Baseball’s strike threat is only a scant 3 hours away from becoming a reality. I’ve still got my fingers crossed because I’ve been cursed with eternal optimisim and I always try to make the best of a shitty situation. That and it looks like they may actually be clsoe to a deal after an all-night negotiation session.
Update: I still find it hard to believe, but the owners and the players have reached a tentative agreement and the games will continue. Will wonders never cease….
With a stack of blank CD-R’s and the help of CD Session Burner I finally have hard-copy backups of my photos and works from as far back as 7 years, all in preperation of wiping my iBook clean when I install Jaguar later this week.
I guess I should be kissing fate’s ass that I survived this long without a catastropic loss of data that could have wiped everything I saved and worked so hard on for so long. Then again, I think fate’s just paying me back from the four or five times I did wind up losing everything on my system back when I was learning what to do and what not to do with my first PC.
Screw the flying car, I want to be able to drive without a car like these two racers do in this stop-motion video.
HP and Dell are dumping MS Works for WordPerfect: While I’m extreemly glad to hear this (maybe it will bring some parity back into the world of Office programs & force some format standards), it comes as somewhat of a shock. I guess that Microsoft’s hold isn’t as strong as it once was. I guess when a company is trying to save some cash and they know they’re being blatantly gouged they actually DO something about it.
Eleven months after the events of September 11th and one of the missing has been found. A sidewalk vendor by the name of George Sims was found to be at a Manhattan hospital, suffering from both schizophrenia and amnesia. Others who were on the list of dead and/or missing have also been found in the past few weeks. Chalk this up in the “good news” column.
