Second time this year:

Had vivid dream about talking to god in which god is represented as a mallard duck. Why? "You never listen to me anyway", god explains.

a lot of times

when I talk it feels like a paper airplane that has crash-landed.

hinduism is the linux of religions.

poem

her crescent smile hovered by the refrigerator

everything is illuminated

Everyone has exactly one light, she said, arching her ice-blue feet. Which they cup their hands over or hold up for people who are groping for something that got lost in the dark.

Now...I have zero interest in walking around tormenting others with my inner light.

saturday morning

Hilary curled into a tight ball on her mattress, remembering the hue of wrong wrong wrong on all the faces.

7:29 pm ubuntu linux screenshot:

Now everyone go home.

2:14 p.m.

BreezyBadger prompts simple network information. I walk unproblematically over to C&IT for this.

Thirty minutes later,C&IT magically appears in the Writing Center for the first time in history:

("Did you come here to help me?" "Actually, I was wondering if I could, um, you know, watch".)

11:50 pm

Windows XP apparently has built-in GPS beeper (comes up with the command "sudo". That is very wrong).

11:45pm on:

GRUB suffers mild stroke and "loses" innumerable big objects: namely itself, linux and Windows XP.

10:52 a.m: a tense moment

Warm boot launches Windows XP and Realplayer starts playing a song onstensibly titled "ISO-UBUNTU". Dialog box prompts me to adjust volume and bass.

9: 52 a.m. : Writing Center Opens

"It's Ubuntu day", says Sharon, propping the door open with an edge. "I am who I am because of who you all are, and, right now, we're all out of pens".

9:39 a.m.

Look! Sharon and Hilary are installing Linux Ubuntu 5.10 at the Writing Center.

We've got Linux Ubuntu 5.10 installation disks, half a pack of skittles and some white text on a black background that looks important.

Sharon and Hilary are currently:

Happy.

As the installation progresses, check back for up-to-the minute info on how Sharon and Hilary feel.

Installing wireless internet on SuSE linux 10.0

If you linked to this post from a google search, get ahold of yourself.

Instead of harming yourself and others with an ice pick, why not check out out AndrewD18's handy guide?

Note: You will need the proprietary installation CD (for Linksys), the SuSE kernel-source and your own bag of skittles.

an open letter:

Anonymous stalker:

Thank you for the asynchronous kiss. It has been a long time since I have had one of those.

learning curve

This morning OpenOffice learned to critique, not criticize.

...

Running: Linux Suse {default OS}
Installed: Slackware 10.2

ow:

my soul hurts from hating the suburbs every morning.

file conversion

Obviously, said Technologically Savvy Student, Seely-Brown and Duguid were not using linux.

Hilary paused to secretly write "switch to linux" on her memo pad:

"Yes, thank you. So you see how conversation stops when someone offers a hard-and-fast answer. Your essay works in roughly the same way: you run out of material when the research questions are strictly factual.

So be sure that your overarching question is open-ended. Now for example, can somebody please tell me: what is linux?"

The oversize snowflakes remind me of handprints searching for concrete.

whatever.

www.blackboard.com launches its open-architexture initiative.

how I talked myself into writing the proposal:

The sun chips will still be here for after.
An ant carrying muddy snow on its back.
I will hurt you if you do not write it.
You can change out of that orange shirt and the striped pants when it is written.

CSS paranoia:

Fear that the web space will display as "ectoplasm" because you failed to specify a default white background.

the horrible truth:

The brown rice things did not appear via spontaneous generation.
