Stupid warning labels.

So Luke and I were at Fry’s yesterday (in the prelude to last night’s computer madness) and one of the things I was looking at was a new set of computer speakers, for use on my old tv in the office, so we can at least get stereo. Anyway, one of the sets of speakers came in a blister pack about 12 inches tall, with both speakers clearly visible. On the packaging was text and pictures showing the speakers in use with a stereo “Use with your stereo!” and with a computer “Use with your PC!” and underneath that was the following text:

“PC not included.”

Ugh and other randomness

You can tell what kind of day it’s going to be by how many of the new emails you get in the morning get marked “to do”.

Today was 6, which is on the high side for me.

I got my Game Boy Advance in the mail… and probably won’t be able to play it for a few days.

I was up until 2:30am last night moving my Linux machine to the new place, now that we have working DSL (yay). Silly me, I tried to upgrade it at the same time, which created all sorts of lovely problems and I ended up going back to the old motherboard. So yes, it’s still a Pentium MMX 166. At least now it has more memory and more disk space… but damn, it’s slow.

I think the constant exposure to high levels of dust is giving me allergies or something… go figure. I need to finish moving.
