I had to upgrade GarageBand on my MacBook today in order to use files from my iPad. Here is a quick review based on my first thirty minutes or so of use.
The new Mavericks version of GarageBand…
SUCKS!
I HATE IT!
What did you idiots do? This was the best program on Earth for quick and easy recording projects. Now it’s GARBAGE!
I am so pissed off.
We are always grateful to those who serve, but on this day we give special thanks to those who did not come home.
Thanks to all Veterans today. Your sacrifices are eternally appreciated.
My beautiful wife and I have pretty much checked out this weekend. I had a work issue come up Friday night, we went birthday present shopping yesterday, and went to a birthday party today. The rest of the weekend has been split between sleeping late and flaking out. It’s been heaven.
Right now we are watching a Ken Burns documentary on a guy named Horatio Nelson Jackson. Who the hell is that?
In 1903 he was in San Francisco and made a bet. Some one said, I bet you $50 you can’t drive an automobile from here to New York. Four days later, Jackson was on the road to New York.
Although there were no actual paved roads. There were also no maps. There were also no gas stations. There were also no auto mechanics. His car was basically a buggy with a little motor. How it got him across town, I’ll never know.
That didn’t stop this nut job from hitting the road though. We’ve got a half hour left in the show. Hopefully I will be able to post again later saying that his story ended in New York. We’ll see.
I have never seen a Ken Burns documentary that I didn’t seriously enjoy. This is no exception.
Thanks, Ken Burns!
My brother and sister in law have two children. They were both born in October. Today is their combined birthday bash. My niece is five and my nephew is three. The party is at a gymnastics joint.
We bought them each a present. Hopefully the presents will go over well. Our fingers are crossed.
I have one complaint for those who manufacture and market toys to three year old children. You, oh toy companies, do realize that people very often gift wrap toys to give to children, right? How about you jerks start putting your toys into packages that are actually wrap-able? Is that too much to ask, you pukes faces? My three year old nephew is going to spend the rest of his life laughing at the horrible wrapping job I did on his birthday present. Why is the wrapping job so bad? Because the package you people put it in is not of a geometric shape that is physically capable of being covered in wrapping paper.
You jerks are on my list now.
It’s practically a Welcome to Methuen sign.
Breakfast… Just what I needed.
Here are some of the things on my tentative agenda for this weekend:
Of course, here is what I will actually accomplish
Sometimes doing the right thing sucks. Know what I mean?
Like when you’re eating dinner with your beautiful wife and you get a call from work and then end up spending the next three hours working even though you are not on call and you are not part of the 2nd shift staff.
That like totally sucks.
But what can you do? Helping out is the right thing to do, even if it does mean you’re Friday night is kind of down the crapper.
In the office park I work in these days there are two buildings. The cafeteria is in one building, and my desk is in the other. Twice today I have walked to the cafe. Once for a drink at about 10:40am, and then later to get lunch at a little after 1:00pm.
During both walks outside, the building was being circled by a helicopter.
There are two possible reasons for this. One, given our close proximity to the traffic nightmare known either as state route 128, or US route 95, there may be a traffic situation nearby that is being constantly monitored by local news networks.
The other possible explanation for the helicopter is that Henry Hill works in my building.
Always remember, don’t call from the house phone and make sure you keep stirring the gravy!
