Carmel Cider

I just finished listening to episode 40 of This Week in Tech and they had Steve Wazniak along with Kevin Mitnick on the show.

They were online from outside of a Starbucks in Las Vegas.

It was an interesting listen. I learned two interesting things: Woz is a tech geek just like your computer guy šŸ˜‰ And he likes Hot Carmel Cider.

This is so true!

I’m gonna open up a can of whoop-ass

To:

Genghis Khan

Why?

Because they were walking around like a crazy person muttering to themselves

Ok, I just got done doing a Windows XP install for a friend.

Windows XP pro
Service pack 2

I installed Norton (Big mistake) but watching the scan, the system had over 38 THOUSAND files on it. This is absolutely ridiculous. When the heck did an OS get this large?

Can I buy a clue for $50 Pat?

Ok, so I went to Time Warner today to find out the difference between their HD cable boxes and Cable Card.

Can you actually believe I was told.. “You can not get High Definition signals with the Cable Card.”

My mouth actually tried to speak but I couldn’t.

Do you fancy me a prirate?

A curse be on Mario for pointing me to this site! And after seeing that arr, bad pirate skit on SNL last week..

My pirate name is:

Black Sam Rackham

Like anyone confronted with the harshness of robbery on the high seas, you can be pessimistic at times. You have the good fortune of having a good name, since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham) is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!
