Let me start by saying that it is hard to type around an unconscious cat who only likes to sleep in places that are detrimental to my productivity, so excuse any typos and misformed sentences and/or thoughts.
Second, I have finally come to terms with the Cardinals Super Bowl loss, meaning that if anyone ever mentions it to me I will punch them right in the neck.
A few days ago, I walked out onto the deck to feed the growing population of animals, which include three cats, two oppossums and a skunk, and what should happen? The skunk basically attacked me. I could see the hatred in his beady little eyes as he waddled up onto the deck. I don’t want to go into details here, but let’s just say there was a high pitched scream and a lot of running involved.
And speaking of cats, we managed to catch the stray male that hangs around here and took him to be nuetered. He seemed fine with living in the garage for a few days and with the fact that he was now missing a few parts. That will probably all change the first time he tries to hump another cat.
I’ve finally gone and done it. I moved my Mac from my living room, where I no longer need it’s media center services and relocated it on my office desk where I have begun using it full time. It’s something I wanted to do for a long time, but the cold, cruel world forced me to use Windows in it’s various incarnations. So far, after nine days of going from part time Mac user to full time Mac user, I have only booted my PC twice. The first time was to relocate work files to my Mac, and the second time was to create a backup in case it decides to freak out. I still have to keep the PC handy because, once again, the cold, cruel world and my job dictate to me that I must use it because everyone else does, and I am sure that periodically I will have to access it for some horrible, horrible reason. I will, however, only access it through remote desktop via the Mac so that I am still technically using the OS that I want to use. It’s a small victory, but a victory nonetheless.
To commemorate this wonderful occasion, I have written my own Mac commercial starring yours truly. It goes something like this.
Me : “Hello, I am a Mac”
Other Guy : “And I am a PC”
Me : “Say, does PC stand for Piece of Crap?”
Other Guy : “I’m sorry, did you say something? I was too busy basking in the glow of my market share.”
Me : “Oh yeah? Well…… SHUT UP!”
And then the apple logo would appear and the commercial would end.
It’s been pretty cold here lately. So cold in fact that my typing has slowed to a crawl. Just to get to this point has taken 36 and a half minutes. The temperature outside right now is 87 degrees below absolute zero. In case you are not up to speed on your science, that is pretty darn cold. It’s cold enough to freeze things solid. SOLID!!!!

So me and Karen were driving down the road and she was flipping through various radio stations and eventually came across a song she liked but didn’t know who it was. I said, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle this”, and I whipped out my iPhone, started up the Shazam app and 12 seconds later not only did we know the name of the song and the band, but we also knew that the band was seriously lame and annoying. Well, the lame and annoying part was just intuitive, but the rest was all iPhone.
