I forgot what the PIN number is for my ATM card. That means I have to go to my credit union and get them to reset it. Can't call 'em, or email 'em. Have to actually walk inside the credit union and wait in line. Not a bad thing come to think of it, I need a new ATM card since they've changed the name of the credit union, might get to meet a hot credit union chick.

Update: somehow remembered my PIN. Hail Satan.

Yes it's true, the new version of iTunes has built in support for Podcasts. Very exciting, kinda, not really, but it's nice. Makes it a bit easier to try out different podcasts, don't have to do any copying of downloaded stuff into iTunes. There's also some kind of video thing now in iTunes I've read about, I guess an RSS feed that has Quicktime in it will display in the Album Art area. Oh and don't forget about the mobile phone thing somebody discovered. Can't find that link, but somebody found some images in iTunes that refer to downloading stuff to a mobile phone. All very very 'yawn' exciting stuff.

Here's a little list of things I'd like.

1. to be left alone (go away telemarketers, etc.)

2. a raise at work

3. win the lotto / mega millons

4. PSP on my doorstep

Sweetness abounds in these free movies. Internet Archive: Feature Films. Reckon I'll be abusing my cable internet for a while. I hope the quality of the transfers from film to digital is good. Gotta buy a DVD burner now. Downloading the original "D.O.A.", not that piece of crap with Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan. Love public domain content.

Bill Murray, a 3 legged dog, Owen Wilson, interns share a Glock. The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou -- The Official Movie Homepage. Goodness, I love these half silly movies. The initial idea must've been something like this, "What about a goof ball Jaques Cousteau who might have an illegimate kid . . . and hijinks ensue".

What a great idea. It's such a hassle plugging my iPod Shuffle into the usb port on my iBook. Duh.

I want this DVD set when it comes out. The New Yorker magazine is fabulous, and to have 80 years of it on DVD for only 100 bucks? Sign me up. I will actually consider buying this. Or I'll try to grab a torrent of it. I guess a cheaper version would be to visit the library, sit and read, if they have all 80 years, would spend a lot of that time in front of a microfiche machine.

Consarn it, I can't take these nosebleeds. Maybe I shouldn't pick it. Man, once it starts bleeding I need about 10 minutes of constant pressure to stop it, and please don't sneeze soon after that 10 minutes. Should contact the Red Cross, or one of those plasma donation places, might be able to bag it up and bring in my excessive blood loss. Although I doubt they let you bring your own blood, they probably want to see it come out so that they're sure about where it's coming from. I blame the air conditioning at my job.

WTF? My favorite radio program started streaming on the net this week. In order to listen you have to use a Windows Media Player session within your browser. If you attempt to listen using Firefox you are prompted to install an Active X plugin for Mozilla. Hunh? I thought Active X was one of the biggest security problems with Internet Explorer. Why would I want to soil my Firefox with Microsoft junk tools? Who the heck is behind this Active X plugin for Mozilla? Needless to say I didn't install it. Can't listen to the live stream at work anyway, don't have any speakers.

Strange, don't need the plugin on the Mac, just need to have a Windows Media player already open and then can listen to the stream. If I don't have the Windows Media player open I get an error about creating tmp files. ARRGHHH, can I ever live a Microsoft free life? That's to say, do the things I want to without having to use Microsoft products? Ideally I'd like to record D&M to listen to at my leisure, maybe on my iPod Shuffle.

My queue is empty! Hadn't been to Netflix for a while. They've changed it, for the better. Now if you hover the pointer over a title it displays the description of the movie, so you don't have to actually click on it and load a totally new page to see the details, very cool. Wonder how long this has been in effect? The way I tend to use Netflix is I'll load up my queue then wait until it's empty before I visit again. Seems like I miss titles that way, being that a movie might not be considered a "New Release" when I go back, and that's where I look for what to rent.

Power went out at my house, linkstation that is my slimserver rebooted. Had to telnet into it from my mac, beauty is that it remembers commands, just push the up arrow on the keyboard until you find the command you forgot to start the slimserver. have to do this because I've never done the smart thing and make slimserver start automatically on boot. BTW, if you ever need to start a slimserver, the command is ./slimserver.pl Just make sure you are in the right folder. For my linkstation it's /usr/local/slimserver

I know what water looks like, just wonder if the Tom Cruise spray was water. It looked kinda like...something other than water don't know what. On a second look, reckon it is just water. Funny that a fake reporter lined up with real reporters. Fake reporter had a phoney microphone that squirts water. Tom Cruise stops to talk to fake reporter and gets sprayed with water from phoney microphone. Ha Ha Ha. Still thinking about if that's funny. Not a fan of Tom Cruise, but it seems like an ambush. It's funny, but he was ambushed.

