Thingbits

• Unfortunately, the turkey pot pi was somewhat underwhelming.
  
• I'm thinking an external hard drive might be handy. LaCie is good, right? I should probably shop around a little.
  
• I got XTC, Tom Petty, and Alanis Morissette CDs today!
  
• Naturally, I am dismayed at Livejournal reaching new, untouched levels of idiocy by deleting the Basic Account option for new users. Like certain wise people (only with more laziness), I am honestly thinking about striking out on my own and just reading/reposting here. For the less lazy pessimistic, though: thanks to conuly, a update with the proper RL contact info for complaining.
  
• To the guy about the IF thing: it's still rattling around in my head - expect mail soon.
  
• Anybody around here play Core War or interested in starting? (Bear in mind I'm still yak shaving - do you believe that OS 10.3.9 didn't come with GCC installed? - so I won't be sending any warriors up any hills yet.)
  
• Looking at the stack of lab reports that need grading, it seems my panicking skills are fully intact. Also my procrastination skills.
  
• It's quarter to midnight? Okay, I gotta go to bed - ciao!
  
• (P.S. Does anyone know how to fix a flaky trackpad on an iBook G4? The button keeps sticking.)
