Wow. The LJ client software just so totally underscores the …. blandness of Windows software vs everything else. I mean, for total cuteness and elegance you can’t beat the OSX versions like XJournal. The Linux versions like LogJam and Drivel aren’t exactly eye candy by any measure, but they at least [...]

Senator Byrd’s Speech on the Senate Floor
Sen. Robert C. Byrd (D-West Virginia)
February 15, 2006
Mr. President, in June of 2004, 10 peace activists outside of Haliburton, Inc., in Houston gathered to protest the company’s war profiteering. They wore paper hats and were handing out peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches, calling attention to Haliburton’s reported overcharging on a [...]
Mysticblue here to stay

After careful analysis of my options, I am sticking with this colour sceme because I think it is nifty looking and the other choices sucked and I’m too lazy to make my own. At any rate it’s quite pretty looking on a Mac, it’s only PCs that it’s hard to read on. ‘S [...]

Oh, I was right about the dvd isos. I’d have had the third one too, only I just didn’t tell the system to download it because………….. I dunno.. I just didn’t. Anyway, I was also compiling my own Linux kernel. This is simple. Especially since I happen to have only [...]
Why Windows Sucks ASS

Spiffy game

This is a game of spiffiness that I’ve recently become addicted to: Metal Blob Solid It’s a very uber spiffy thing. You should get it and play it. I don’t think there’s a Windows version, but that is right and proper because it is silly to develop a game for an [...]
Live Journal is weird

Ok, so I decided that I’d make it so that other people could comment on my journal instead of just people who I’ve got on my friends list. Doing this I discover that LJ is about as easily (or at least logically) navigable as an 8-dimensional labrynth designed by Escher! The setting for [...]
