courtney pic.jpg
Anyone who knows me well, knows the tale of Courtney Johnson.  The full story can only be told over cold beers, but the short is this is a girl I crushed on hard in 7th grade, then she moved away and in the pre internets age I thought that was that, THEN she showed up in the same city as me for college and I ended up reconnecting with her.  However, this serendipitous event was not enough, and my awkward attempts to get a date with her led to getting spit in my face.  So...15 years later, Courtney is a photographer and feels kind of bad about spitting on me.  She just put together a pretty sweet show called "human cities" and sent me a sweet print set of Tokyo.  Check it out in the pic above or at www.cournteyjohnson.net.  I am pretty happy with how it looks on my wall.  
So the red machine finally hit the big 200k. I meant to take the picture below when it hit 200000 but in the midst of my 31 hour call disaster I forgot. So I took the picture at 200100 this morning. I've been thinking about what to get her for her birthday. Here's what I came up with. 1. A road trip. Cliché yes, but when I bought her, we went cross country from WV to ca. I would love to do it again. 2. Soapy headlights wash. On married with children, al used to go to a place called soapy headlights to get his car cleaned. I'm sure you can imagine what the headlights were. 3. Insurance fraud. I'm not sure what she'd be worth, but I've always wanted to be a white collar criminal for a day. 4. Get her on pimp my ride. I don't know if xzibit is still doing this, but i'd love to have a badminton net come off the side of my truck. 5. Get involved in a driveby. I'm not sure how i'd do this one, but it would leave her with an awesome tattoo. Like that orv in goonies. If anyone has any ideas send em along. I owe her...

Hackintosh upgrade

Finally have the hackintosh up and running...now using an efix dongle with my asus p5w dh deluxe mobo. Not a compatible mobo according to the efix website, but all works perfectly with the exception of time machine. With 10.5.6 is giving me a builtin network interface error...I'm just using databackup instead for now. Also got some monitor mounts on eBay, so my desk is reclaimed! A more important thing in this photo are my new kicks, kso shoes from vibramfivefingers.com. Most comfy (and strangest) shoes I've ever owned. Kind of look like gorilla feet...I highly recommend getting a pair of these. -- Post From My iPhone

Is anyone else a little creeped out and annoyed by this bobby jindal guy? He kind of looks like a reptile. The only redeeming part of this speech is his overdoing it with intonation...it's right up there with Pacino in scent of a woman and keanu in point break. -- Post From My iPhone
So I finally got unlazified and jailbroke my phone, enabling me to buy 10 dollar programs like blog press. The type that I've been eyeing but have been too cheap to buy. So maybe (and I know I've written this before) I'll post more often now. Anyway...I've been up since 345 am on the 23rd. Will be up straight till bout 11 am the 24th. It's not even midnight yet and I'm starting to mumble to myself in an undiscernable accent. Attaching a picture of the labor and delivery lounge, mainly to test the photo capabilities of blogpress but also to provide an idea of how I'm spending the evening. -- Post From My iPhone
