Of Meats and Browsers

As a result of quite a few incidents over the course of the past couple of months, this here citizen reporter is of the wild but not necessarily crazy belief that the universe is having fun at his expense. I mean, one thing happening. Well, that's life. Two things, it's a coincidence. Five things and well,.... I'm not crazy you know. You walk a in day in my shoes before you judge me

The most recent event which admittedly, could have happened to anyone begs the question - "Why is it that it's the day when you are so hungry you could eat a horse, you walk into a Chipotle Mexican Grill, and the person behind the counter decides that since he spent the last three hours killing, skinning and consequently grilling the pork/chicken he's about to serve you, he's only going to give you enough to flavor your food, the actual tasting and eating being so overrated?" . It's enough to drive one to cussing I tell you.

In a less related event, Firefox 3.0 beta 1 launched recently, and being the tech savvy person that I am, I decided to try it out. Despite the so far numerous good reviews the browser has been getting out there, I learned first hand why betas are called as such and released for testing only. The list of improvements is quite long and welcome, and as this is just a beta release, this isn't a criticism of the browser. It deserves a mention. I'm just going to have to find a virtual machine to test it on.

Also, I'm publishing this here post using the recently released Flock Browser 1.0 and travesty of all travesties, did I just see the "font" tag in my source code?

toodles..

"This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays."

Arthur Dent was right: Thursday is the Universe' chosen day to mess with our heads. First it's Chipotle skimping then the next thing you know, a chunk of Skylab's flattening your car.

But these things tend to balance out. You know, to keep you from getting too comfortable in the pattern. Before you know it, your wrap will be overflowing with spicy chickeny goodness and Gisele Bundchen asking for your help in her next shoot.
