Friday Morning Blahs and a Date?

February 10th, 2006 6:45 am | No Comments

Good morning all! It’s Friday. Ugh. It’s about 6:30am, a tad bit earlier than narmal. Today is the first official day of the rollouts of brand new 2×2.3 GHz Mac G5s. It has been a rocky road leading to today. I’m going in early to do some prep before our first rollout at 9 this morning. Wish me luck. Each user will probably have gigabytes of data to transfer.

On the weather front, we have had some wonderful weather. It was 85 yesterday and mostly clear. Thanks to a high pressure system. Today will be a bit cooler as that high moves East.

After work today (1:00pm – Mattel has half-day Fridays) I’m spending the day with my friend Aaron. Aaron is the guy that had been recording SciFi Friday for me when I was cable-less. We haven’t officially met in person yet. We have been talking since I started my podcast back in July ‘05. We have talked on the phone a lot lately and today, we finally meet. I’m scared and excited at the same time. Wish me luck! :)

SoCal Traffic, Idol and SciFi Friday

February 9th, 2006 7:30 am | No Comments

Now, for those that don’t live in Southern California, it’s always difficult to explain the traffic on the Freeways. The 5 was crowded and moving about 15 to 20 mph. This went on for a couple of miles. Then it became apparent that part of the slowdown was that a motorcycle CHP officer had someone pulled over.

I don’t think the CHP should be out in force during rush hour. Their presence alone causes slowdowns. Now I’m not saying there sbouldn’t be any at all, they just shouldn’t be out in force. I recently heard that the CHP has a new iniative to increase tickets to bring in more income. Ugh!

Thursdays tend to be more crowded for some reason. We’ll be a bit late this morning.

So last night was American Idol. They’re in Hollywood and starts the dwindling down. Tonight was the night of the twins. There were two sets of twins that performed. I thought that both sets weren’t worthy to move on. But the first set of twins went to move onto the next round. Their outfits were AWFUL!! what were they wearing?!? Anyway, once they made it, they felt it necessary to go on recoed critizing the contestants after them that the “overlords” (what crazy Dave called Simon, Paula and Randy) let people in that they shouldn’t have still upset at comments Paula and Simon made towards them. Let it go…you guys got thru to the next round where you’ll both surely be voted off on. There were some good performances on tonites show. Another performance that stunned me was the story of the little cowboy. The little gay cowboy. Now…I don’t know ifhe is gay..but was that an ascot thingy he was wearing with his cowboy gear? when he moved to the next round, he stomped and jumped around the room like Antoine from “Men In Films” from back in the “In Living Color” days. I look forward to tonite’s show.

I caught a little bit of the last part of Beauty and the Geek 2. Now you all know of my weakness for geeky type guys. They need a gay version of Beauty and the Geek. I would so be there!

More later…we’re almost at the office.

OK all you Mac Geeks out there: Broke Mac Mountain

The funny folks at MightyMcPilgrim.com have made a parody on Brokeback Mountain.

It’s less than a minute long and I got a laugh out of it. Thanks Scott Shumaker for sending me this touching tale in Macdom.
