Love is a Many Splendored Thing

Love is a many-splendored thing,
It's the april rose that only grows in the early spring,
Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living,
The golden crown that makes a man a king.
Lost on a high and windy hill,
In the morning mist two lovers kissed and the world stood still,
When our fingers touch my silent heart has taught us how to sing,
Yes, true love's a many-splendored thing.

Well after 6 days in Florida my head is about to explode... The sinuses just didn't understand the concept of vacation.

This is my first full day back and I think that in another 2 days I'll be fixed.

It's already getting old but the shocker still makes me laugh. I saw a kid with a tshirt on at a local concert venue that had a picture of the gesture and said "The Shocker - Two in the Pink, One in the Stink". That's a shirt that I would likely wear just for the shock value... pun?

Anyhow, Wikipedia has quite a list of 2 in the and one in the's....

1. "Two in the pink, one in the stink."
2. "Two in the coot, one in the boot."
3. "Going to town, with one in the brown."
4. "Two in the bush, one in the tush."
5. "Two in the slut, one in the butt."
6. "Two in the grass, one in the ass."
7. "Two in the split, one where she shits."
8. "Dos en el rosado, y uno en el morado."
9. "Two in the goo, one in the poo."
10. "Two in the cake, one in the pudding."
11. "Two inside a woman's vagina, one inside a woman's rectum"
12. "Two in the baby maker, one in the patty caker."
13. "Two in the condom muncher, one in the donkey puncher."
14. "Two in the meat pie, one in the brown eye."
15. "Two at Yale, one at Brown."

the Idiot Savant (43% dark, 69% spontaneous, 50% vulgar)

your humor style: VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | LIGHT You like things silly, immediate, and, above all, outrageous. Ixne on the subtle word play, more testicles on fire, please. People like you are the most likely to RECEIVE internet forwards--and also the most likely to save them in a special folder entitled 'HOLY SHIT'. Because it's so easily appreciated, and often a little physical, your sense of humor never ceases to amuse your friends. Most realize that there's a sly intelligence and a knowing wink to your tastes. Your sense of humor could be called 'anti-pretentious'--but paradozically, that indicates you're smarter than most. PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Johnny Knoxville - Jimmy Kimmel

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 27% on dark You scored higher than 99% on spontaneous You scored higher than 72% on vulgar

It's an ugly sandwich with cute pieces of bread...

me: do you think that girl will be there 2nite showing off her ring and telling everyone she's engaged.
me: ?
her: I dont know
her: I'm guessing not
me: but if she is, let's start breaking her down
her: like how?
me: i dunno... make her have doubts.
me: Or tell her she's living life through a drunken blur
me: Or that she's fat
me: whatever it is that would make her cry
me: although she seems the type to throw a punch.
me: So maybe i'd just say hello - and nice ring.
her: why are you so mean
me: i was beaten as an adult
her: GAWD
her: what can we do about this
me: Not sure.
me: Castration?
me: Oh... wait, I know....
me: Sensitivity training.
me: And no more British comedies.
me: come on... just love me.

Workstation, yes; Server, no.

The G5 is a gigantic improvement over the previous CPU in the PowerMac, the G4e. The G5 is one of the most superscalar CPUs ever, and has all the characteristics that could give Apple the edge, especially now that the clock speed race between AMD and Intel is over. However, there is still a lot of work to be done.

First of all, the G5 needs a lower latency access to the memory because right now, the integer performance of the G5 leaves a lot to be desired. The Opteron and Xeon have a better integer engine, and especially the Pentium 4/Xeon has a better Branch predictor too. The Opteron's memory subsystem runs circles around the G5's.

Secondly, it is clear that the G5 FP performance, despite its access to 32 architectural registers, needs good optimisation. Only one of our flops tests was " Altivectorized", which means that the GCC compiler needs to improve quite a bit before it can turn those many open source programs into super fast applications on the Mac. In contrast, the Intel compiler can vectorize all 8 tests.

Altivec or the velocity engine can make the G5 shine in workstation applications. A good example is Lightwave where the G5 takes on the best x86 competition in some situations, and remains behind in others.

The future looks promising in the workstation market for Apple, as the G5 has a lot of unused potential and the increasing market share of the Power Mac should tempt developers to put a little more effort in Mac optimisation.

The server performance of the Apple platform is, however, catastrophic. When we asked Apple for a reaction, they told us that some database vendors, Sybase and Oracle, have found a way around the threading problems. We'll try Sybase later, but frankly, we are very sceptical. The whole "multi-threaded Mach microkernel trapped inside a monolithic FreeBSD cocoon with several threading wrappers and coarse-grained threading access to the kernel", with a "backwards compatibility" millstone around its neck sounds like a bad fusion recipe for performance.

Workstation apps will hardly mind, but the performance of server applications depends greatly on the threading, signalling and locking engine. I am no operating system expert, but with the data that we have today, I think that a PowerPC optimised Linux such as Yellow Dog is a better idea for the Xserve than Mac OS X server.

Melvin Goes to Dinner: I can't remember how I stumbled onto this... it might have been during a Maura Tierney infatuation or something, but it is a gem. If you don't need action in your movies and appreciate well written witty dialog then this is right up there with Kevin Smith's Clerks.

Stumbled on this googling the word "dillhole"

I like to swim. I was at Nelson's Ledges in Ohio for an annual event that I end up going there to see. That place is just great.

Now all I need is enough money to buy my own quarry and I can have the convienence of the Ledges in my own back yard.

I'm a bastard. It's been proven time and time again by my inability to interact with others. The thing is, in my mind, I am the greatest conversationalist of our time.

You should all just plug in and feel the power that is me.
