"No Secrets Here"

Not much news to report for work this time. I am getting some live calls I have to handle on my own and I am doing pretty well with that. By next week I'll surely be handling the calls on my own just fine.

I, like everyone else, just got to see the new iMac just yesterday when it was officially unveiled to the rest of the public on the Apple's web site. And I for one really like the design and thought it looked cool. The first thing I thought was "I could make one of those".

Obviously when people want to do nothing but imitate you, you've probably done something right design-wise (and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery etc). Of course my version would have a relatively lackluster CPU and graphics capability, limited RAM and an LCD screen that can probably only go up to 640 x 480. And possibly the screen will be smaller because I don't have much money. But it is definitely "do-able". Though likely the apple logo would be replaced with either the Tux penguin or a LiteStep logo (even though I haven't used the latter in quite a while).

I'm thinking if I ever get to that project I will do so with a friend of mine I met at work and we'll do it in the form of a blog or maybe just a normal web site. We've only talked aboot it once and that was the day the images of the new iMac were released.

Politics wise the RNC convention seems to be going rather well. Of course I called the election in the past tense several months ago (before the VP was announced and immediately following the VP announcement). Keeping in mind I'm writing this before the President's speech Thursday night I think all he really has to do is be mediocre and likely he will slide into a victory. Unless the Dems cheat on the election. Don't put anything past them; they certainly seem capable of it. And I'm still waiting for the mandatory-fucking-classes so the STUPID old people vote for the right mother-fucking candidate and we don't have to spend yet more years listening to the stupid fucks whine and bitch...

G'night.
