I hate technology

Things I own that are broken:

  1. Laptop #1 (4.5 years old) 
    -Sound-card
    -CD Drive
    -Internal hard-drive
    -Docking Station
    -Battery (lasts 45 minutes tops)
    -Fan (overheats in minutes)
    -RAM (takes 5 minutes to load a website/30 minutes a program)
  2. Laptop #2 (6 years old)
    -Wireless access (can’t even get on the internet)
    -CD Drive
    -Mouse 
  3. Wireless Router (won’t connect to modem- 7 years old)
  4. External Hard-drive (will not turn on- 3.5 years old) 
  5. Printer (leaks ink everywhere- 4.5 years old)
  6. Digital camera (won’t turn on- 3 years old) 
  7. iPod (will not play music- 4 years old)
  8. Cars
    -VW is totaled, engine blew up on the side of the highway
    -Just spent $550 on the Camry which caught on fire, still has a broken catalytic converter (NOT cheap) 

My droid works, my tv works, and my wii works.  Those things are really helpful with productivity.

Dear weather.com,
It is NOT 11° F outside right now, it is in the mid-60’s.  Thanks for trying though!

  • Brian: Why are you coming out of Burlington??
  • Adam: What do you mean?
  • Brian: Are you taking nuclear engineer classes?
  • Adam: No. BUT I like to know where every bathroom on campus is.
  • Brian: Haha, why?
  • Adam: Just think, when the zombies attack and you have to duck into a random building to escape, you are eventually going to need to know where the bathroom in that building is.
  • Brian: ...
  • Adam: You have to be prepared.
  • Brian: ...
  • Adam: Or the Zombies will eat your brains.

olivehearts:

Double radio show day. The WKNC show was considerably more relaxed. We had a whole hour to talk about touring and recording and played a bunch of songs. They even played a song from Ticonderoga’s secold album, the Heilig-Levine LP, “They Can Run.”. Ticonderoga was the name of the band Phil and Mark were in, with Wes Phillips, before breaking up. This is Beth writing, so I can say that Ticonderoga were an amazing band, with a lot of gorgeous and technically difficult and weird songs with odd time signatures and varied instrumentation.
You can hear some of their songs on http://www.myspace.com/Ticonderoga
Or http://www.ticonderobics.com
And their music is on iTunes.
All three men sang lead in Ticonderoga on different songs.
You might like them.

Organic 2 Final at 8am

  • Adam: If my life were played out in a movie. this would be the part where the slow piano music would play, and it would be really sad and everyone would cry.
  • Adam: But hopefully it would be a big mistake and it turns out there is nothing to be sad about afterall, and then we all break out into song!
  • Adam: Twist ending!
  • Adam: I also want my part to be played by Denzel Washington, because he yells a lot!
  • Jenna: OMG Adam stop texting me and focus on your study materials.
  • Jenna: Listen to the theme from Rocky.
  • Jenna: It will give you POWER.

The Near Future

helendear:

It’s looking pretty great. Here is why.

  • School starts!!!!!! I will learn how to make books, how to read children’s minds, and how to organize rocks. Seriously, August 19 cannot come soon enough.

I hate you, and the fact that you enjoy your classes.  My classes are about as fun as sticking a spoon into my eyeball.
