Today while I was getting ready for work that stupid bitch Ann Coulter was on the morning show “Fox and Friends.” Apparently, she has a new book out. Well - Fox would lead you to believe so anyways. It’s actually new on paperback. It’s been out for quite awhile now on hard copy. It’s called “How to talk to a liberal. (If you must)”. It truly is amazing how annoying this woman is. There is nothing about her I can stand. She is like one of those ignorant people that no matter what you say they are going to talk over your last sentence with the same thing over and over. There is no changing her mind on anything. Argh, what a way to start off my morning.
Not to mention I am really worried about a friend of mine. I am not quite sure how to handle her these days. I think she has made some decisions that have ruined some things in her life beyond repair. I am not sure that they are my fault. I don’t want to leave her hanging with the big stress she has in her life right now but it’s starting to get too much to worry about her and not have her respect me enough to answer and say “Hey, i’m okay. Thank you for caring”. Ya know?
I’ve had this ongoing problem with my display being unbelievably slow. Tonight was the absolute final straw. I have been getting into photo editing again which means I will be using Photoshop in Linux. I also always have tvtime(tv tuner application) running for my CNN news. My display has lagged so bad with everything being drawn to the screen. I sat down tonight to do some work and the lag it took me to display the gnome-menu pissed me off so much I looked at the clock and it read 9:36. Best Buy is open till ten I thought. Grabbed the keys and off I went. I arrived not knowing what I wanted but all I knew was I needed something better than the peice of shit Via Unichrome KM400 chipset i’ve been using. Finding something wasn’t very hard. What was hard was trying to get the sales guys to understand there are people out there who don’t play video games and don’t need a high end card. I bought the second to cheapest one there. It fits me perfect. I got a PNY GeForce 6600. The difference is amazing…how sweet it is.
Now, a flat panel? Nah..in a year or so when the insane prices drop..I can deal with my LCD.
