OK, time for a stupid pronunciation announcement. The word infrastructure really does have 3 R's in it. It is not INFASTRUCTURE. Don't pronounce it that way, Delightful-Boy.

On a similar note, it is not FEBUARY, it is febRuary. And the word picture, really DOES have a C in it.

The game for the day is: get-beaten-on-with-a-stick-until-you-have-fun.

So I buy these speakers for a friend and decide to try them out. A little 6" cube was turning out a whole lotta bass. Outstanding.

I'm back, and I'm bigger than ever!

That's right, Ladies and G's. I've got my new system up and running SETI packets. An Athlon-1400 with 512 MB of DDR SDRAM and an ATA-100 RAID array.

Somebody stop me!

Alias just kicks ass. Who'd have thought - a quality action/drama from ABC?! Well, I hope they keep it up.

Oh, and, more with the blue vinyl outfit would be cool, too.

So this lady starts feeling my hair in the elevator today. Allllrighty then.

And, I found out that there may a fix for my computer. It turns out it may be a capacitor on the motherboard that is leaking. If it's that simple, I'll rip the bad boy out and solder a new one on tonight. Outstanding!

And if I time it right, I can make up the (almost) 4 weeks of SETI packet time I've lost.

New girl at the gym today. I'll call her tight-shirt chick. Her shirt was on so tight, that I was worried she was going to injure herself. I'm not even joking a bit. It looked like a corset. I offered to give her CPR if she fell over.

Reliable old Roy still has not gotten my check. For those of you keeping track, that's 7 days from Cleveland, Ohio to westernmost New York.

BTW, if you're into that whole back-end thing, there are entire websites out there for you. Of course when I say back-end, I'm referring to things like SQL Server. And if you thought otherwise, you are a sick-o.

OK, so now I'm a bit pissed about the eBay fiasco. The guy's eBay ID is roy6. Please make sure you do not deal with him in any transaction.

Now I have to go through the hassle of blocking payment, all because this guy is probably lying to me.

And people wonder why I'm always in a good mood.

So this guy on eBay (who I sent a cashier's check to) says he still hasn't gotten it. He lives in New York. Gee... could there be a slowdown there perhaps? CALM DOWN!!!

So, I'm cleaning my bedroom window yesterday when it breaks. No problem - I figure - I've got a lot of blankets. It'll be just like camping, right? Cake. Well, any idea how cold it got last night??? Argh!!! It was damn cold! Why does stuff like this always happen to me?

So in any case, Alias last night kicked ass. OK, I thought she looked good with red hair, but the blonde hair with the skin-tight blue dress thing was all good.

Well.... We are at war. God help those who don't get out of the way.

On an interesting side note, every B-52 bomber can carry 70,000 pounds of munitions. That's 35 TONS of firepower. Wow.
