I know I said I wouldn’t be posting, but i can’t resist this one. via This Modern World
This little city (pop.: 16,000) has become the first in the nation to pass an ordinance that outlaws voluntary compliance with the Patriot Act.“I call this a nonviolent, preemptive attack,” said David Meserve, the freshman City Council member who drafted the ordinance with the help of the Arcata city attorney, city manager and police chief.
This is the kind of action that allows me to continue to hold out hope for America. I love the people of America, but man do I despise the regime currently in power. America, don’t be fooled by Bush’s claims at christianity. Just because he is a christian doesn’t mean he has all or even very many of the right ideas for running the country. Enough thinking that you have to support everything the “President” does or says because your brother or sister or cousin is currently risking their life in the Middle East. Realize that hiding all of his actions behind the facade of saving America from 9/11 type events should be offensive. Don’t let this administration play the entire country for fools. Take a few minutes to research what they have done and are doing on a source other than CNN or Fox and see if you aren’t just a bit concerned. For one thing (related to this story) don’t let them turn it into “1985” by 2005. One last thing, please please please use the ballot in numbers that are uncheatable to oust this Thief in chief in the next election.
thank you for reading

I have two projects, one of which is huge, to finish by the end of this month. On top of that, I’ve just come down with a pretty nasty cold, which has me whiney with a sore throat and headache, not really wanting to eat much. I think we’ve all gotten used to the immense volume of material that Johnny contributes to this site. Put all of this together, and I think it’s a safe bet that this site will be pretty quiet for a while. Bummer too, I have a whole bunch of stuff I want to post about.
I went to Design Festa, and got an idea for a new project that I want to start (like I don’t have too many already). I guess I’ll be writing about that later though. For now it’s back to work.

I on the other hand solemnly promise to generally have nothing to say, and post anyway.

Since I did a stupidly simple howto for the iMac, i will now request a howto from a generous reader. How can i set up my machine so that it automatically mounts the Windows and Linux machines it is networked with on startup?
Your help is appreciated, I know I don’t show it sometimes, but it is. I’m sorry I took you for granted

This was a search I received on Google today, and although the person probably didn’t find what they were looking for I’ll give you a quick how-to here, and maybe someone will find it useful. My system is currently in English, and this site is not currently encoded to display japanese so I will write in romanized Japanese when Japanese is necessary, and it will probably be a little bit off. so without further ado, here is how to switch my (your) imac from Japanese to English:
1) Click the system preferences (light switch looking) icon in your dock
2) If you only have a few icons, click the light switch icon again in the new window to show all (maybe subete wo hyouji or something like that)
3) Click the blue flag icon (gengo I think)
4) locate English in the top list of languages (nihongo should be at the top now. Click and hold the mouse button when your pointer is over English, keeping the mouse button held, drag English to the top of the list.)
5) Reboot your system
6) away you go

The war isn’t even over yet, and already we are hearing about evil Syria, and their weapons of mass destruction. I don’t recall Syria surrendering to us, and agreeing to submit to U.S. disarmament demands after the gulf war. This is climbing into the increasingly unbelievable, and I truly believe that comparisons between Bush and Hitler are becoming more and more apt.
I think the real danger here is Bush and his weapons of mass distraction. If he can keep the public pumped up on patriotism then maybe they won’t notice that they work 18 hours a day and still can’t live comfortably.
It is scary when The Onion is not very much more far-fetched than the truth.
