First, a repeat of something from some time ago. If you’re a Mac user and running OS-X you may find the random need to run an OS-9 application. If you’re running Intel architecture instead of PPC architecture that is, technically, not possible (or PPC with an OS greater than 10.4). However, it can be done […]
First, I spent nearly an hour voting on the Zagat airline survey. Then, the survey crashed eating all my votes. I’m really, really, really pissed off. I won’t do it again. I had given Virgin Atlantic top marks with DL and CO next, followed by Dragonair, BA, AC, AF, Air China, China Southern, with AA […]
Let’s start with some social injustice commentary. A Louisiana judge recently refused to issue a marriage license to a couple because one was black and one was white. His claim was the children would suffer because they were bi-racial, and he claims he’s turned couples down for this before. There was quite an outcry as […]
I wish this cough would go away. It makes me hurt. Dry, hacky, and makes my stomach and back muscles hurt. Maury shared this commercial with me. It will never even be considered to air in the US. The site’s in French, but the ad is in English, though you don’t have to speak a […]
OK, it’s 452am as I start this post, because beforehand I checked my credit card receipts against my statements, made a post over at the Panthers Hockey Message Boards, filed my medical receipts for the week, had a drink of water (twice 4x), turned on the TV looking for something and found the last […]
First, a quick health update. My fever is finally gone after maxing out at a little over 103. Not the highest I’ve ever had, but still very unpleasant. That means I am not contagious anymore. However, you are contagious before you know you have it. If you were in contact with me Sunday or Monday, […]
Anyone want it? I don’t. I took my first sick day from work in years. I have a fever (102 and every single symptom on the list. I spent most of the day in bed and I hurt like hell. The headache is the worst, and every single drug I’ve tried as failed to stop […]
As you may have possibly gathered from the subject line, I’m sick. It started last night after 8pm when I developed a dry, hacking cough. Because there was no good reason for it, and I felt otherwise fine, I assume it wasn’t a big deal and just an irritated throat. I took some Hydromet before […]
First up, mom had sent me this URL which I just now got around to checking. It’s going to take you awhile to type everything in and you better have the label because you need proper spellings and dosages. However, what’s cool about it is that it compares any known interactions, what other users report, […]
First up, an update on the Nucor saga. Next week our State Representative is coming to have meeting with me at our office to see what we’re about, why our industry is upset, and then to decide how involved he may get. I’m working on a presentation — I’m missing that laptop right now, let […]
