- DVDFab is an awesome program! I use it to rip my movies onto my iPod, and to copy my DVDs. Ever since I ditched Nero, I find that I’m much more willing to burn stuff for people.
- I hate the TTC more than ever. Getting to work at 7am on a Saturday morning is a pain in the ass, because instead of taking 1 bus straight to Finch Station, I have to transfer on Yonge, then walk to Finch Station. Horse shit!
- A customer called and told us he had a credit card stuck and he was at the intersection of Steeles and Cactus. My coworker told everyone it was the stupidest prank call ever, “what kinda stupid street is called Cactus?” Boy, was Sami ever wrong.
- District 9 was pretty damn good. My coworker told me they already have a sequel called District 13 and the Prawns turn into acrobatic Frenchmen.
- Customer quote of the year:

“That’ll be $4.00 please.”
“$4.00? But…what am I gonna do with my life now?”

I fuckin’ DIED! The guy sounded so sad, he reminded me of Gill from The Simpsons. The timing and the delivery was perfect.
- I’m officially retiring my 2004 Red Sox hat. It was the only hat I had with a curved bill. I am now promoting the newer Red Sox hat, and am in the process of breaking it in (even though I’ve had that one since 2007).

To be honest, it was because I'm getting too old to wear my hats flat-billed.

- I maybe off the Internet and TV for like 2 days as they’re digging up something on my street. I’m contemplating being a smartass and leaving a treasure map (teabagged to age it, not in that way, you dirty people) in the ditch.
- My sister’s sick, but that’s what she gets for going to school. If she started skipping school as much as I did, then she wouldn’t get sick as much.
-

ahhhh, I’m spent. Perhaps more later.
