well it all started when i was two. my mom lost me at the circus. the clowns gave me a place to sleep.
the trapeze people droped me twice. that sexy ladies snake bit me. thats when i started hanging with the freaks. the sword swallowing lady was real nice to me. her midget husband didnt like me but i kicked his ass. then i turned 4.
thats about as far as i can get before people jump from the window.

I agree, Pepsi tastes like shit and needs to die. Plus cheese cake is some of the greatest stuff on earth. I think I'll tell my computer-related life up to now.
Despite the fact that everyone in my community uses windows (even now the furthest from that is one of my friends using Lindows), I was lucky enough to have parents that used macs. Our first computer was a Macintosh SE/30 that I thought was amazing. I loved using KidPix, playing Number Munchers, and watching my brother play Dungeons and Dragons. After it's monitor died, we got a Performa 6116 CD. That was also amazing (mostly because it had a color monitor). It was motly then that I started playing around with computers a lot. Soon we also got a second computer (a Quadra, but I don't know what model). After a while we replaced the Quadra with a PowerMac 8500/150. A couple years ago I started messing with reorces whie developing plugins for a game called EV: Override. Eventually my Dad got an iBook and last year my mom got a PowerBook. At the end of the summe brother is going to get an iBook with money from his summer job. The monitor from the Performa died a couple years ago so we replaced it with a PowerMac 5500/225. Lately I've been trying to get the Performa hard drive to work in the 8500. Not long ago someone gave me a QuickTake 100, which still works pretty well. A few months ago I also set up a network that connects all the computers in our house to the internet. It's pretty annoying with most of the people around me who worship windows and the xbox, and those who do listen to me don't care about what microsoft does, just so long as they can still suf the internet and instant message their friends.
For most of my life I never cared about what operating system a computer used. Last year when I heard about this web site on a game sevice called GameRanger. I liked Linux and have wanted to try it out ever since (but haven't actually had much time yet). I had already begun getting frustrated with windows, so this site was easy to agree with. Recently I've been trying to learn how to use the Mac OS X terminal. Does anyone know a good tutorial where I can learn just the basics and figure it out from there?

i hate computers. more and more, they drive me insane. fuck em. turn the machine off, go outside, go paint some graf. go listen to some music. read a book. nope. i will sit here and fiddle with php and this goddamn intraweb bullshit. it is fun, but it is too involved. at least for me, it is too involved. computers sucked me in and there is no turning back. i am a geek. fate or something. oh well. that is enough of that. this thread needs to catch up. the ignore thread is kicking ass. probably because it says ignore and we are a reblious people who will do the opposite and post in it till it is larger than the large images thread. speaking of which, i think it is time to add a desktop to that thread .. . .

Hey, we've nearly got halfway to the other thread! We're catching up! Who here thinks that I should keep my bling sig picture year round instead of just for July?
