Because In 2008, Why Should People Have To Use Common Sense?

The Weather is Broken!

The weather is unpredictable. I know, I’m not shocking anyone. But here, I’ve happened to notice that over the past three days, it went from dreary and rainy, to hot and humid, to chilly (60 F in July, in south Louisiana: the weather is broken), and nice today.

What does it all mean? It means my head is confused. Yesterday I had a headache (just like today and the day before), and I hadn’t even visited MySpace that day. Seriously, MySpace gives me a headache. And I’ve been feeling sick. However, I persevere and still do things while I’m sick, only because it’s summer. During the summer, if my head is split open, I’m fine and going down to Starbucks. From August to May, if a piece of dust hits my head hard, I’ve got to go home, rest for three days, and file a claim with my insurance. It’s “the weather”, I like to say.

Wait, was this about weather? I forget.

Well Maybe Now I’ll Go Green (A Little If I Have To)

openSUSE 11.0 is only minutes away now, so I wanted to give the entire openSUSE project a round of applause and congrats. This is gonna be an awesome release, and I hope to be using it soon ;-). (Note to Novell: that means ship my pre-ordered boxed edition soon.)

Returning Myself

I’ve been gone since last Tuesday for a trip to Florida. And now I’ve returned. And I’m swamped with all sorts of emails, info, podcasts, work, etc. I’ve read most of my email, both those directed at me and those from the many mailinglists.

What happened while I was gone? Ron Paul ended his presidential campaign and started another one; Banshee 1.0 was released; and Tim Russert died. God, what will happen on my next trip?

And as you may also be aware, openSUSE 11.0 is coming this Thursday. I’ve already ordered the boxed edition, so hopefully those are going out soon.
