I'm glad you're back around.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I have about 6600 songs on my 40 GB iPod. I rip everything to mp3, and I'm not happy with the sound quality at 128 kbps so I use VBR that averages about 195 kbps. I think I'll be able to fit a little more than 7000 songs on it (not the 10,000 that Apple says, because of the higher bitrate).
The iPod photo has a 60 GB drive. Rumor has it that we'll see an 80 GB iPod this year.

Trust my rage
Maria - I lied earlier. I still have a few dozen CDs that I haven't put on the iPod yet because I rarely listen to them. However, as I have been ripping them, I've been putting on only the songs I actually would listen to in the future. I've got a bunch of music where I bought the entire CD because it was the only way to get the one song I liked.

yep. This is me. There are albums where I only rip one song in.

I just get fed-up with agressive panhandlers who demand that I stop and talk to them. Also don't like the panhandlers who threaten to kill me because I didn't give them money.
I had a drunken/inarticulate guy shamble up to me at Overton Square last night asking if I could help him out with a meal. I briefly flirted with the idea of handing him the half-full Doritos bag from my car, but I'm pretty sure it would have been littering the street before I made it to the end of the block.
There was a day back in the fall when I got hit up by panhandlers SIX TIMES in an afternoon, including once in line at the checkout stand in a grocery store. I just barely avoided giving that last one a lecture about him having working limbs that could lift stuff, dig ditches, etc.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

At least tell me I got a cute MacBeth.
In the midst of all the other conversation, this comment made me wonder what an iMacBeth would look like.
