    Not quite Zork... not quite a PC... not quite interesting.

    I've read that Apple's newest OS is not pronounced "Oh Ess Ex" but "Oh Ess Ten". But almost anyone I talk to calls it OS "Ex". Does anybody know what Apple is saying today?

    But that's really not nice to give the address of Knifey Wifey to Apple!

    You rock!

    Goddammit. There's this woman at my workplace. She's damn smart, funny and sexy in a geekish way and we get along more than just fine. We've gone to concerts and movies after work without making much fuss about it. Neither of us never considered those occasions as dates. Just friends going out together. Now, I really feel like asking her out for a "formal" date, but dating a co-worker is probably going to turn out as a total disaster.

    Life is hell.
