Coffee & TV

I finally was able to read the lyrics of Blur’s Coffee and TV after years of singing along with the wrong words. Incidentally, I could relate to it:

So give me Coffee and TV, history;
I’ve seen so much, I’m going blind, and I’m brain dead virtually;
Sociability– it’s hard enough for me.
Take me away from this big bad world and agree to marry me, so we can start all over again…

Accident

The most serious accident I’ve experienced was when my brother-in-law and I collided in front of a jeepney while he was teaching me how to drive a motorcycle. It was not the bruises we incurred that made it serious but rather the fact that I almost run over a kid who was walking across the road.

Safari for Windows – this is the default Mac browser from Apple. Looks like Firefox to me, minus the stability plus the Apple feel.

Yahoo! Music Jukebox – for playing Launchcast.

Visual Basic Codename “Orcas” Express Edition – slated for 2008 release, this is an early peek for .Net developers.
