Odds and ends

Howard Dean is Blogging

Thanks to Vacumkitty for this heads up this am. I have posted the Dean official blog site in my list of links to the right below the pictures. Its great to watch this phenomenon grow, an "insurgency" campaign is always fun. I enjoyed watching McCain last election and should enjoy Dean's even more as I agree with most of what he is saying. In the end though I feel very strongly that fielding Dean against Bush is a mistake, Dean will not play in the parts of America that swing right or left, and this is where the DNC must push the hardest.



Every other Monday is Bachelor Night

L stays overnight in-territory every other Monday night. Usually this is "boys night in" where A and I usually rent a cool DVD - either a action adventure or top kids movie and we have something perfectly unhealthy for dinner.

Weirdness last night is that of course Alex is on the Left Coast this week at the beach with my side of the family. So I watched some B-5's that I record on my new DVR from Time Warner, as well as Friday's SG-1 season 7 episode. I still have to get through Sunday's talking heads programs that I also have recorded.

Actually went to bed at a decent hour and I'm STILL very tired from this weekend. Ah I remember when I could pull an all nighter and be recovered by the second day. Of course I was 18 then!



Which one works better?

OBCD today: Oodles of Al Stewart shows I got from the AlStewart server - all MP3.. yea but good quality regardless of the fact.

QOTD: Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.

Ok so what happened to daily postings? 1) I don't have something to say every day? (not likely if you know me). 2) I'm already bored with this blogging thing (not likely as my attention span is a bit better than that) NO it is 3) NO bloody time!!. More later today. Somebody has to do something, and it's just incredibly pathetic that it has to be us. -- Jerry Garcia, (of the Grateful Dead)

Saturday Night and Sunday Saturday Night Dinner and Martini's Our dinner at Bamboo Asian Fusion was very good. This place was a bog standard "Hibachi cooking table" restaurant, as well as the best of the fine dining at the Paradisus. The restaurant lived up to its name on both counts, very good food, but not superlative performance. The only complaint I had was that the food was much saltier than normal. I started the night with a Coconut Martini, which was actually quite good as a starter drink. I had another at the dinner, but the sweetness was a bit much so I switched to regular dry Vodka Martini's. This was a mistake because five or so later.. well I was hungover the next day. In the mean time we had a really fun time after dinner hanging out with lots of Liza's friends. You will even find a picture of one of the women we were hanging with smoking a cigar on the Photo Bucket site . Another lovely night in Paradise. Sunday - ATV ride and the Closing dinne...

Computer Tech Spent a good five hours today working with the new ED computers. The boss had finalized arrangements Friday for a new place for the new company so we are out of the old building finally. I really hated going in to the old building every day! Anyway the owner's sister (remember this is a NEW owner - not the much berated old owner of the old business) is a CIS person for a big corporation. They just upgraded their old computers so she was able to gift us with two Dell computers. One is sweet: 128 Mg Ram, decent size HD for business, PII chip and Windows 98se. The other was problematic however: it had 2000 professional in it so I had to reformat the HD with Windows 98se (so the two computers could network if needed). It only has 64 mg of Ram and it also has a PII. The problem was that the video card - not on the motherboard thank god - would not work in 32bit color with W98. Well I had an ATI Rage laying around that I bought for A's computer but could no...
