This is fun

Read about what the administration was doing in the 90's on the bush war time line.

Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney, speaking to the Discovery Institute in Seattle, says the first President Bush was right not to invade Baghdad: "The question in my mind is how many additional American casualties is Saddam worth? And the answer is not very damned many. So I think we got it right, both when we decided to expel him from Kuwait, but also when the president made the decision that we were not going to go get bogged down in the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq." 8/14/1992

Itunes 6 Forever

I finally got sick enough of the new itunes to downgrade back to 6. I dont have a iphone, cover flow doesnt work well on my old laptop and the sound quality sucked. 6 is also wicked fast when it comes to API calls which means the sweet java script hacks I wrote to create playlists are really quick. I had forgotten it took minutes to create artist play list named by album on 7; 6 does it like snap.
Album art is now needed for everything I got using the ITMS store Get ArtWork dealy but oh well

New Thing

Man I hate thornleigh

If your bored then your boring right? It rained all weekend here so I did a lot of nothing. I made two trips to the mall because apparently no one in Australia has a desire to purchase name brand electronics at low low prices after 6 PM on a Saturday. I rolled into the empty parking lot and traipsed through the mall in vein looking for headphones as everything was closed but the movie theater. I ate a quick dinner in the sparsely populated food court with some cinema patrons. I conquered the mall the following day finding a decent pair of headphones to replace my tattered and now mono travel warriors.

Sunday was clear enough to warrant a run and I got lost in the outskirts of the Berowra Valley Regional Park which is like a block from my house. I need suggestions for an activity this weekend as it is my last. I am thinking about going to the zoo because I haven't seen a marsupial the whole time Iv been here.

Hey Virginians go vote Tuesday. The entire legislature is on the ballot. Here is a summary article in the Roanoke Times
