Holy crap, its freezing out there, and that's literally! Anyways, spec-ed out a new rack. How long did it take me last time? I think I've got it down to an art form, It looks like around two hours, but I had to take like a twenty minute break checking the chillers because the temp in this room was shooting up. Alas, I did not know that they were experimenting with the new settings for the air handlers now that we have all those Dell high performance racks. Those things sure put out a lot of heat. But of course, there's finding the fine line between keeping those cool and not making it unbearably cold in here. I think we can err a little on the cold side. I prefer to put on a jacket then deal with trying to cool down a bunch of overheating 'puters any day.

I sure do watch too much TV and movies. For example, a recent post I made to gtg: ( I was commenting on stunt casting on shows like Law & Order )

Although I'm realizing now I didn't mention how MM & AOT and JR & AY played married couples on multiple things. Like MM & AOT played Topanaga's parents. And Casey and Jack Tripper on Wings and the Problem Childs. Its like, I'm surprised she didn't end up playing JD or Ben's mother. And what's with Ed playing people's brothers recently? He's someone who plays a lot of similar characters. You know, like how Chandler plays very Chandler like characters in the movies he does. Though he prolly wasn't as wacky when he did that stint on the West Wing. And now I'm realizing I'm referring to characters on TV shows without actually referencing the TV shows, so I'm sure most people don't know what the hell I'm talking about.

Anyhoo, only thirty minutes before lunch, which is good, because I'm starving. I was really pissed about the food court being closed yesterday. I'm gonna try junior's today, and if its closed I shall be "very put out" and "terribly vexed" (pop quiz: name the movies and characters who I'm referencing!) I'm sure its open, though yesterday I was so hangry (its a portmanteau!) I was threatening to rip the larynx of the person responsible for this shocking dismayal. Speaking of, that was one of the coolest parts in "Love, Honour, and Obey". Its like totally bad-ass!

I also totally forgot to mention how I can be a moron at times. When reading the latest Penny Arcade, I was all, "glasses with TV's in them?!" thinking they were talking about drinking glasses, and I was like trying to figure out how they would work and why would you need a cup with a mini-TV on it. So I mention this to the roomie as we had dinner at IHOP and he was all, they meant eyeglasses. Now that makes a lot more sense. That would be totally cool too, though. I mean, who wouldn't want glasses that were like TV screens, those would be awesome! You can play games and watch DVDs on the go, and in the future you could like plug it into your cell and do like a video phone thing, though I don't know how you'd get a video image of yourself for the other caller. Or in the military, attatch it to a gun mounted camera so you can shoot around corners and stuff. Oh wait, they have that already. But seriously, its the next best thing to a retinal display!

That was an interesting Veronica Mars tonight. But as someone on the TWoP forums said, wow, she has chemistry with everybody! I mean, you could cut the sexual tension between her, Duncan, Logan, and Weevil with a knife! Although D-L and L-W were a little ho-yay. what's up with that? Anyways, what a way to end until next year. ( poker and stalkers )

And seriously, Curb Your Enthusiasm can be so insane sometimes! Not that that's a bad thing, because it can get pretty hysterical.
