Ok, now I’m pissed. SHIT, PISS, FUCK! I just spent an hour changing my tire in the rain. Damnit! Thank goodness Jason was able to give me a hand. Ok, I was going to go with Pete to the Diner, he was kinda in the dumps so I figured it might cheer him up and get him out of the house. In the two blocks it takes to get there, I must have driven over something, or maybe the tire just gave out, because as soon as we pulled in, I could here the hissing of air. We quickly drove back, not wanting to be stranded at a diner for hours waiting for AAA.

When Jason came back, I told him what happened and he offered to help put the spare on. After a HALF HOUR spent trying to get the fucking hubcap off, we finally got the now completely flat tire off and put the donut back on in it’s place. So, tomorrow, after class, it’s off to the tire place I go, to get a new tire on the car. This shouldn’t have happened, I just got a whole net set. DAMNIT! Arg. So, now its 2:15am and I’ve got to be up by 7 to get to class.

Please, someone tell me they’re

Please, someone tell me they’re not serious. The record industry that is. It seems there’s an evil little product from Macrovision’s SafeAudio that inserts “bad” error-correction codes, which audio CD players can interpolate around, but higher-precision CD-ROM drives don’t, effectively preventing you from listening to or ripping any tracks on your PC. Story here.

Random stuff to check out:

AdAware – removes Spyware stuff.. very cool.

MyNapster – Open source freeware file sharring program.

WinCustomize – skinning resource and archive.

Be back, more randomness later.

I just had the most

I just had the most fun I’ve had in a long time. Lauren, Nagle and I went downtown to Cafe M, this cool little jazz club, sat there and had drinks and listened to swing’in jazz till it was time to leave. I love jazz. The little trio really ran the gamut when it came to songs. Everything from “My funny valentine” and “It had to be you” to “It don’t mean a thing” (my personal favorite). We’re going to have to do that again. If anyone is looking for me on Friday and Saturday nights, I’ll be down at the club, fedora and cigar in hand, enjoying some of this town’s finest jazz. Later.

Hey kids, today is homework

Hey kids, today is homework day. I’m gonna sit down and finish some work for Digital class. But, just so you guys don’t feel left out. I figured I’d upload a few pictures for you to take a look at. They’re linked to bigger images, so just click on’em to see the bigger version. I also stuck a “copyright” on them so no one desides to steal them. It’s kinda sad that I have to do that, but we won’t get into it. Also note, each of the “larger” images is very large, at least 200k+, just to let you know incase you’re on a slow connection. Ok, all three of the pictures were taken in the span of a week when I was still up in NH. The first one is down a dirt road in the middle of no where. It’s been “split-toned” which means it’s been run through about 30 chemicals to get it to have such a drastic color shift. It was originally B&W!! Both the second and third ones were taken in Merrimack NH, in and around Silver Lake. Ok, take a peak. Enjoy.
