Obie Trice - Second Rounds On Me 29Jul06 | 0

Going to make a quick review of the record here since I made the same one on my MOG just now.

If you got tired of Eminem and the whole 50 Cent thing after about 5 minutes, that’d be perfectly understandable. 50 got real old after he started doin’ the same shit that he was makin’ diss records towards Ja Rule about, but that’s a whole different post.

Mafia’s like to threaten people 15Jul06 | 0

Talk about a crazy story.

A yakuza gang has asked the local education board not to show schoolchildren an anti-gang video local police are producing for fear it will lead to discrimination of gangsters’ children, it was learned Saturday.

Who woulda thunk that the Japanese mafia was so out there with it with their “letter writing”. Next thing you know there’s going to be a huge mafia war between the Italian and Japanese mafia’s in Australia ala The Simpsons. I suppose jark will be keeping up with this since this is where I saw the story.

ZOE! 14Jul06 | 0

OMG ZOE’S HERE! PICS COMING LATER!

She came in at 5 lbs. 6 oz. and 18½ inches at 3:46 am this morning.

First of many… It’s grainy cuz I took it with my cell, I tried to use iPhoto to make it look better. Here’s the result.

And now here’s a video (it’s in .3gp format so you’ll need Quicktime or VLC or something)!

Pharrell, please stop 13Jul06 | 0

Pharrell WilliamsOkay, shortest rant EVER.

Someone please explain to me why he’s still trying to come out with a “solo” album? Sure his annoying way of “singing” was kinda decent on those 2 Snoop tracks, but every subsequent project his been on has sucked, be it the beat or that shrill craptacular singing.

Whoever’ in the industry and close to him, for the love of all that is holy, get him to stop! PLEASE!

That is all.

Yahoo & MSN finally unified 13Jul06 | 0

Yahoo, Microsoft tie message knot

Users of the Yahoo and Microsoft instant messaging networks can now contact each other directly.

Welp I guess it’s finally happening. The IM’s are becoming unified, at least now I won’t have to use that eye sore Yahoo! Messenger. Not sure if either has actually released a version that works yet. I did however see Yahoo! Messenger mention it when I went to download it recently (gotta see the webcams and what not, and Adium won’t let me do that). Hopefully this merger won’t bring more spam bots to MSN.[tags]Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, MSN, Yahoo, Microsoft, messenger[/tags]

Headbutt heard around the world 11Jul06 | 0

Well I don’t watch/follow soccer at all, but this whole Zidane thing is all over the place. Plus I’ve got to respect a guy who seemingly head butts a guy for no reason. :P
Apparently a lot of people have been looking into what was said, and here’s a blog with info on what was said. So if the lip reading really tells what was said to him, I would’ve let him get away with kicking the guy squarely in the nuts too.[tags]World Cup, Zidane, soccer[/tags]

I know… I know… 09Jul06 | 0

I know I promised to be more active and what, and I guess I kinda sorta lied about that, seeing as how I made like 5 or so posts and let it drop off again.

I honestly didn’t do it on purpose, I just get busy (usually by finding new things to mess up) and don’t post. And I end up making one of these crappy uninteresting posts.

But I’ll briefly tell you what I’ve been up to.

I’ve basically been playing around with my laptop, putting it through hell and back. First by installing Vista, just because it’s about time Windows had some features I could “Ooo” and “Ahhh” about. Screw themes that make it just look pretty, I wanted to look pretty and do cool stuff. So yeah Vista delivered on that I suppose. Is it a well worth upgrade from XP? Nah not really, not if you’re looking for it to do and be better at things under the hood. But the look and feel — I dig it, some may not, and well that’s your choice in life.

Other then installing Vista (makes my laptop burn like it’s in hell, or maybe it always did that and I didn’t notice), I took the plunge to install OS X, Vista’s inspiration. Didn’t take long, considering there are guides for it everywhere, and a website/forum dedicated to getting you to the point where you have a usable “Hackintosh”. I’m up and running and it just reaffirms that I really want a MBP, or hell even a MB would be nice. But definitely something to dual boot (gotta have games).

Stability wise, it’s fine I suppose, only gripe I have is that that display won’t go into sleep mode, so that leaves the lappy working all day/night. I guess I have another gripe in that I can’t use Wi-Fi (no driver for the card I have), but other then those 2 things it’s great. Runs fast and everything. And I definitely love the software you true Mac users get (Shoebox, ecto (even those there’s one for Windows, but it’s probably not as pretty), iPhoto to name a few).

So all in all, I’ll just be bumming around Vista and OS X for awhile I suppose, especially since I made the mistake of wiping the partition that restores Dell’s to their manufacturer defaults (software and what not). But that’s a non-issue, I can always get XP back.

One thing I would like to know though is, what keys do Mac users use for Home and End!? Lil’ help here?

EDIT: Nevermind I guess, I think FF just don’t want me to use them, with Adium they work fine…[tags]OS X, Macintosh, Apple, Windows, Vista, Microsoft, bored[/tags]
