Having a terrible time

I love this picture, just because I look like I want to hurt Dan. Which is probably true. That’s because he hasn’t played WoW in weeks, and I’m feeling spurned. Ryan, on the other hand, clearly wants no part in my evil plans.

Scary

Phillip Torrone wrote a post on Metroblogging SF about laptop thieves hitting SF. The two articles it links to are very scary. I can understand getting your laptop jacked if you leave it and go to the bathroom, but getting STABBED as you sit there in a coffee shop?! That’s really insane. The only thing I can think to deter thieves is to lock your laptop to the table or something. If they can see that it’s not going anywhere, then maybe they won’t make an attempt to steal it. Be careful out there!

Update: News.com has an article about what you can do to protect your laptop.

Urban Cowboy

My favorite part of my commute is my Urban Cowboy. He wears a beat-up leather jacket, tan cowboy hat (duh), boots, and Levis. He always has a cup of coffee, and he always yells “THANK YOU BUS DRIVER” when he gets off at 6th. He always offers his seat to the ladies (sometimes it’s me!) and never stands in the way of the doors.

I was at Edo buying shampoo with Naomi the other day, and he walked by with his yellow lab (!!!).

“Look, Naomi! It’s my cowboy!”
The receptionist looked out the window. She sighed.
“The Urban Cowboy, don’t you just love him?” She said.

Yes, Edo receptionist, yes I do.
