cf gets even more dull than usual
Ah hell, what a day. I've spent the whole time bouncing back 'n' forth among projects, and at the end of it, I didn't finish one. Oh well. I got MacOS X up and running on my secondary Mac, at least. Now I just have to figure out how to configure my Kerberos settings without the aid of the 'Edit' menu that's supposed to be there... Public betas kick shite. ********** In other news, a Japanese company's figured our how to make a cellphone without an earpiece. How's it work, you ask? Well, you stick your index finger into your ear and speak into a mic on the wristband is how. Weird... ********** I saw the Insider a couple of days ago. Great movie. Russel Crowe really went for the sympathy line. He was brilliant. Actually, the whole cast was phenomenal. I loved it. There was a scene in which Crowe's character's sitting in a pub eating his lunch when the cigaret-company's smear campaign kicks in on the news. I felt so badly for the character that I actually felt a lump start to appear in my throat. I think that's partly due to the fact that I hold mealtime to be a sacred time. I will never, if possible, argue or insult someone while they're eating. I can't. The few times I've ruined a supper by arguing, I've felt so damned bad afterwards... I guess that scene just went straight for that part of me or something. ********** Ugh. Upset stomach. Too much tay, I think. Better cut down. ********** Hm. This is getting boring. Tell you what: for lack of anything better to do, I'll tell you all a bit about myself. I am 28 years old; I am a card carrying member of the Monarchist League of Canada; I vote NDP every federal election; I once got to shake hands with Ed Broadbent; I vote Liberal in every Provincial election; I think it's funny that the Premier of Qu�bec's only go one leg and the Lieutenant Governor's a baggy woman in a wheel-chair; My cats are way cool; I recently walked right into Leonard Cohen and only realised it later; I am deeply in love with my city; I play Bass guitar, Bodhr�n, guitar, and celtic fiddle; I write. A lot; I'm currently designing a line of clothes as a hobby, I used to be an entrepreneur, but I sucked at it; I may do it again someday; I may not; I fight with my lover a lot; I still love her; I like Guinness, Caffrey's, and Kilkenny. I can tolerate most brews by Sleeman's, I don't like any other beers at all; Especially anything by Molson, Labatt, or anything American; I like some scotches, but only the single malts; My favourite is Lagavulin; I am French Canadian with Scottish and Norman roots; I respect very little that is either Scottish or Norman; I am glad not to be from the US or Ontario; I have a long history of disastrous relationships; It helps me write; I do not drive, smoke, or do drugs of any sort other than drink (I got good marks in Biology, so I _know_ what that crap does to you); I would have liked to be a politician; My politics are not exactly red, but more of a light pink; I am not fun at parties.
