Now with 2x the readership! (Read: we now have 2 people reading us up from 1)
You know, I think I’m starting to lose touch with my ‘net friends. Or some of them, at least. It’s kinda sad.
I’ve always been bad at getting and keeping friendships in real life- the few I currently have were probably either achieved through sheer luck, or someone up above pities me. 
And now, I think the same is starting to affect my friendships on the net. Ugh. When will it ever end?
Yay! So, I decided to start making a column. Yes, a column! I’ll write this once a week and it’ll be like the only guaranteed thing to be up at any given time. Tuesdays, check out the new The Daily Grind. 
Here we go. Continue reading ‘The Daily Grind’
Yeah. I kinda messed up a bit. I didn’t go to Orangeburg. I went to Queensbury. Sorry for the mixup.
So, HVVFA (Hudson Valley Volunteer Firefighters Association) convention 2006 was FUN! Damn awesome. Parade awards, you may be asking? Marlboro got 1st place in their category (20-26 people, blouse) and their colorguard got a 2nd place overall! Hell yeah!
Ossining got best overall this year, which my mom and I thought was a bit odd, cause when we saw them they looked like shit. o.O Oh well, who knows.
What’s even worse, someone sabotaged Marlboro’s truck. Someone (prolly who was jealous of years before) threw a whole bunch of dirt in all the compartments of the apparatus we brought with us to the parade. That sucked.
So, yeah. I’m back! Yay!
In Santa Monica in the winter time
The lazy streets so undemanding
I walk into the crowd
In santa monica you get your coffee from
The coolest places on the promenade
Bhere people dress just so
Beauty so unavoidable everywhere you turn
It’s there I sit and wonder what am I doing here
But on the telephone line I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn’t know the difference
Or would you
In Santa Monica all the people got modern names
Like Jake or Mandy
And modern bodies too
In Santa Monica on the boulevard
You’ll have to dodge those in line skaters
Or they’ll knock you down
I never felt so lonely
Never felt so out of place
I never wanted something more than this
But on the telephone line I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I could be a super model or Norman Mailer
And you wouldn’t know the difference
On the telephone line I am any height
I am any age I want to be
I could be a caped crusader or space invader
And you wouldn’t know the difference
Or would you
Okay. I just read this over at Ars technica. (Thank you, StumbleUpon, you rule.) Anyways. They’ve seemed to find the reason that the 2006-01-10 iPod Updater broked the 4G iPods!
Somehow, it unseated the drive cables. 
So, it says that if you open up your iPod and get the drive cables a bit more snug, it’ll start working again. I am DEFINATELY going to try this tonight and so maybe I will not have to buy a new one! Then I can save more of my money and maybe get a laptop that’s maybe a bit more expensive That would totally rule.
YES.
Update: Didn’t get to try it yesterday. I’ll definately try it tonight, though.
Also, I sent the article (from MacGeekery) to TUAW in their tips thing, and they posted it on their site. They even have my name at the bottom. Sweet. XD
Update 2: It worked. :DDDDDDD
Hi. If you’re reading this, that means you’ve found my blog. It’s a nice little thing.
Tell your friends about it. If I can get more people to come here, then I’ll be pressured to start updating it more, and then it’ll be really really good. Please. Just do it.
Pleeeeeeease.
