what a day

Got the presentation done - went well - audience was a bit subduded - kinda like the shitty 1/2assed crappy trashcan worthy digital projector they had there for me to use.

Why the FUCK can't anyone have a GD computer projector that is FUCKIN worthy of displaying images AS well as the damn laptop? They can't even TOUCH the CRT display - pisses me off... The crux of all my presentations is the images - and often they are single R or B or G images... but usually both and often grayscale... shouldn't be a problem, right? as you may guess - WRONG.

and other people are shocked when i'm bitching... they are like 'oh well it works for us'

WORKS FOR YOU? cause you are blind, don't give a shit or have no expectations for perfection.

grumble grumble

okay - now for some hysterical news: Just like on Dateline's pimpin old perverts show we've got this... Homer-land Security fer farks sake! This dude should serve time with a dad in the pen with a teenage daughter that he isn't allowed to see on the outside... Sick freaking "Press Secretary"

WTF? Oh and he's just being put on "Administrative Leave?" Of course until they've (homer-land central) conducted a full invesitgation... Sure lemme hear on Drudge of FauxNews that its a Democratic smear campaign...

Some freaky evolution guy in michigan told me to check out FatCyclist's stuff... i did - not the same draw for me as a few of the locals (solobreak, kerry and co) and the established guys like big jonny and no i'm too lazy to wiki style link em all (GD 32sixteen for now making me associate linkin words with wiki - GD=god damn... not like in Derek's which is General Discussion). Anyway... maybe i'll add that to the list of hey lemme check it out...

maybe not...

something else i think... Oh yeah... this: Penn and Teller's show (that i can't watch cause its on showtime and i don't get cable/sat TV, not that i could watch it if i did cause i'd prolly NOT pay for that 'premium' channel anyway) its about Gun Control. Freaking BRILLIANT. Donna matta what side ya on on the topic - its well worth the 30 minutes (if ya have a good broadband connection) to watch it (its a google video link).

Well its about the time to make like a tree in spring and leaf. I love that expression as a botanist but it makes me groan and go - gimme a break when i hear it... i love the dichotomy... kinda like a 7th chord... definately not right but a great conflict of emotions.

oh and it was snowing today... then it was raining when i walked down to the lecture... now it's mellowed out a bit and even warmed up... perfect for riding home... except of course that the Freaking GD wind is straight out of the north... headwind all the way... WHOOO HOOOO...

I need a Beer... The PBR i had last night was dated May 5th 2006... so what's 112 days before that? well may 5th is day 126... so... damn some time around christmas... this beer is OLD... fark ah well its still a PBR - the beer the penny pinchin trendy messengers have been drinking for 30 odd years... or should i say the NON-Trendy ones... the ones with local messenger bags and twiggy pysiques....

alright - i'm out... and with that - peace to yall... and if ya are chatting inappropriate like with a 14 year old girl - may YOU get run over next time... spare good people like Bill Corliss, Kendra Payne, and the long long long list of people nailed by busess or cars this year so far...
