DRM idiocy knows no bounds

Published: 2 January 2006
How ridiculous is this? These terms of use are from the new Coldplay CD: This CD cannot be burnt onto a CD-R or hard disk, nor can it be converted into MP3 for file sharing. This CD has been manufactured for usage in regular CD players but might not play in the following players: Some CD players [...]

gripes about MS from MS

Published: 3 January 2006
From a Microsoft Exchange partisan: There is a 0 day exploit of another Microsoft file format that makes your Windows XP system wide-open for hackers if you made some bad decisions. On top of those is still using Microsoft Internet Explorer to surf the Internet – what in the world are you thinking? How many times [...]

car stuff, grade posted

Published: 3 January 2006
I don’t know why, but I didn’t get up this morning at 10 a.m. I had my phone set to wake me up then, but I never heard it go off. Maybe it did, but since the thing was right next to my head in the bed with me, I think I’d have [...]

back on campus

Published: 8 January 2006
I’m back in the dorm again. I left Jessica’s house at maybe ten till 2, got here, and was annoyed to find that construction has screwed parking all to heck. The employee lot that’s right across the road from my dorm has the convenient entrance next to my dorm blocked off with a [...]

first day at Lexmark

Published: 9 January 2006
I just got back from having dinner with Scott. We just went to Subway and spent probably a total of twenty minutes together, but it was still nice to see him. I’ll have to corner the guy sometime when he’s not busy and I’m not working. My first day of work went well. [...]

Friday the thirteenth

Published: 13 January 2006
Wow, the week’s over; it went by very quickly. Besides work (which is still going well, by the way), I’ve gotten to hang out with the guys some. Last night I went over and found the whole group there: Scott, Todd, Todd[1], Steve, Ike, and Brent. All we did was sit [...]

soup and SQL

Published: 21 January 2006
Ahh, chicken noodle soup; I love this stuff. I had some at my aunt’s over the break and I’ve been wanting more ever since. I’m not talking about the soup with vegetables and everything else, but the classic Campbell’s chicken noodle that’s a bright yellow from all the butter. Surprisingly, the bowl [...]

I was in a classroom for a Spanish class, but I asked the professor if I could study some other subject instead. She told me I could, so I was going to work on some kind of math homework. Before I started, however, I reorganized a big pile of textbooks beside my desk. [...]

smaller pants and a sleazy guy

Published: 1 February 2006
I stopped by the mall after work today to buy some new dress clothes. It took an hour to get from Lexmark to the mall, which was ridiculous but then again it was rush hour. I received a very nice surprise in Express when I found some jeans on sale for $10, but [...]

don’t follow me

Published: 3 February 2006
I was living with a group of people in a run-down, small house out in the middle of nowhere. It was nighttime and there was some man trying to get in, we thought to hurt us. I had a gun and waited by the door with the rest of the people behind me. [...]

double dates and purses

Published: 4 February 2006
Scott was over at the dorm with Jessica and I, and he was laying on top of my bed. I was down on the floor with Jess, who was at her computer. I was trying to convince Scott to go on a double date with me, along with Ashlee and Doug. The [...]
