A Night Out With Cari February 25, 2007

I can only imagine what kids Cari’s age do these days based upon my own dim memories of childhood mayhem. The following depicts a party and a couple Jedi’s who lose their temper, in my head this is what it must be like.

In the past few months I’ve treated myself to a few gadgets. Thanks to a few BestBuy gift cards including one from David and another as part of my winnings from Terry I purchased a Half A TerabyteMyBook 500GB (half a terabyte baby) external drive, sporting both firewire and USB 2. I’ve been using this as a backup device for all my music, photos and important docs from my home workstation and laptops.
I also purchased a SanDisk Ultra® II SD™ Plus USB 1GB card for my digital camera. This is the kind that doesn’t require a card reader and “breaks” in half, having it’s own USB connection - very cool.

I still have a few memory sticks that require a reader, so I also picked up a USB SanDisk ImageMate® 5-In-1 Reader/Writer primarily for my laptop, the desktop has a built in one.

I love my MacBook Pro, it handles mounting of removable media much smoother than Windows, and more reliable than Linux, but with the same ability to access via CLI for automation. Muy sweet.

“Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.”

Brilliant. I might add that if you ever want to go beyond putting your friends hand in a container of warm water while they sleep, this would be the way to go. Especially if they have tiny creepy hands.

More humorous wisdom ala Dave Berry here.

JEWCari posts about a band I’ve never heard of, Jimmy Eat World (alt link). I decided to follow her link over to YouTube to view a live concert recording of the song 23. I dig it, but in a sad way. The lyrics remind me of love long gone and happy times of my youth that can’t be recaptured.

Thanks for dredging up painful memories Cari and bumming me out, I’m shipping you’re frozen raccoon now.

This post is being made from deep under my covers - the contractors don’t sleep and appear to be deaf.

Ugh they’re all trying to sing
