Fuck Yeah Seagate!

I bought a Seagate 120GB drive a while ago from Best Buy.  It was on special for $50, and the drive in my current workstation is slowly dying.  I figured it was time to upgrade.

Unfortunately, the drive was b0rked when I got it.  I mailed it off to Seagate for repairs, and lo and behold, I received a new drive in the mail today–a 160GB drive.  I didn’t even have to waste any time talking to a “technician” in India.  I told them my drive was fucked, they believed me, and I got a better drive in exchange a few weeks later.

Therefore the headline: Fuck Yeah Seagate!

An Open Challenge to Meh

There’s been a rise in graffiti in Madison over the last few years–nothing particularly serious, just some taggers trying to impress people by writing their pseudonyms all over town.

To be honest, it all looks like shit. I haven’t seen anything anywhere in this town that was inspired by anything but four cans of Red Bull and having borrowed Dad’s minivan.

Meh has scrawled his tag all over town in a juvenile attempt to make a name for himself. Well, Meh, I’ve seen your “work”–and it sucks. Simply writing your name all over everything doesn’t make you an underground artist, it just makes you a vandal. Here’s a chance to redeem yourself.

I hate my car. It’s a piece of shit, and it looks the part. So here’s my challenge: prove you’re not some useless little punk shit by actually making something people want to look at. My car is an open canvas, waiting for you to make your mark.

I drive a black ’93 Ford Tempo, and it’s parked on or near the 1000 block of Willy St just about every night. Go ahead, do anything you want with it–so long as I can still see through the windows.

I fucking dare you.

Going for a reaction

I printed out the picture below and put it up in my cube at work.  I’m hoping it will offend someone.

As a follow up, I haven’t seen Barefoot Broom Lady since I talked with her a few weeks ago.  I’m hoping she’s someplace warm.
