The writers have been on strike for 100 days and it ended Wednesday… and two "days" later they GO ON VACATION??? Come on! I just hope they are doing this to actually work and get back into gear to come back with a ton of shit.
I'm gonna hurt someone. I NEEDS ME SOME WØRD!
“With digital copy!” nice try.

It's the first such release with this new feature. I'm excited to see it, it's a great idea!
Inside it says: " Simply insert disc 2 into your Mac's DVD drive and 'Double click to transfer to Transfer Movie to iTunes' will guide you the rest of the way and.. once you have it…transer to iPod etc…". Great I think, I'll do that!
I insert it. It opens up a window with a nice graphic and a iTunes icon saying "Double Click to Transfer to iTunes" , I double click it like it says… and… nothing. I do it again… nothing. Again, nothing.
Obviously it doens't work as advertised, so I look in iTunes, there is the disc – I select it and BAM, up comes a screen with the title asking for a serial number, it's on the insert. Type type type… download starts.
So it worked – but not off the disc, I think. It downloaded it from iTunes, I think, not sure. But it worked, I think, as advertised, kinda. They need to do it on a mac a few times to get the instruction process down a bit more, I think.
I will say though that the Mac side was one paragraph of instructions (that didn't work) sharing the front with all the 'freakin' sweet' info, serial number and fine print, the whole other side was PC instructions with a four screenshot spread. WTFs up with that?
I got it in iTunes anyway for now, so that's somethin' I did this week other than be buried alive in pincushion orders. (how many times am I supposed to feel weird saying that?)

I'm an auntie for the first time! YAY!
I plan on being the rebel auntie who taken him out to musuems to bore him about medieval art and teach him how to curse like a sailor for his third grade show and tell!
Organ Donor
Posted by jen February 3rd, 2008 in Jeneral. 2 CommentsCellular Memory in Organ Transplants is a really interesting read about documented cases where translated organs give the recipient takes on traits of the donator. 47 year old man giggles like his 14 year old donor girl. Lesbian meat eater goes straight and vegetarian. Just fascinating.
Another link if you dont think thats cool enough. It has more in depth info on many of the cases above, and many more.
