Gradually getting more intrigued by GTAIV, though that’s a terrible acronym.
Tuesday morning delivery= This American Life time.
Trying out something Cuh-ray-zee: Turning hiding off and putting the dock on the right. I like that the Desktop icons move. This ain’t bad.
Now that I’ve been turned on to sushi I want it all the time.
There is a smelly flower right in my face. Yet I don’t move.
“I don’t know what to do with my Earth bag.”
These Al Gore “WE” ads are kind of fun just to see the polar opposites thrown together. Pelosi and Gengrich?

Having dinner and a pint of West Seattle’s own Schooner Exact IPA at West 5.
Zowie! Amazon has a neat little mobile site. Impulse buys ahoy!
Contemplating a job @ the WS Cupcake Royale.
