Breathalizer test

OK, so my brother and I were in Brookstone looking for gifts for our mother. We found a Breathalizer test and I used it. I was drinking the night before - up until 3:30am. I got home, went to bed, met my brother at 11am. We were in the Brookstone store at 1pm and I saw a hand held Breathalizer test. So I decided to see how much it could still detect the alcohol from my breath after about 9 hours after I drank. The reading was:

0.05

Technically, it would have been illegal for me to drive a car with that much alcohol in my system...even though it was 9 hours after the fact. Jeez...

Rubik's Cube

I am confident I can complete the Rubik's cube in 10-12 minutes now. I was practicing all weekend and I was out shopping with my brother. I bought this really cute keychain digital camera for $16 at the Virgin Megstore. I also saw a kickass Freddy Krueger t-shirt that I wanted to get but they didn't have sizes in small. I could wear a medium...but I think those shirts were made for men. Sucks because I can't wear those types of shirts anymore because I have "curves" now. I hate curves...I want a Freddy Krueger t-shirt!!!! I love Freddy. ;-) I think it would be cool if Freddy got a wife that was just equally evil as he was. They would have sadistic children. Wait...that's Chucky...eww...

I had an audition today at NYU. It was fun. I don't know if I got the part...but eh...I needed something to do during the weekends. I'm sitting around Saturday and Sunday with nothing to do. Blah blah blah blah...

Ethan Hawke and 2 Bikini women down 5th Avenue

So, I'm doing a run to the deli for some Office Crafty and what do I see? I pass Ethan Hawke on 5th Avenue and then afterwards, I see 2 bikini clad women advertising Mexico and Cancun. Only in New York as most people would say. There was also a crowd of people taking pictures of these bikini women. I'll bet that Ethan was thinking people are more interested in them than a celebrity walking down 5th. He looked shaggy (as usual...I saw him on 34th street and 8th Avenue once after a show he did near there). He actually looked like a chimney sweeper from London...looked very Dick Van Dyke - ish from Mary Poppins.

That is a pretty much all I have had to observe today.

STUPID ROAD TEST

What sort of dumbass rule is it that your 5 hour certificate has an expiration date of 1 year? And why don't people log the numbers of these certificates into a computer database so that when you schedule for a road test, people can either tell you that your certificate is expired before you even go to take the stupid fucking exam??? I can't fucking believe this!

I spent $73 to go to Hudson, NY using Amtrak and only to be told that I'm being denied of the exam because the damned certificate has expired.

What sort of stupid 5 hour class when you just sit there watching 3 videos about not driving under the influence? Why does it last for 1 year? If the DMV thinks that we will forget that driving under the influence is a big no-no, why issue a fucking license in the first place? I can't fucking believe this!

We called the DMV, scheduled the road test, and was given the thumbs up. What the DMV failed to tell us that the 5 hour certificate only lasts for 1 year and they don't record each certificate schools issue. It's soo stupid...I'm furious right now.

I deserve a driver's license. I have worked soo hard for it. Spent lots of $$$ towards the lessons and I get this bullshit? No fucking way.

MACS SUCK

OK, so a few weeks ago I got an email with a Word attachment that had the virus W97M.Thus.A. It came from a Mac. It got me thinking...wait a minute...I thought Macs don't have viruses? Turns out, they are hosts. They carry around viruses and don't they even know it. They spread it to other computers in the form of a Word document. Carriers...and thus it falls onto the PC users to fix this problem. And they blame us for viruses. They carry them and spread them around and we have to follow them like mothers cleaning up their shit. Half the people who own macs don't even use a virus scanner because they think if it doesn't hurt them it doesn't matter. But with the internet world of today, files are being sent to and from a Mac with a virus on them and we get punished because they don't think to install a virus scanner to make sure they aren't spreading anything? Either they are really dumb or selfish.

So...me being like "what? Macs have a virus? Uh...I use an antivirus for my PC...have you looked into that lately?" In the end, I told this person to go to Tekserve...they're Mac's doctors. And the Mac doctor tells this person that they don't know how to clean it up. Great right? So not even a doctor knows how to fix this. But apparently this only hurts PCs...so who the fuck cares right?

There's a video by the way on Google Video. Why Macs Suck

In today's age...a PC can be just as good as a Mac...and in some cases...even more so. Why spend all that money when you can get soo much more for less on a PC and have less compatability issues? I mean more programs are made for PCs...more games are made for PCs...hell if you like Macs soo much, you can even get Mac programs for PCs. iTunes, Quicktime, Bonjour...

Here is a Shoutwire article explaining why Macs Suck: Macs Suck - Here's Why

So choose wisely before you think about purchasing a Mac - which by the way you can't just walk into a Best Buy to do because they don't carry Macs. Oh and Vista is coming...don't want to miss that.

Hello! Just created an account here. I've usually blogged on MySpace. Let's give this place a try. I might even migrate everything here.

I've been thinking about gifts for my mother. My brother and I can't think of anything to get her. She likes jewelry, but we don't have that kind of money to buy her expensive jewelry. Any suggestions would be helpful.
