So I picked up my machine about two hours ago; they filthied up the screen with their messy fingerprints but the machine is rather fast now. Fast, fast, fast, fast. And cooler, too.
They switched out the logic board, so I got a new copy of the install DVDs. Hooray! Free software!
In other news, when I was walking back I saw Pouya stuffing a small child into a wastepaper basket. I was very saddened by this.
I was laughing to keep from weeping. The baseball bat was for Pouya, but I discovered all too late that his hideous flesh cannot be penetrated by even the hardiest wooden devices.
I did see something! I'm telling the po-lice! And after they're done catching jaywalkers and people speeding and waiting around and generally not doing their jobs they'll get to you!!! EVENTUALLY!!! WHEN IT SUITS THEM!!! BUT NOT BEFORE!!!
[grin]
Think that's probably a little too Calgary specific?
Edit: Happy Birthday. I'll arrange for Ralph Klein to show up at your door dressed like a piñata complete with bats.
