15:05 Defense has been getting bitten by big plays and stupid penalties all game. We need our starting corners back. #
15:13 Haynesworth is down. There's a chance... #
15:52 Saints are now 12-0 in a miracle overtime finish! #

14:31 Great. Comcrap's buying NBC. First the Sandvine controversy, now this? Now where am I going to turn to see a bunch of talking heads? #
14:34 In personal news, I'm aiming for another quit in a week. Here's hoping this one lasts more than 11 days. #

13:06 Ooooh, an update of X in the repos. $5 says they haven't fixed the ATI memory leak yet. #

21:25 Arkansas in lead 30-27. We need only a field goal. We only needed a field goal last week, too... #
21:30 ...Here we go again. #
21:32 I don't believe it. LSU's doing the smart thing. Shock. #
21:47 Wide right, LSU wins in OT! Despite this, I'm not about to stop calling for Miles's job. One win doesn't erase the worst call in history. #

18:21 Time for LSU to fire Les Miles. Don't do it at the end of the year, don't do it tomorrow, do it NOW. Who the hell clocks it with 1 sec left? #

14:59 Looks like the hurricane's a tropical storm now and it's still forecast to go to the east. Watch yourselves, Mobile! #
15:00 Also, five days without cigs. I think. #

12:07 Xorg can sometimes be a memory-leaking piece of garbage. #
18:09 8-0! #
18:48 Oh wait, there's a hurricane coming. Better stock up. On the cheap, that means a case of ramen and some cans of knockoff Chef. #
22:42 Make it a six-pack of ramen. #

12:58 Last cigarette... again. Quit try #14, GO! #
13:20 First it was "activist judges," now it's "out of control legislatures." Religion needs to stay out of law. </politics> #
13:21 Don't worry, that won't be a regular thing... the preceding just annoyed me so much! #

00:07 Decided to play with the Kubuntu 9.10 LiveCD i downloaded. Let's see if it can pry me away from Xfce this time... #
00:11 First knock - having to invoke X manually. #
00:17 Everything's so smooth once it starts, though. Got to remember to account for being on the LiveCD, not an installed system. #
00:24 No sound. Don't know whether to blame that on the LiveCD, or a regression. #
00:26 Being able to Twitter from the desktop is a bonus. Yay Plasma! #
00:40 I'm a CLI junkie. Konsole always seems too big, and this release doesn't change that any. Though I'm sure a diff control theme would help. #
00:42 What this shows me is that giving the full Kubuntu desktop package on my live install is worth a shot. Back to the regular install. #
01:25 Message to Ubuntu devs: PULSEAUDIO IS STILL BROKEN. #

14:20 Support ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala, add a #twibbon to your avatar now! - bit.ly/4EXmo4 #
14:22 After an internet outage and a panic attack, it's time to finish that bloody upgrade. $Deity, the repos are being hammered. #
23:32 Upgrade went smoothly. Connection's still spotty. Story of my life. #

13:19 Time to upgrade my HP to Ubuntu 9.10. What I'm happier about is that 10.04 will indeed be LTS. Means my Dell will be upgraded in 6 months. #
14:24 Servers must be hammered. I started the Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade almost an hour ago and it's nowhere near done downloading, much less installing. #
14:25 Not complaining, though. That's being saved for after the upgrade. :P #

21:30 Am I the only one getting sick of hearing about Jacko's death on the news? He's dead, it's homicide, so what? More important stuff going on. #
