Gilligan retrieves a stick out of Melton Hill Lake at daybreak on a beautiful spring morning. Gilligan has turned out to be even more of a water dog than Xena. She prefers to wait for him to return with the stick, then she jumps him in shallow water and takes it off him. Bully.
Apologies to the Mac Whore …
To the office Mac Whore, I apologize. I apologize for taunting you and your Cult of Apple ways. I apologize for all of my crimes and insults against the Mac. And I apologize for my slurs against St. Steven Jobs.
I just purchased a Mac mini (the 1.66GHz version, with 1 gig of RAM). Wow. It’s freakin’ awesome. And I really haven’t even done much with it yet.
Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
Several pieces in The New York Times yesterday noting the 100th anniversary of Samuel Beckett’s birth. One about his American publisher, the other about a 2,000 page, 4-volume collection of Beckett’s work that I’m thinking about ordering.
It’s interesting that on the same day, a co-worker sent me a Beckett quote that almost perfectly describes the stuff I’m working on these days …
“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.”
