/me has been slacking (brownie points for anyone who knows what that's a reference to :D )

 

Halfway through the year...

Projected posts to thread at year-end: 2,842

 

Even did the math in my head...no need to resort to the Calculator applet (although if I didn't know how to multiply by 2 in my head, I'd be worried). :D

/me is a command used in IRC to display something said in the third person. This is the precursor (by a long shot) to FB status updates.

 

/me is chatting with random ppl on teh internets!

 

would look like this on a chat screen:

 

*Ikhnaton is chatting with random ppl on teh internets!

 

 

IRC is where I got my start on the interweb many many moons ago.

Today was a good day. :)

 

Caught up with old friends. Sat on the beach in my favorite location in the world. Watched fireworks and a bonfire. Great dinner.

 

If every day was like this, life would be great!

Yes. A/C working flat out today. Still kinda warm and sticky in the house at that...

 

Drunk schmuck tried to pick a fight with me yesterday on the subway... as far as I can tell, based solely on how I was dressed. I didn't rise to his provocations... but part of me wanted him to try something so that I'd be forced to shut his idiot yap for him. :rolleyes:

 

Speaking of the subway: It's bound to be some interesting commutes for the next couple of days... the heat brings out the best of the city. A feast for the senses... the sights, sounds... and smells... should be pretty intense while the heat wave is on. :dozey:

 

Oh... and so far, I'm not a huge fan of Windows 7. Looks sexy... But it's proving itself to be much, much, buggier than XP.

Yes. I worked with it briefly one day on a friend's machine... but that was the entire extent of my exposure.

 

7 has crashed a few times on me. Some conflict somewhere... gonna have to spend some time shutting off background apps and services to trim it up.
