Had to change the batteries on the cordless mouse today, because the stupid interruptive wire drove me crazy. Now I got stupid disposable batteries to replace instead!
Dante never conceived of this level of angst.

Exactly 13, no more, no less. Descartesian, no? The bet?
I have a huge problem today.
Is it that I forgot what I was going to complain about? No. That goes in the retired life thread.
But I managed to solve one problem.
I knoticed the 'view original message' line down below 'post this reply.'
That solves a number of problems I won't need to insert here.
We are so fortunate to live in the First World and be able to lampoon shtuff with out some big-ass polizei coming in saying, "Up Against the Wall, Mofo."
My problem is, "Why didn't someone tell me that the "IT" wasn't "all that?."
That IT was only some of that.
I'm speaking of the venerable* Wes n' Wanda's IT CLUB in El Cerrito. I met Chuck Pratt there one night and solved all the world's problems. I never drank with him again. Late '73.
I told Pratt IT wasn't "all that" and he agreed it was a big problem. I forgot his solution.
*Read 'dive' or 'urban roadhouse.' On San Pablo, 123.
Thirteen lines, exactly. No problem.

Cry me a river on the TV issue brah. Hah, you think you have it bad? Sh#t, I pressed the wrong button on the powerwand and now can't get the damned thing on. AND THE wife is in Hawaii ! Which means that until she gets home to figure it out I have to go upstairs and the TV up there is only 32", doesn't have HD and only gets about 100 cable channels instead of the 900 plus the big one gets.
It's tough man, damned tough.

I have so much Metalocalypse recorded, they're starting to get deleted because of my Grandma's Boyfriend's damn airplane shows over recording them.

I want to lodge a protest. Why did the ALDS ballgames stop recording? I did not see the end of 2 ballgames in the playoffs!!! For a woman who shares the same birthday as Derek Jeter, this is a catastrope. Must I stay at home to watch them in real time? SHall I take time off from my job to race home to see the game? Must I stop climbing so that I see the game in real time?
Oh - maybe I need to extend the recording option on the DVR to stop later........Stop Rant. Start New Rant.
Still protesting because I can't record The Voice, Dancing with the Stars and the Playoffs simultaeously. How can one choose between baseball, watching the frenchman exude charisma in motion, and see hopefulls singing their hearts out?

That is what you get for being kind to over-worked, drunk YCA guys.
Funny stuff.

I thank some guy at some company for keeping the Roman Numerology accurate.
He's saved us all a lot of work.
Just too much old school shizz still on the MK market.
And now I see this retro-numbering craze. Geez.
MK iv vs. MK IV vs. Mk IV vs. Ivy Line vs. Mk iv vs (Mk I, II, & III) fighting in a cage match title fight like you've never before seen. In Fresno. This Sunday.
And no tickets... Can anybody help?

"...the only problem i am having is having to stop every 15 minutes to clean the resin off my fingers and scissors..."--manzanita man
Probably not really just a first world problem.
Is Mariposa a third world county?
Not by the strict definition.
I apologize, butterlies.

I really hate all the time and trouble it takes to re-balance my portfolio.
I hate having to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of taxable versus non-taxable bond funds.
I hate having to keep a four-figure balance in my checking account in order to collect interest.
I hate waiting for my woman to decide which Caribbean island we are going to this year.
I hate having young women throw themselves at me for my money.
