Friday
Since last update, I have been in a knock down drag out fight with my computer yet again. After 6 days of troubleshooting a strange "pulse" coming from the computer to my tape deck, I have emerged triumphant, but without a defniitive answer as to what the problem was. I'm going to blame it on a Windows update. In short I replaced my firewire card, all cables, uninstalled and reinstalled Avid (even a newer version) and finally had to rebuild the entire OS. They call it recovery, but it's quite the opposite. It's more like losing years of preferences, updates and software. All that is left to do is try to get my computer to acknowledge a drive and we're back in business. I would have posted about this earlier, but I have had a difficult time logging in to my blog. Again, the technological planets aren't in alignment for me.
While I was in my bunker and locked out of blogville, I found a few interesting things on the web.
Apparently, the Colbert speech has been put back on line as well as the Bush comedy sketch. If you haven't seen it, you must: COLBERT and BUSH
A mother's day card everyone should have passed along:
And a game that will make you feel good.
And this little jewel of a guy at Denny's about to drive home. Scary.
