So apparently Microsoft has decided it’s time to fix their CSS
rendering?  Is this too good to be true?  I quote from the
IE7 blog…

“Address CSS consistency problems. Our first and most important goal
with our Cascading Style Sheet support is to remove the major
inconsistencies so that web developers have a consistent set of
functionality on which they can rely.  For example, we have already
checked in the fixes to the peekaboo and guillotine bugs documented at positioniseverything.net so use of floated elements become more consistent. “

That almost makes me look forward to it’s release.  Almost.

I killed the dumbest bird in the world today.

I was sick of it’s dumbness.

It landed in the middle of the freaking road.  I stopped about a
foot in front of it.  I said.  “Hey, stupid bird,
move.”  I honked my horn a few times.  I got sick of waiting,
I could not go into another lane because cars were in them.  I
started driving forward slowly.  I felt a bump bump.  I felt
no remorse because the bird was freaking stupid and deserved to die.

the end.

current zodiac problem:  I can’t get video and audio to sync up
when it plays on it… fine on my computer…. but.. yeah.  I will
figure it out eventually i guess.  But I don’t really have time to
anymore today.

This is our last week of classes…..    graduation a week from saturday.  fun.

I’m really liking this Veda band…. 

That is all.

I got my Zodiac in the mail yesterday.  I was too occupied using
it to post anything about it.  Actually, rather, I was too
occupied trying to get it to sync with my calendar and address book on
my laptop to do that.  I did finally get it working….  i
had to download the palmos isync conduit, which it really annoys me
that that isn’t installed in OS X by default.  Come on Apple, Palm
isn’t that rare, especially not among your users.  and the file is
like a meg.  Maybe Tiger will support it by default.

Anyway, it’s really cool.  very nice screen, pretty good
sound.  It came with the crappiest ear buds I’ve ever seen, so I
certainly won’t be using them.  I stuck one in my ear and wanted
to die because it was stretching my ear out to maximum potential. 
The designer of the earbuds clearly had freakishly large ear
lobes.  Also, there was no free hot brunette with it. 
Apparently that was all just hype.  I’m a little
disappointed.   Only a little.

Tomorrow… when I wake up… and get to school… (assuming i sleep
here at matt’s apartment)…  I will have my Zodiac waiting for me
in the mailroom.  That is some fast shipping, but my tracking
thing tells me it is currently in Orlando.  Those folks at Tapwave
are good folks indeed.

I can’t wait.

So awhile back I was talking about how I was going to get an
iPod.  If you don’t know, I never did do that… because I decided
that I was going to get something else.  Something perhaps more
practical…. certainly more versatile… but.. that doesn’t mean I
won’t eventually get an ipod as well…  it just means that… I
got this first.

Anyway, yesterday I went ahead and purchased a Tapwave Zodiac.  It certainly seems to be pretty nice, and I look forward to having it in my possession.

That is all.

The more I listen to this… The more I like it….  I can’t wait
till the cd comes out…. so I can listen to it on something other then
PureVolume 😛

“you talk shit about them to me

you talk shit about me to them

they know this you have to know they do

and now you know i know too

i guess that’s what you get

for being born in the seventies

but i won’t hold it against you

if you don’t hold it against me

because i talk shit about you too

i swear i thought you knew

all the conversations

people have about you

shit that you won’t ever hear

shit man. oh, shit man.

i guess that’s what you get

for being born in the seventies

but i won’t hold it against you

if you don’t hold it against me

but i won’t hold it against you

if you don’t hold it against me

but i won’t hold it against you

if you don’t hold it against me”
