The client I’m at this week has a guy that’s recently a hardcore Mac switcher. He let me play with his iTitanium Powerbook and I’m just about ready to dig into my savings and pick one up. mmmmmm

Everytime I turn around, Apple has cool stuff I want. For example, I’d really like to be able to drop 2.52 terabytes of RAID in my bedroom server rack! drool So pretty too…

They’re putting price tags on anything these days! Liechtenstein is putting itself up for rent to try to attract tourism. Maybe I should rent out my room to people when I’m not home - that could be rather profitable, but messy if somebody refused to move back out every week. ;)

So you think remembering which place is read and which place is write and what value each reprents when it comes to ‘chmod 740’ unix permissions is tough?

In addition, it’s got a scraping feature that still allows me to monitor silly sites that don’t have an RSS feed. It’s still in development limbo, but it’s quite stable and I’ve been using it just fine for a few weeks now.

Another lazy day full of aspirations, but what I have really accomplished? Nothing, really. Been working on the dev site, but nothing really noticeable yet. I also finished Medal of Honor - w00t! Ah well…

Being the anal person that I am about my car these days, I’ve been getting it washed every now and then this winter. I go to a place called down the street from me. What you do is pay for the touch free wash, and there are about 4 or 5 guys waiting to dry your car when you come out. Depending on the hour of the day, the service I receive varies widely. For example: ...

One time, a long, long time ago I had disc with both Win2K and NT4 on it. The end result was Win2K with IE2 installed on it. I just found that screenshot in my archives. Not too shabby!