Had a horrific bloody nose today. It just would not stop. Think I lost a couple of pints, maybe swallowed another pint. Pinched it to no avail, shoved napkins up it until they became saturated, then replaced with new napkins. Somehow it finally got clotted enough so the blood stopped coming out my nose and then went down my throat. Yum.

Poom kinda like marble madness, but not, and harder. Hate it. Thanks to nephew for the pointer to this pain in the ass game.

Bring it on, I know I still need to change some templates so that the ads show everywhere, beyond that, let me know what seems messed up. For me, I think I've done super. Even learned some about CSS, as in you can hide stuff, sneaky.

I've done it now! Deleted all my Movable Type stuff. I imagine there will be problems somewhere along the line.

Cool how much css can do, didn't have paths set right at first, site looked horrible, but with a few changes in setup it looked like I expect it to.

When it first came on TV I thought was too much like Family Guy. Oh, and I think I've got search working, at least it works a lot better than it did.

Isn't this interesting, just a couple of tweaks using the Pelham Skin and Nucleus looks very similar to my Movable Type version of "crapulent". Even the Ads seem to work!

Think I might've crashed my webserver by enabling fancy urls before I made the preperations for it. So I deleted the offending blog and recreated it. Fancy urls can wait, not sure what they are, but it sounded neat. So...here we go again.

Soon, and for the rest of our lives this will be my website, maybe. Have to mess around with the plugins and CSS / layout of it before I go live with it. Very impressed with the Movable Type to Nucleus conversion tool I downloaded, it worked flawlessly. Damn that was easy, wish the Drupal thing I tried had worked as easily. Oh well, I've moved on.

If I owned firearms my neighbors would be sorry. Can't stand to hear them yapping across the street. Keep it inside people. Close your doors like civilized folk. Or else, bang bang, head shots and I go to jail. Good thing I don't have any guns...yet.

Me likey this, need me job to send me to New York so I can see it. Didn't read any of the text. Probably wouldn't want to actually see it person. Might be able to get job to pay for a Vegas trip ... wouldn't feel right about it.

Just watched the movie titled "Kinsey". Not thrilled by it, found it interesting, overall me liked it. Would've liked more dirty pictures.

Linkstation is doing ok, think it has asthma, making lots of noise while it breaths, so far hasn't lost any data. Fear is that if it can't get enough air might start losing brain cells. BTW Linkstation is the nickname for my pet chimpanzee. Not really a cost effective data storage device.

My Linkstation might be dying! It shut itself off today, turned it back on, and the fan was really noisy. Gee whiz I hope the drive in it doesn't get too borked ... the Linkstation is my Slimserver and iTunes folder, and alarm clock...gosh, I put a lot of pressure on that little ARM cpu. Hope it can come back and wake me up like it used to.

btw, talking out my butt, no clue if it has an ARM cpu or not, all's I know is it worked fine up until a couple days ago ... kinda funny it coincides with Apple announcing the move to Intel chips for the low to mid range Macs ... what does ARM have to do with Intel vs IBM? I'm sleepy and not making any sense...Yeah profit margins!

Didn't Ween cover Snoop Dog's Gin n' Juice? Is this an original idea? Don't like it. A novelty that sucks after the first listen.

It's a shame that "The Unicorns" aren't making music anymore (as far as I know). I love all the ghostly tunes...Ghost Mountain, Tuff Ghost, Sea Ghost. Wonder what they are up to now? If they had had a hit they could've been on the crappy NBC show "Hit Me One More Time".

Even though I had to force quit Mail App iTunes kept playing without pause. Seems like Mail is a frequent offendor when it comes to closing or rebooting. Perhaps Tiger fixes Mail...

I'd rather read. Stole an audio book with the help of Pirate Bay torrent site. Who wants to listen to somebody read to them? I'm not a little kid tucked up in bed. Give me the book and let me read it. I'd be into the Sony Libre ebook thing now that somebody figured out how to put non DRM'd texts on it.

Love Steve Martin as an actor, snooze if he reads his book to me. Do people that buy audio books think they have read the book? Stupid people. The human brain is kooky. Reading and listening are not equal.

