Pacific Bell is dead.
Nevada Bell is gone.
Southwestern Bell is kaput.
Ameritech is no more.
and now... AT&T is but a memory.

(Doesn't this sound familiar?)

All heil Ma Bell, err, I mean SBC!

"It's money. So use it."

<j0no> Are they trying to replace the American one dollar bill with that coin, or what? Because they seem to be doing a really bad job of it, if that's the case.
<fo0bar> I think they gave up long ago, considering the golden dollar was introduced in the late 90s
<j0no> ok
<fo0bar> and I've personally seen about 3 total
<j0no> because like, that site seems to be saying "It's money, you fuckholes!"

Somehow, the prospect of seeing Paul McCartney's nipple this year isn't as appealing.

I used TheDRAW (an ANSI editor) today.

I used it because today I switched my laptop's root partition over to dm-crypt encryption, and wanted to have a pretty/useful introduction before the password is asked for in the initrd. ANSI colors to the rescue!

The odd thing is, 20 minutes after I downloaded and started playing with TheDRAW, there was a slashdot article that mentioned ANSI art.

Back to the usual:

OMG! Today I totally got an A on the big test!

I'm so fat. I shouldn't have had that piece of toast. From now, on, it's celery only!

I LOVE TINKERBELL!!!!!!!11one1

My head really hurts. It feels like I have a massive hangover, but I haven't been drinking.
