Can we vote for a law against morons in power now?
And they wonder why people don’t speak up when shit happens. The Western University of Oregon, in a brilliant act of absolute unrivaled genius, came about *that* close to expelling a student for violating one of the university’s policies. And, for the record, it was a policy that basicly said … Read the rest

I get to do nothing for 4 more hours. Plus breaks.
And all because of a collective clusterfuck that means my entire team misses out on 4.5 hours of training tonight. So now, until 2:00 in the morning at the earliest, barring a natural disaster–they taught us very early in the initial session about the speed of Dell–I get to sit … Read the rest

Should I be worried…?
Either a lot of people really don’t like their jobs, or… well… we have other problems. It’s only been a couple days, but so far my newest website tool (by the way, thankya much, Mike!) has me just a little tiny bit, um… worried. this entry’s has been getting an … Read the rest

BRAINS!!!!!!!
You thought it was only in movies. Well, okay, so maybe you’re a natural conspiracy theorist and… didn’t think that. either way… this is sure no sciense fiction. And all I have to say is… uh, owwy. Owwy owwy owwy. Talk about your holy brain disease, Batman. Killer amoebas–they’re comin’ … Read the rest

Even Dell technicians hate Dell technicians. And Sympatico, and Microsoft, and…
Welp, as some of you know and others of you guessed I’m sure by now, the formerly Vista and now XP computer is up and running. Well, partially. No wireless network support and there’s still a rather lengthy list of devices Windows doesn’t have drivers for. But I’m slowly piecing … Read the rest

James 3, Microsoft 0.
And all because of a little CD HP didn’t send me. Round 1, external HD goes on the blink. Or so I thought. Turns out Windows just decided it suddenly didn’t know what it was. Well, after getting frustrated with that, I decided to go right on ahead and start … Read the rest

because 2 weeks is long enough.
Of course, when you do as much in 2 weeks as I’ve somehow managed to do in *this* 2 weeks, yeah… it’s long enough with no updates. Let’s see… where best to start. Vell, I could always start with the usual, easy routine of what had me so busy that … Read the rest

A smattering of update.
Because I only have a couple minutes before my shift starts. My late birthday present, one hell of a computer, should be shipping today. It’s about time. Apparently, the storm we got yesterday took out my internet service, and Sympatico decided to conveniently state there were no service outages in … Read the rest

It should be legal to show up to work naked.
According to certain forecasts, it’s upwards of 33 degrees C outside right now. Which, ordinarily, wouldn’t be unexpected. Except it’s 6:00 PM for crying out loud. And by the time I get off work tomorrow morning, it’s supposed to still feel like 30 degrees out there. And to that, all … Read the rest

There goes another one.
You can thank Lindsay Lohan for answering my question. She has decided cellebrity stupidity deserves its own category, after this latest Hilton immitation. Maybe I’m wrong, but methinks 2007 is the year of the moron. Folks, this is why you see those shows that strongly advertise don’t try this at … Read the rest
