well, with the need for a laptop at school waning, i decided it was a good time to trade up to a better machine, and get some value for my Power­Book while i still could. long story made short, i met a guy who wanted a power­book, and was will­ing to trade a nice pow­er­mac for it. so that’s the story on that.

any­ways, i got a 1ghz Pow­er­Mac, and have since bought another 512mb of RAM and a super­drive for it, so i have a gig of ram, and a DVD burner. addi­tion­ally, i bought a 20″ Apple Cinema Dis­play last week, so i’m rock­ing what i con­sider a very nice machine. i was plan­ning on buying a g5 this summer, but now i’ll wait a while before i take that plunge.

this baby flies. i thought my power­book was fast, but it’s seri­ously half the speed of this machine. eat my dust!

here is an arti­cle about the newest trends in human behav­ior: half heart­edly talk­ing on the phone while chat­ting online, walk­ing down the side­walk talk­ing on your cell phone … basi­cally being phys­i­cally some­where, but your mind is else­where. a good read.

the author says it best, when they say:

Just as feast­ing on an abun­dance of rich, avail­able food can make you over­weight, so we seem gorged on too much easily accessed infor­ma­tion. We need a kind of infor­ma­tion diet.

i think we’re all guilty of this type of infor­ma­tion over­load (myself included) way too much in this day and age. when i’m bored, the first thing i do is plop down in my chair and start surf­ing. we always have to be con­nected, always occu­pied. i know that i per­son­ally have to get away from this type of ‘lifestyle’ and start get­ting out­side more.

i have to say that the weather in the past year has been so nice. while other parts of the coun­try were deal­ing with record highs, and right now parts are going thru record cold snaps, Atlanta is expe­ri­enc­ing record awe­some tem­per­a­tures. i don’t think it got much higher than 90 last summer, and it’s been pretty warm all winter as well. the high today is around 60, and it’s only get­ting down to the low 40s at night. if this is our winter, bring it on.

speak­ing of nice weather, i’ll be going back to florida in 2 weeks with the IPS boys again. i have some vaca­tion time saved up at work that i have to use before i can get any more, so i figure what better time to use it. as per usual, it’ll be nice to get away from here for a while.

okay, that may be a stretch, but this is seri­ously price­less. a woman tried to use a monop­oly ‘get out of jail free’ card when being sen­tenced. check it out, and laugh muchly.

appar­ently, Limp Bizkit and Creed are the worst bands of 2003, as per Guitar World magazine.

stuff like this just brings a smile to my face.

also notably, ‘all pop-​punk bands’ came in as #4 (and my arch ene­mies, Good Char­lotte, came in at #5.)
