Settling back into the school

Settling back into the school life, trying to get some reading done. The floor is still kind of empty, people are gradually returning. I find the I don’t spend as much time in front of the computer here because the chair is no where near as comfortable. I find sitting here for extended lengths of time makes some part of the body sore. I found my love for irc again today, I never have been a huge napster fan. Napster has been terrible since the school limited it’s bandwith usage, it’s faster to get songs off it through my dial-up at home. On irc, downloading isn’t limited by the school, it’s only throttled by the people serving up the songs.

Steve Jobs indroduced a new

Steve Jobs indroduced a new line of imacs today that are tie-dyed, dubbed flower power. The thing is absolutely hideous. It says in the article that it could possibly be a wise decision, targeting the computers at the young girls and women who represent a large chunk of purchasing power. I don’t think i could stand that thing sitting on my desk, although i’d accept one if someone decided to give it to me.



Keeping with the current trend

Keeping with the current trend of displaying hot people, john indroduces his gallery of everyday hotties. My guess is the majority of these people don’t know john and they never figured that someone like john would visit their personal page and download that picture someone took while they were drunk and pretending to be a prostitute. Oh the joys of the internet.


Been doing a bit of

Been doing a bit of design work tonite. Some ideas for suffocate and some other ideas in my head. Not a hugely productive day, should have done some more reading than i did. Picked up a suit tonite, the first suit i’ve ever owned. It’s one of those things that’s important to have I guess.
