One of the songs I loved playing while DJ’ing the Saturday shift @ WVUM.
I thought I was the only person to hold his chopsticks that way.

When I was holed up at my Mom’s, and when MTV2 was just about to go lame, I caught this video. Loved the groove. Loved the song. Never remembered who it was. I asked the internets on the imd message board to identify the song by describing what I could recall of the video. They nailed it within a day: Stardust’s Music Sounds Better With You. I’d like to share it with you.

I wrote about my gripes of Windows v OS X yesterday. It's great and all
for the operating system to conform to your way of working and/or
expectations, but what happens when applications start going their own
way? Adobe seems to be the main culprit at making up new UI schemes,
because of trying to bridge their applications to two OS platforms. In
making their lives at porting easy, they've made some users unhappy.
I've purposely avoid Microsoft applications on my OS X machines. After
looking at the screen captures at today's link, I'll do the same with
Adobe. Plus, it's another reason to hate Flash. Is that thing dead
yet?http://adobegripes.tumblr.com/
I must apologize as to how late this post on Gran Torino has been. It’s not like I didn’t know what to say, and it’s not like I forgot. I’ve just not gotten around to writing up my thoughts on this film. Yet, I’ve seen another movie since then, and my queue of movie reviews must be serviced, so here comes the Gran Torino review as seen from a few weeks back.
Clint Eastwood takes his Dirty Harry character to its end: living in the run down neighborhood surrounded by dirty foreigners. He just hates everyone. How do you know? He says it constantly. “Get off my lawn!” His catchphrase in this movie. It’s just like Grandpa Simpson.
Eastwood finally learns to like some of the dirty foreigners when he helps the Hmong family avoid a bunch of Hmong roughnecks. He watches out for the kid and the sister before he helps them finally be free of their problem.
They couldn’t act. Neither could Eastwood. It wasn’t a great movie. It was serviceable. I don’t ever want to see it again though.
2 of 5 stars.
Bi-partisanship brought us the Iraq war which you yourself had voted
against. Why do you need the loser's opinion on anything you do? Cut
it out and just get things done the way you want. You did win didn't
you?http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/26/us/politics/26talkshow.html?partner=pe

This article about Windows taskbar and the OS X dock goes into some of the reasons I hate working on a PC. It has mainly to do with Multiple Document Interface (MDI).
I’m clumsy it expressing my hatred for Windows implementation, so read today’s link and appreciate the Mac paradigm. It also goes along way into understanding why your mom who uses a Mac keeps leaving applications running instead of quitting out of them.
