brief report from SC
I am still on Kiawah Island, near Charleston, SC After with Chip and BlogStar Brettie. Sorry for the lack of posts and unresponsive e-mail. My access to computers thus far has been limited to Macs, which are generally user unfriendly and unproductive to good writing.
Wooo! Go Terps! Fear the Turtle! Hear us ROAR! Sam had some good passes on Saturday to lead a win against Florida. Sounded like it was an exciting game. Here's to a fun bowl and more exciting Terrapins Football.
I have not yet seen a real diamondback terrapin here, as apparently it is too late in the season. However, I have seen plenty of alligators both big and small, and I have pictures to prove it. We went on a birdwatching trip this morning and can now say I've checked off all the birds on the 'dark herons' page, with new inclusions of the tricolor heron, little blue heron, and even the wood stork.
We won our match against the Charlotte/Durham combined team, followed by a fun social at the Charlotte Eagle. Woofy pics to come. The Atlanta Bucks did not show up, and I have to say I am very, very disappointed with all the Atlanta boys (especially the redheads) because they let me down.

Prepare yourself for the deluge of apoplexy you have unleashed, get a spit guard.
Will there be tawdry stories to match the pictures?

Count me among the non-cultists.
Death to the ugly white plastic!

Really, you just go to all sorts of lows don't you?
Really there is nothing wrong with working on a Mac. It is a computer just like most PCs and most UNIX boxes. The fact that you don't know how to use one should be the comment you make.
My whole work environment is PC based, and I count it a blessing to go home and use my Non-crashing, non-virus-catching Mac for personal computing.

If "unproductive to good writing" is a sample phrase demonstrating the effect, you may be on to something! ;-)
