don’t see it at a theater in Littleton, CO. I wanted to tell the people next to us that they were in the wrong theater, and that ‘Dude, Where’s My Car?’ was down the hall. But I guess I should learn to expect people like that in the suburbs, now shouldn’t I?
The best (worst) line: ‘For a kid my age, it’s much easier to get drugs than it is to get alcohol.’
SO it seems… this is IT.
