My dial up connection cuts out after 12 hours and sometimes connects at 28.8 when I first try to connect to the internet. I know the people at UC-Berkeley are behind it with that vile program they call BOINC. If they would have just left well enough alone and kept Classic, none of this would have happened. All was fine in the world until BOINC came out. ;)

Wine

My coffee pot took entirely too long to brew 10 cups this morning!!!
I blame it on the rain, Mars being too close, and those people at the
Boston Operators In North Carolina club and thier diabolical scheme to deny all pleasure to dedicated coffee drinkers world-wide!!!

/Wine
It is a sad sad day when someone takes your spoon away from you...

I'm blaming Berkeley for everytime I eat any food, I feel like this

It is for sure the result of looking at the BOINC manager while my WU's are crunching!

Damn you, Seti BOINC!!!

You bastards, Berkeley!!!


And, BTW, it's Seti BOINC's fault that that particular Chanel lipstick, I had decided to buy today was sold out!

Crap that Breaks pisses me off.

Since being up in michigan:

1) my coffee pot broke, the same day my laptop crashed. Bought new Bunn, reloaded OS

2) Laptop crashes again, reload OS and buy new laptop.

3) TV dies, buy new tv

4) On my second of 22 bags of Quikrete, my mixer died (gears shot), and I had to mix it by the old Wheelbarrow and Hoe method.



OH yeah, and shitty service ticks me off too.

I called the power company on Thursday to see if someone could swing by on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday and swing the lines from the old pole to the new pole (18" away). Once I finally got through 2 (two) seperate electronic menus, the girl says "I just submit the request, a "Power Specialist" (whatever that is, and I'm an electrician and don't know) will be contacting you within 5 business days to schedule a survey". Schedule a survey????? Just bring the damn truck and move the damn line 18 inches. Cripe.

They are melting that glacier in Greenland already, but it doesn't want to melt any faster with all them Greenpeace people on top of it. Else you'd have had your own swimming pool already. ;)

Any one else here who wants their water turned into whine?

Can I still walk on it afterwards?
Or has BOINC broken that possibility as well?
