15. October, 2002 - busy day ahead

A busy day ahead of me today. Client meetings, neighborhood meetings, finally restocking the foodstuffs after my vacation. All lie in my future, and all need to happen before I get to sleep again. Good thing I woke up before 6am to get started, eh? I kinda wish it were closer to Christmas so Target would be open earlier for my shopping convenience, but that would bring a whole new set of problems to deal with. As it is, I find myself sitting awake, but stuck for a while, since none of the places I need to go are open yet.

TiVo, We Hardly Knew Ye says Sorry fans, but it's destined for the ash heap of history. He might have a point, but I still really dig my TiVo, and am thinking about getting a Series 2, as much for the increased capacity as for a backup so I could start hacking my original one without worrying so much.
Welcome to Mac OS X, Indeed. Hopefully this wasn't a real conversation, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was.... [some guy]
Google Needs People, even though they're touting that their news service doesn't use humans. It still does, in the form of people finding stories and linking to them. They just don't get paid (except in the form of showing up higher in the rankings) by google. [some guy]
Hey, speaking of search engines, I'm number 162 in the Yahoo! Search Results for assholes. Woo! Sometimes I really like that last 10 referrers thing.
