To understand me a little better here is a list of things I would like to do before I grow old and decrepid:
1First and most importantly I want to pass on my genetic code by planting my seed in the fertile earth of atleast one woman

I saw the palm tungsten t. Pretty but ridiculously expensive. I'm still steadfast that I won't be buying another piece of electronic equipment ever again. Though I sold my palm m100 today and have become subsiquently disorganised. At least I still have a television.
I have watched more hours of television than anybody in my household. It's my source of knowledge, my eye upon the world. Though I have no idea why christina aguleria has this obsession with grabbing he hair every minute. Swinging her hands all over the place like a monkey. THough it can be considered a good thing in certain circumstances. Britney featuring Madonna? wtf. Never though that'd happen but I have seen worst things happen in war torn Bagdad aka the new iraq.
Everybody you see on television is substancially rich. It does not surprice me any more. Either they are insanely rich or they are just absolutely richer than you are. Which clearly doesn't matter any how because usually it just a matter of substituting one set of problems for another. REality tv has it highs and it's lows. Head no good?

While roaming through my inbox I saw this email;
Subject: Possible interruption in website service
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2003 14:04:41 -0500Dear TechJamaica.com member,
We would like to advise you of the possibility of an interruption in the service of the website sometime later today. This possibility, although slim, exists because of a pending solar blast from the sun expected to reach Earth at about 3 p.m. EDT and its effects could last 12 to 18 hours. The solar blast should affect neither the site nor its server directly, but could affect Satellites, pagers, cell phones, electrical grids and by extension some of the telecommunications infrastructure upon which the website and the Internet on a whole are dependent.
Please visit cnn report for more information on this topic.
Thanks for your continued support of the site,
The Support Team

I found this quite funny. Considering that one hour before the world is about to end, I'm getting emails. Even with the possibility of cellphones going out of service and satellites falling from the sky. Of course I'm exaggerating it abit but it's still funny.

Sure, I love the fact that so many people read my page. What red-blooded web publisher wouldn't love 12,000 hits on their personal site? But you see, hit counts aren't what it's all about. It's about connecting.
I don't publish this thing to attract thousands of mindless surfers. I publish it out of some strange urge to let my friends (and anyone else who stumbles upon it) know what's on my mind when it comes to technology and the web. I keep doing it because occasionally a friend will send me some feedback, telling me I'm absolutely wrong (or absolutely right), and that I should get back to work (or quit my job and do this full time).

Well, I did it. I bit the bullet and purchased a 30GB Apple iPod. And...it's cool as hell. I partially paid for it by ripping all of my CDs to my computer, and then selling them. Now, all those CDs are in the plam of my hand on my iPod. Sure, the moral/legal implications are offensive, but when did I ever claim to have morals?
