when it comes down to it

i love myself

i love my family

i love my friends

i love my girlfriend

i love my dog

everything else can be replaced

everything happens for a reason

Once and for all i decided not to get a bike. Even though I accepted the fact that I was inevitably going to fall down, and could possibly die i was still willing to get it, but the deciding factor was my friends and family. I wouldn't feel good knowing that every time I left my house they might be hurting, worried that i might not be coming back.

AND WITH MUCH LESS MONEY I GOT...... A MAC PRO!!!!! I feel that with this "investment" i can do far more! Plus I got really lucky with the price. The night prior i walked into the Mac store with jessica with the money ready to by the base Mac Pro With only 1 Quad core Nehalem Processor, and a mere 3 GB of RAM. When I walked up to the computer ready to buy I had to go through 3 PEOPLE whom each told me that I had to make an appointment to give them money and walk out with my MacPro (I told them I didn't need training or a tutorial) Ridiculous! They told me they could make an appointment for me in 2 hours with such a big purchase they wanted to go over the computer. They loose. The next day i found an ad on craigslist and to make a long story short left with MacPro that had specs exceeding that in the store.

Here are the specs:

2 x 2.66GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon (Quad-Core)

Nvidia Geforce 8800 GT (Dual Screen Support)

5GB DDR2 RAM

1 x 250GB HD

2 x 1 TB HD

Superdrive

Also:

Logitech Z-2300 Speakers

2 x 19" Acer X193w Monitors

Everything cost me under 2k with a value of almost 3500 if bought at the apple store. Needless to say I'm very happy.

Next i want to take more pictures and learn more about photoshop. The first thing i did was make the new banner :D

frustrations, friends, and you

there isn't really much to say. i like keeping around me people whom are not afraid to express their opinion, especially if it contradicts my own. people who speak there mind, when and where there minds are thinking it. Keeping things bottled up inside will only blow up in your face.

i'm giving this my all.

all hail "Nehalem"

The new macpro with two QUADCORE Nehalem processors !!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly the same price as the ducati. Now I have the cash. oh decisions decisions!!!

i love dogs.. crazy ass dogs

caffeine

Discovered in 1819 by a german chemist, it is a central nervous system stimulant, having the effect of temporarily warding off drowsiness, and increasing alertness.

HOW IT WORKS!!!!!!

Caffeine is absorbed by the stomach in around 45 minutes and has a half life of 3-4 hours in the average adult. This means it takes about 3-4 hours to eliminate half of the amount ingested. Acting as a competitive inhibitor to Adenosine receptors (Adenosine is the stuff that makes us sleepy) it keeps you awake. The problem is that once the caffeine is gone the adenosine is still floating around up there and has accumulated even more over the time that caffeine just bought you, so now you're even MORE SLEEPY... aghhhhhh!!!!! This is just skimming the surface of course, but i thought it was interesting, so i looked it up. lol.

tothaches suck

true story.

My new love...

Seriously... wow. Today i test drove the LR2 and was pretty impressed. The salesmen took us around back to an area where he demonstrated it's impressive off-road capabilities. But seriously... we're in florida. I don't need or even want off-road capabilities. I want a car with stunning looks, good road handling, a strong power-train (ability to tow jet ski's and a small boat :D) That brings me to a car that seems to fit the bill... the all new Audi Q5. It's got everything i want AND MORE!!!!! It's like my A3 on steroids improved in all the right places and propped up so i don't have to worry about effing manholes. $45k tho... graduation? acceptance to med-school?
