Crud

It seems as though the fates are against me. Every time one of my favorite bands goes on tour in my state and esspecially when the place is near to me somthing alwase happens so that I cant go see them. It's like I'm cursed to not be able to see them live.

Well life still goes on. Got to shave with my stright razor today, it's alot of fun once you figure out how not to cut you jugular open. It's kinda like scrapeing rust off of somthing, you take little swipes untill the hairs are cut down to the skin. And you cant have the blade at too high or low of an angle. Too high wouldcause you to rip the hairs out and too low would cause you to have too re-apply your neck to your shoulders with super glue. :P

Incidentally this is my 84th post. Man I can't belive that this blog survived two weeks let alone 6 months. That's half a year!

Setting Up

Here's the moment you've all been waiting for: MY FIRST POST!!!!! Huh? Oh oh OH! MY FIRST POST ON MY NEW COMPUTER!!!!!!!!!

Yes indeed, here it sits before me in all its 20", white, all-in-one, Macintosh glory. I'd put up a picture but the camera is built into the top of the screen so it'd be kinda hard.... I'd need a mirror or somthing.

I've been spending the last few days setting it up and customiseing all the chat programs, web browser, media viewers, and it's been doing a superb job of impressing me.

Oh wich reminds me I need to apply for my printer rebate. So long for now.

If the heat dont kill ya..............

Bah, you Americans are heat wimps! :P

But then again us island people are cold wimps so I guess it averages out. I'm sitting here freezing my legs off because the only free outlet at my granparents house is in the basment and I'm too tired to get dressed up just to use the computer.

Life is boring here. And when life is boring the last thing you want is a house full of clocks that all tick at slightly different intervals. Theres like a constant techno beat in the house. It's like TICK-a-lick-TOC-tick, sooooo anoying.

Oh well. I graduate next saturday. Everyone that reads this blog is invited! If you cant come please send your thank you note written on a fifty dollar bill and you'll be excused.

Pictures of the razor

Ok since I dont have any other material to really write about tonight I'll just post two picts of my razor and avoid all punctuation effectively creating a very long run-on sentence.












Ok there are the blade and the whole razor, I do use it on the parts of my face I shave and am thinking about taking off my beard and mustach just for the fun of shaving with it.

The razor and the box are not from the same companey though wich kinda takes away from the value of selling it as an antique with origional box. Oh well, I got what I wanted never the less, a real razor at a good price.

Got one!

A while ago I posed about my intrest in aquireing and learning to use a straight razor. Well today I find myself the proud owner of a vintage peice. It needs to be cleaned up and strilized but thats no problem. Got it at a local antique store for a very resonable 12 bucks. I'll post some picts latter maby if I have the time.

Customer support.

Wow! I actually had a positive experience with customer support just now!

I was looking at the computers I was thinking of getting on the apple website and it sent me like an in window pop up that asked if I would like to talk to a live representative. So I figured it would be nice to consult a person about what computer to get. And it was a real person belive it or not.

So the final Tech Specs for my computer:

  • 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
  • 250GB Serial ATA drive
  • ATI Radeon X1600/256MB VRAM
  • SuperDrive 8x (DVD+R DL/DVD+RW/CD-RW)
  • Keyboard & Mighty Mouse + Mac OS X - U.S. English
  • Accessory kit
  • AppleCare Protection Plan for iMac - Auto-enroll
  • 20-inch widescreen LCD
  • 2GHz Intel Core Duo
  • AirPort Extreme
  • Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR
I will be ordering it probably by the end of the week.
