Tri 2 Update
Today was a beautiful day for biking. Actually watched the sun set on my ride. Nice. Kinda cut my trip a bit short once it was dark and all though. Still managed to squeeze in 15 miles even with the late meeting at work today.

The more I use my Garmin Forerunner 301 the more I like it.
C.S. Lewis Narnian Quotes
Time to add a few more quotes to the mix. And to be fair to both sides we selected the mindless classic Zoolander and the literary writings of C.S. Lewis.
"I call all times soon."
"'It's all right! It isn't Her!' This was bad grammar of course, but that is how beavers talk when they are excited; I mean, in Narnia – in our world they usually don't talk at all."
"For in Calormen, story-telling (wether the stories are true or made up) is a thing you're taught, just as English boys and girls are taught essay-writing. The difference is that people want to hear the stories, whereas I never heard of anyone who wanted to read the essays."
Zoolander Quotes
Time to add a few more quotes to the mix. And to be fair to both sides we selected the mindless classic Zoolander and the literary writings of C.S. Lewis.
"Rufus, Brint, and Meekus were like brothers to me. And when I say brother, I don't mean, like, an actual brother, but I mean it like the way black people use it. Which is more meaningful I think."
"[coughing] I think I'm getting the Black Lung, Pop."
"I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is."
Mac / Win Debate Heats Up
Well now that Apple has switched over to the "Intel Inside" camp, speculation has been running rampant over what this means for computers. Many hope that Apple will start selling OS X (a highly polished version of Linux) without the mandatory Mac… while that would be "cool" – since everything Apple does is both hip and cool – don't expect it anytime soon. While this could happen it is unlikely given Apple's control freak attitude towards its technology. Maybe if they weren't making billions off their iPods and were desperate for cash, but not today.
On the flip side, ever since the first Intel Mac rolled off the assembly line hordes of nerds -oh sorry- geeks have been working feverishly on getting windows installed on a Mac. Well the wait is over and we have a winner. The folks at OSx86Project.org have succeeding in loading not only windows but the currently unreleased Vista version (coming to stores near you this fall or possibly next year – you know MS) of windows.
