In 3days – O+)> Colonized Mind starts out like something Red Hot Chili Peppers might do, but turns into something really quite nicely done. #
I have a spare box now that I’ve decided Windows Home Server is essentially pointless. Let’s see. UbuntuStudio 9.04b or Mythbuntu 9.04b? #
Ripley and I are now officially walking garlic bombs. Hooray for Falafel King on Davie & Thurlow. Also, giraffes are freakin’ WEIRD. #
Finally hauled out the Rayman Rabbid Rabbits or whatever it’s called. That game is MESSED up. Sorta creeped out Ripley, I think. Rated E. #
Watching Bravo tonight. Snape as Rasuptin. Gandalf as a evil dad. Am I high? #

Obviously not keeping up on my Prince stuff, since he’s got (*cough*) THREE albums coming out. I’m scared, but hopeful that they won’t pop. #
Watching “Life On Mars” but I’ve missed too many. I have NO clue what’s going on. Wonder if I can Wikipedia the storyline. #
New Prince site: LotusFlow3r – Reminds me of the “Interactive” CD game from back in the day. #

Win Home Server – Good: automatically spans whatever drives you have installed. Bad: bases free space on first drive. (Currently 209% free) #
Okay, so maybe next time I do a backup of my netbook to the Windows Home Server, I won’t do it over wifi. Currently at hour 8 and counting. #
RT @voodoobettie: An Open Company = taking FOSS to the next level, is it the end of evil corporations? Potentially: #

Not sure “everyone needs one,” but I’m building a Windows Home Server because I know one day someone will want one. #
Oh, and have I mentioned how much I’m loving the new highspeed at home? Was 159KB/s, is now averaging around 900KB/s on Shaw. SAME PRICE. #
Even if Daily Show is a rerun, it’s almost worth it to watch Cramer receive the “Silver Ass On A Plate Award” all over again. #
Speaking of the Ass-Handers Award, “Mark and Brian” are avail online and on-demand: #

Looking for something that’ll track time for a small firm. Opensource and simple would be great. No need for PCLaw or anything like that. #
Funny – watching people read my hat (those in town who can read it). “Nin… ten… do… doesn’t mean anything – why you hat say that?” #

RT @rainnwilson: Where else but SoulPancake do you get to hear Frightened Rabbit and contemplate Life’s Big Questions? #
Yet another “What do you mean my memory card is BLANK?” utility. DiskDigger. Yet another thing on my toolbelt. #
Good: Making tea for my wife. Bad: Not noticing that her little thingie of milk was off by three days… Whoops. #
Finally watching the S04E19 of Battlestar Galactica tonight. 7pm on a Friday is the wrong time slot for us Vancouverites on SciFi channel. #
On a Twitter freakout currently. Trying to make up for lost time, I suppose? Next, I’ll have to do another post a day blogging month, too. #
Bought control vinyl for turntablism (http://bit.ly/jCsEf) but haven’t fired up Mixxx yet to see if it works. Me? DJ? #
I feel ike trying to catch up with an old friend when you know you have to go soon. There’s lots to talk about, but I’ll blog it later. #
Arwen’s making an avant garde minimalist sock monkey “who is powerless to do or speak without arms or a mouth” GERMAN. ANGST. MONKEY. #
RT @kaylasara: Windows 7 is to Vista what XP was to ME. #
Nice piece about what the Kutiman tracks “mean.” “So amazing, so illegal. What are we going to do with you, future?” #
Fill in the blank: Take that stuff out of the computer CASE and put it into a ______ and that’ll be a cool computer. (Old Big Jewelry Box?) #
