Just wanted to hit the sack, pulled back the cover, and 2 huge black spiders ran for cover… I am not afraid of spiders, but please go contribute to the environment somewhere else kthx...

E: and I managed to lock one in another room and trapped the other and released it outside. Spiderman!..

Talking Spiderman.

This is one of my more nutty friends in the Bahamas.

One day when we were diving at about 100 feet, he came up behind Mrs G wearing that thing over his wet suit, mask and regulator and tapped her on the shoulder.  I thought I'd lost her that day…..G

All.  I am thinking of moving to the dark side (yep, dumping the bloody Windows thing and getting a Mac).  I am not (by any stretch of the imagination, a power user), but I do like to have at least a million windows open at once.  Don't particularly care about screen size.  Any recommendations?  G

If you keep an eye on the Apple Store, you can get refurbished 21" iMacs for under $1,000. Just saw one for $929 yesterday when looking for a friend. Rufurbs come and go on the site ($929 option not available currently, but could show back up again at any point)…

The refurbs are a good deal. I've bought refurbished Macs a few times, as have friends, and have had no problems. Have same 1 year warranty as new machine (they are essentially new). If you don't need notebook, the iMac is a good machine. 21" display is nice too.

Likewise. I know I sure as fuck did…

And DEP, don't take after me.  One of my end of semester reports merely said "Giles who?"
