Apple can bite it.

My post on the apple tech forums got removed. I was legitimately looking for a response, hoping that somebody could P2P a free tool for checking the hardware. The response from the forum was NO! You can't get free software for free. I got irate and left another post. After hours, the post was taken down. Here is the polite response I got from Apple, followed by my post.

Well, Apple can bite it. They really should provide that for
download somehow. I don't think that's even a little unreasonable.
For the premium you pay for their hardware, they really should
give a little more.

Being naked is Fucking Metal.

Can stand to work on the speakers a little bit. But I'm pretty happy with it. Like the drawing of the guitar. Look for a color version in the future. Maybe.

Character very near and dear to my heart. Trying to write comics about her. But writing is pretty hard.

Homosassa Springs

What kind of nutball series of posts is this? Rants about open platforms, bitching about John McCain, drawings of naked girls--and now Manatees?

Went on a field trip today to Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park to visit some of our very unlikely friends, the Florida Manatee. I really don't understand how these things are not extinct. Every one I've ever been around has next to no survival instict at all. And these were FAAAAT! The largest ones weigh upward of 3,000 lbs.

In all seriousness, I really love these animals. But I don't know that my grandchildren will even know what the hell they are.

Go to my flickr account to check out the whole set.


This manatee wanted to hang out and stare at these rocks. Good enough.

These guys were apparently pissed because the day before they didn't get their usual Romaine Lettuce since the grocery store was out or something. Fat jerks refused to eat it.

Awwww...look at him! He's got the cutey-ootiest little face. And a 3,000 lb body. That's 3x what a wild manatee weighs.

Sometime there are not words to describe the things we encounter.
