Ding Dong
Let's have a little story.
Once upon a time, there was a little scanner, named Hewlitt Packard PSC 2355 All-In-One Printer, Or Heppics for short. Little Heppics was naive and young, and so did not understand the urgency of the modern day world. Other bigger faster processors laughed at it, and it lay in the halls of Best Buy for many a century. It began to think that no one would want it.
Then, one day, It was bought! And it was hooked up to a new friend, Dell Inspiron 8600, or Inspy. Inspy was a big jerk, who ran Microsoft Windows XP like no one's business, and frequently crashed, everytime laughing at his owner who was only trying to print out comics and research papers last minute.
Well, Inspy and Heppics got along fine until one day Inspy grew tired of Heppic's calls for updates every day, so it decided to just ignore all signals from Heppic. While it was at it, it also decided to just ignore the whole damn thing as well. After all, hate the spam so you must hate the spammer!
Well, Heppic took so much offense that it refuses to call anymore. And the end result is that my scanner and laptop are no longer on speaking terms. Which means that when I went to scan Pylon on Monday, I discovered this unfortunate fact. Well, it was late, so I thought I'd sleep on it. And Tuesday... it still wasn't solved. Today, it still is messed up.
And I am still doing nothing about it. I know I should, because in addition to Pylon, I have school work to pump out, and I should get cracking on it...
Anyway...
On to happier things...
Can't think of any off the top of my head. So I guess it's back to babbling. So...
I am annoying slightly at the dining hall. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate all the staff and the food and all, but what tends to annoy me is the people who, in essence, trash the place. They leave their trays all over, food spills over everywhere. It isn't everyone, just a select stupid few, and they'll probably deny this to the day they die, but it's really disgusting. It kills me to see tables with trays of half-eaten decayed food just lying everywhere. You know, like I want to see their trash.
I hear that Kansas has gotten rid of Darwin's theory, or some such. I'm browsing through the internet, and already I'm seeing the uproar over this crap. Well, here is my take on it, right here and now: It doesn't matter. Step back, take a deep breath, reel in the attack dogs, and think: "Who cares about what Kansas has ruled? Since when has Kansas Board of Education transformed into the Supreme Court?" It'll probably get reversed within a year, knowing the legal system.
I wonder how long this post will get. I wonder if people ever plan the length of their posts. In case you have any thoughts, no, no I do not plan my posts. It's not like I'm writing some kind of book here. No, a book would be far, far more interesting. Also, it would have a plot. Also, it wouldn't be a blog, now, it would be a book.
Well, I guess it's time to fix that scanner now...
