My hub (yes, a hub) is wimping out at 6% network utilization. Seeing as how I have 100gb of files to transfer, I don’t think it’s going to ever finish in time for me to install Feisty Fawn. rawr. And I’ve training later. On 5 hours of sleep (okay, now that I type it out it doesn’t seem so bad. Boo.)
Verse 1
He said I was in my early forties, with a lot of life before me
And one moment came that stopped me on a dime
I spent most of the next days, looking at the x-rays
Talking bout’ the options and talking bout’ sweet times.
I asked him when it sank in, that this might really be the real end
How’s it hit ‘cha when you get that kind of news?
Man what did ya do?
He said
Chorus
I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denyin’
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’
Verse 2
He said I was finally the husband, that most the time I wasn’t
And I became a friend, a friend would like to have
And all of a sudden goin’ fishin, wasn’t such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I finally read the good book, and I took a good long hard look
At what I’d do if I could do it all again
And then
Chorus
I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Shu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I’d been denyin’
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’
Bridge
Like tomorrow was the end
And ya got eternity to think about what to do with it
What should you do with it
What can I do with it
What would I do with it
Skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And man I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I watched an eagle as it was flyin’
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin’
To live like you were dyin’ (4x)
Ubuntu 7.04, codenamed “Feisty”, has been released. There doesn’t seem to be much changes, but I’ve downloaded the ISOs and am going to install them over the weekend. Let’s see if they give a performance increase on the Dell XPS.
Just started a shooting diary. Let’s see if it helps. Yes, I’m getting desperate.
Never have I been so afraid to read the comments on Digg, in case it reveals the ugly side of human nature.

Mallalieu said his professor held the door shut while students darted to the windows. Some climbed on desks, ledges and a radiator cover to pull down the screens and kick at the metal-framed glass, Mallalieu said. Three windows easily gave way and swung open on hinges as the gunshots got louder.
Some students ran to a nearby building. Others waited to help students who had been injured in the fall, Mallalieu said.
But then the sound of gunfire filled their classroom, sending all who had escaped toward nearby Patton Hall, he said.
Mallalieu said he never saw Librescu escape. “I don’t think my teacher got out.”
It’s times like these that I wonder about how fragile life is, just passing in those few moments. And will you go out in the flames of glory or the desolation of ignominy?
