So the Hermits Lunch today was great. I have not had really really good indian food in a long time and it was a nice change. Then while
we were sitting at lunch it came up how OS X has burned Brian so bad. He can't get 10.2 to install at all it just stalls on the restart. So i
am only a few miles away at this point (already in Marina del Rey) so i offer to come over to fix the computer in exchange for some fine
beer. I drive Simon back over to Brian and Wendy's, where he's parked and he runs back to work. I then dive into OS X install world
AGAIN. So this one was not bad at all. I hit all the same things that Brian has in the past and he was very relieved. I admit the worst
thing to happen when you get somebody to help you is, They have NONE of the problems that you do and it's a snap. So brian and I start to
drink. Wendy starts to get me VERY depressed cause she shows me all of her digital cameras. VERY NICE. I wish i had $3000 sitting
around to buy the nikon. Anyway. The install just seems to be hanging somewhere in the bios startup, so i figure it's having toruble with
some piece of hardware. I pull the plug on everything, so i only have a monitor and the keyboard plugged in. no go. So... only one more
thing i can pull. Wendy's got two monitor boards, and maybe one of em is screwing things up on startup. So out it comes, and Boom. The
thing starts up. Drinking begins again. (about an hour passes) and we get all the install done and all the upgrades and all the fun stuff.
Well by this time it's about 3:30 and i make my leave. Traffic is so fun in Los Angeles. I'ts about 4:45 by the time i get home. Well back
to work. Jason is Aiming me talking about his new toy. nice little tmoblie phone.
