I'm fairly new to this slashdot org and well yes i really enjoy it, it's like a candy store. Since this site is so good for talking and exchanging ideas maybe there should be a section for Nerd Dating, Quit Smoking Support Group for nerds, nerd Dream Interpretation and my personal beef, Apple Fantasies. Here's my best nerd dating story so far. (Juicy details have been omitted). I never realized how sexy being a nerd was until the day I showed 'her' my new first generation Titanium Laptop. For a few weeks i had been chatting her up with the tech talk, showed her my minivan and new self-installed Alpine stereo with remote control, let her have a peak at the gun show, then one day i whipped out the new hardware and shortly after that we were doing it like porn squirrels to the chipmunk soundtrack. That was the start of a great booty call, that, a few months later .. like a true nerd i fcuked it up by telling her i cared. !?! what?!!! lesson learned, Never mistake a booty call for a relationship. The sex is gone, the logic board is toast, the shaggin wagon has been traded in for an SUV. Sure I've had other girlfriends and booty calls but none have been as tech saavy as my shaggin waggin friend, i think nerd girls are sexy. There is this new girl at work who does design work, she is a fox, a bit chunky but very sexy. She likes to wear skirts with high heels and she is always talking about her 'boyfriend' which usually means relationship insecurity, so there may be a snowballs' chance in hell of a sneak date. I'll work on a rendevouz a bit more as i get back into shape again. Red Green put it best, Are you in dating shape? take off those clothes and look in the mirror, what do you see? now get back in there and fix that relationship.

i was going to write something juicy but the words above the entry box say permanent record... i feel like in the future this crap will be used against me somehow. Permanent record sounds criminal doesn't it?

I purchased tiger and installed it, then I hear on the news that the Steve Jobs decides to make the OS run on INTEL. Not so great, what a con job apple did on us! I say hold off buying anything till this next generation of computers is ready. Why will I go out and buy Apple Production Suite for my G5, or any other piece of software for that matter, when i know very shortly support and updates won't be there.
