I am Joe’s knowledge of songs…

A couple of months ago, Tim gave me a CD of songs from this band called Me First and the Gimmie Gimmes. They are a punk band that does covers of songs and punk them up a bit. Some of the songs I knew right off the bat. Others, I had to go online to find the title by punching in parts of the lyrics in Google.
Got tired of waiting for the girlfriendto call, so I called. Like me she is tired; she was already in bed when I called. **yawn** Now that I know she is in bed, I can goto bed.

I amJoe’s accomplished Monday afternoon…

Well, we are almost ready for inventory on Sat. Tim and I busted ass today and got most of the gift department precounted. With Mark here tomorrow, we should be able to get everythng done.
I am so tired though. It took forever for me to try to edit pictures last night. And I really didn’t do much except let Photoshop auto-adjust levels and some cropping. I was able to take out some blemishes and stuff, but I totally forgot to takeout the redeye in alot of the pictures. And then it seemed to take forever to post everything to my site. Then I looked at the site today, and the navigation doesn’t work cause it is a Frontpage extension thing and my site is on a non extension server. And then I forgot to change the target frame for something, so it is kinda messed up. I swear it wasn’t doing this when I tested it last night. Well, I will work on it when I get home. I def. need to get some sleep tonight; no getting sucked into Harry Potter @ 3am in the morning. Oy Vey. I also need to clean the dishes in the sink. And then there is also my MP3 player. Sometimes I wish that I would have waited for the new Jukebox to come out; it has firewire and a bigger hd. It would have made it muh easier to download my music. What else? Oh yeah, I better go to the cheap furniture store and order those chairs for the kitchen table.

I am Joe’s bad Apple

Windows “Switchers” Were Solicited, Paid
It turns out that Apple’s latest ad campaign, in which former Windows users explain why they moved to the Mac, is less than honest. Contrary to comments made by CEO Steve Jobs last week, Apple solicited the ex-Windows users featured in the ads–the users didn’t approach the company first. Furthermore, the participants were paid to be in the ads and will receive royalties each time their ad airs. I don’t think any of this would be noteworthy if Jobs hadn’t implied that the users approached Apple instead of the other way around.
