Does it have nekid people fallin from the sky?

I am trying to decide between redoing last years, writing part two of the year before, or coming up with something else entirely. What did I do with that plot involving aliens kidnapping a filmmaker... hmm

Nope, but I’m re-writing some history. Or at least embellishing it. I’ll worry about plausibility on the re-write...

Recent history? Or alternate timeline stuff?

Last 50-60 years. Not alternate timeline.

I just need for some events to happen that may not exactly fit history. Nothing supernatural.

Plot? Crap. Knew I was forgetting something.

Yes! I’m posting on my new computer now!

Copying over pictures and stuff from the old one, which is going to take all night....

It’s got Vista, so it’s very strange and foreign to me... scary scary!

Burn After Reading was fun, and Brad Pitt was HILARIOUS!

Although sitting next to my daughter while Clooney unveiled his "invention" was a bit uncomfortable.

ROTFL! I'll bet it was!

Vista??? Yikes! Run away! Run away!.... :-)

Oh... I kid. It’ll probably be OK. But I would upgrade to Windows 7 as soon as you can. It’ll be out soon. It’s pretty much the “workable” service pack on Vista.

I’ve been running a Win 7 release candidate on my old laptop at the office for a few months now. It’s pretty sweet so far. I especially like the execution of their bitlocker encryption. Seems pretty schweet.

The re-arrangement of everything takes a while to get used to, but I’ve decided that I like it.

Yah, I’ve already registered with Dell for our free Win7 upgrade.

This new computer is wicked fast, though! Now I want a new one too. :)
