Your Friend, Kid Tiger

Playoff fever, baby

Saturday, September 23, 2006

We stopped at Napa Jack's, a new liquor store near Lake & France, on a recommendation from one of my passengers ("Man, they don't have any malt liquor or nothin' smaller than a fifth. You can't even leave that place without spending ten dollars.") I've never seen a store like this. The owner was very friendly, and he didn't even laugh when I asked him for a wine under $15 that would go well with both a quiche lorraine and a peppercorn steak. The prices are very good, and there's a giant walk-in beer cooler. He recommended a grenache/shiraz that Good Food also recommended this week. (In a wierd sort of 2006 style deja vu, later in the day I mentioned another podcast to the owner of Sunrise Cyclery when he mentioned that he was going to Vegas next week and I knew he wasn't talking about gambling.

We heard a rumor that Whole Foods has started to stock our beloved gDiapers, making it the second store to do so locally, but the first to price them anywhere near the price from the gDiapers online store. And with the availability of Whole Foods coupons being somewhat better than actual gdiapers manufacturer's coupons, I feel like we just struck gold.

It's true, iTunes 7 did cripple my computer. It's the reason we haven't had a new photo of the kid for awhile. It should be fixed soon and we've got a backlog just waiting to go up.

Morneau should be the MVP.

So from that statement, I'm taking I should wait awhile before I download itunes 7? I'll wait for your answer.

I can't report any problems with iTunes 7, other than incompatibility with whichever version of iScrobbler/last.fm I had on this thing (fixed). But you described my computer with your example of recent hardware. I like the 7.

I just upgraded (i had to to watch the office) and I haven't had any problems yet. other than the usual (my battery only lasts about 30 minutes now for some reason). I need to take it in.

Z-
You saw that you computer probably qualifies for the battery exchange program right? You just go to the website and enter in your info and supposedly, they will send you a new one.
