The Atomic Cafe
The ibook is server ready. I need to repurchase one domain and get a grasp on a more serviceable domain name ("juliemadsen.com" is taken. I wish she'd post some new stuff. All the same pictures from 2000! -- I could do ".cc" (cocos islands) or ".ca" (canada), but ".info" is cheapest).
It is possible that comcast will shut me down once I get hooked in. Apparently the corporations don't approve of self-hosting. Typical. We don't need the bosses, the bosses need us.
Oh, news update: packet four came back last week. My essay is done. I emailed it to the department a few days back. I've been sickly and in bed for going on two days. Reading is spotty - nose into a few story collections. Received a very nice email from a haiku nurse reader who has started her own haiku blog. Check it out. Dulcidream
Mr. Rockstar has a buncha upcoming shows. Saturday, May 10th at Slabtown is a Nuggets Tribute Night for The Portland School of Rock. Tuesday, May 13th at Doug Fir, the High Violets will play with Run Run Run & the Pink Snowflakes.

the ibook is pathetic. Man. What heap. I'll still work to reclaim it, but being trapped in the 10.2 system renders it obsolete.

You may remember the days before I signed up for the MFA program. Back then I had a baby ibook laptop. And then one day ibook baby died in my arms. So I buried it in a closet, gave Apple the long finger and switched teams after a lifetime of Apple product devotion.
well--
Today I cleared the PRAM and got the little beast started. Then rediscovered the "90 degrees and black" issue. I managed to pull on the screen enough to get the monitor working. I copied off all the things I thought I'd lost. I'm going to see about modifying the machine - either re-casing it to stop the black-out issue (a common problem) or turn it into a little server.
This and cleaning up the yard are my spring break projects. Only a month til spring break!
Oh, and Packet four returned today.

News:Barry explained that while the PowerBook G3 hinges are designed for 30,000 cycles (meaning the laptop Relevant Products/Services can be opened and closed 15,000 times)