Sorry, but this creeps me out. Ewww, ewww, ewww. Had to pause between ewwws.

Why is my post about rewatching Blade Trinity showing up twice? This site has been crippled ever since I tried to export it in a format Drupal could read. Since I havn't fixed it, gotta go through with the conversion to Drupal. Reckon I'll be better off once I do it...consarn it. Pain in the ass fucking hobby web site makes me want to cry.

Oh and speaking of pains in the ass, where is the new Twit podcast?

Swear to Satan I didn't post the Blade Trinity thing twice. Got rid of the bogus one.

Is there a mac eDonkey client? Don't know, never wanted one because I knew it had spyware bundled with it. But if this is true I'd be interested. Now if only my BroadVoice service could unbundle the fuckup random disconnects...that would be fantastic.

Do pugs ever stop shedding? Sheesh, hair everywhere. Staying at my folks place for who knows how long and they've got a couple of pugs. I would think that in the cold weather they'd keep as much hair as possible. Maybe when it gets colder.

iPhone glass replacement kit showed up today. The glass in the kit was broken. Shoot.

Dummy at work told me that today. He voted, but didn't vote for president, just local elections. All because of the electoral college system we have, his lame state of Idaho only has 4. He claims that he hates the electoral college system and would rather that the popular vote would prevail. Hey dummy, you didn't vote for president, so yours didn't count period. Obama won the popular vote as well.

The movie still sucks, but it looks a lot better in Blu-Ray. I will say that you can sort of tell the bad guys from the good guys in the higher def version. Viewing the DVD version I couldn't really follow the action, or tell which robot was which. To be honest I was catching up on email and stuff during the heavy CGI scenes. Just wanted to see what's her name in a belly shirt and short skirt in high def.

I've seen that people take credit for my work. Not difficult work, took me 15 minutes or less to do it, squeezed it out before I left on Friday. Emailed the result of my work to the coworker that requested it. Subsequently read an email where that coworker claimed that they created it, they may have edited it, but don't take full credit. Just gives me more reason to hate on folk. This particular coworker couldn't have created it ever. Best to move on if able. Will be with some folk this weekend that might have some options.

It's obvious. Why even debate it? If you look at Kristen Wiig's nose in "Walk Hard" and how it looks on the most recent episodes of SNL, it's clear that she had a nose job. I personally think she looks better.

WTF does "opposed defending marriage" mean? Does that mean he or she thinks homos should be able to get married? Fucking christians need to learn that America isn't a theocracy yet. Are there any non-religious congresspersons or senators?

I just bought a new glass screen and tools to replace it off eBay. Shit is coming from Hong Kong. Why do they call it 2G? That 2G stuff confuses me. Anyway, even if it's the wrong size it was only around 14 bucks. Isn't the 3G iPhone the second generation? They claim it fits a 4 gig iPhone, so that would be a first generation iPhone.

A local company can replace the busted glass screen on my iPhone for "... $65 (parts), $10.88 Shipping, and $35 labor...", so hmm, math, let's see 110.88. Cheaper than sending it back to Apple. Too bad I don't have some other phone lying around I could put the sim card into during the repair time. They say 5-10 days turnaround. Would they need to have my iPhone the whole time? Need to find out what it would cost to get out of my ATT contract. Then go T-Mobile and G1, depending on what it costs to dump ATT. Although, I'm liking an App on the iPhone called GasHog that helps you track how many miles per gallon you get, and what the fuel costs per mile.

That G1 looks goofy, has no standard headphone jack, doesn't play video, not truly open thanks to T-Mobile, has a 2 year contract like ATT.

Fuck it, I'm stuck. Maybe I'll get the 3G iPhone instead and sell the busted one to help offset the cost. I'll have to make sure to take blurry pictures of it.

It was very easy to setup the first 3 times. Why 3 times? Well, I'm trying to use Boxee on it and that requires some work, not really, but I tried it over again when samba wasn't working. Still need some work to get samba shares to load. All the iTunes stuff works great, I can stream any media in my iTunes library fine, movies I've bought, podcasts, music I've bought. What I really want is samba shares to work. That will involve some ssh and ftp work. NitoTV may be the answer. Not a novice to ssh or ftp so I'm not scared about it, just too late in the day to tackle it tonight.

BTW: Never knew I could boot from a USB card reader.

BTW 2: The 2.2 Apple TV update included 1080p.
