MacBook Pro 7




The MacBook Pro has a built-in camera.

MacBook Pro: the giant slab edition. 2

Hopefully, at this time tomorrow I’ll be typing away on a new 17inch MacBook Pro. I traded in my Dual G5 about a year ago and I’ll be applying that credit to this beast.

I’m looking forward to “coming home.” I miss applications like QuickSilver and Voodoo Pad. And a real terminal. And a lot of other things.

Ozzy to win Survivor? 0

Beats me, but I hope so, he’s a cool dude.

Last night a took a disc in the teeth. I managed to hold on and not turn it over. Unfortunately, we turned it over a bunch of other times last night and got filled in, 46-28 I think. Ugly game.

Here’s a hot layout to make you feel better. Ian Brooks of the Bombing Mad Fatties in Australia.

Albert Hammond Jr 2

Albert Hammond Jr, who is one of the guitarists for The Strokes, has a solo album, “Yours To Keep.”

I really like it a lot, and certainly more than Pitchfork like it.

Wii day 10

Laura and I will attempt to pickup a Wii tomorrow.

Hope this works.

Update: Denied at FutureShop… the person right in front of me got the last one.
Still hope with Laura at Toys’ R Us.

Update 2: Laura FTW!! Picks up a Wii!!!

Update 3: Wii Sports is ridiculous amounts of fun. And PHOTOZ!!!!

Update 4: The Wii on standby uses 2 watts. Disappointing to say the least.

MacAppADay 0

There’s been a number of Mac-app focused contests/promotion sites recently.

Maczot - The oldest, I’ve bought a few apps from this site already.
MyDreamApp - The people’s contest to have your dream app built.
MacHeist - By the dudes behind MyDreamApp, solve a mystery, get some apps.
And the most recently live, MacAppADay. This is the easiest one. Go to the site every day in December and get an app. Done and done.

Kogon, Matt and I took in Cut Chemist and (part of) Lyrics Born last night at the Phoenix.

I loves me some DJing and turntablin’ but Cut Chemist is in a league of his own. I was basically in amazement all show. And that boy can put together tight grooves.

The night was only marred by some jackass shadowboxing the back of a tiny little hipster girl. Maybe shadowboxing is the 2006 version of dipping a girl’s hair in your inkwell, beats me.

I’m a 7 out of 10. 0

According to the “Answer these questions and we’ll rate your Ultimate Frisbee skill” robot, I’m a 7 / 10.

Luckily you can change it. I set my rating to 1,000,000 Sexy+++.
