I upgraded it to 4GB RAM and put in a 320G 7200 RPM drive (my MBP only had a 200G drive). It's actually faster than the MBP with the new drive. I replaced my MacBook Pro with a new MacBook.

His random smiles, eye rolling (especially after the mention of fox news), and sticking out his tongue were cringilyy hilarious. That's not to say I'm making light of the election and how serious it is, but for some reason that kind of stuff just cracks me up. It's like, Bush would be a really funny and hilarious guy in his blunders.... if he weren't president. That’s funny, I actually found McCain hilarious.

McCain's smirks, grimaces, laughs, and eye rolls while Obama was speaking really irritated me. A couple of times when McCain was speaking I couldn't restrain myself from cursing & screaming BULL$**T.

]]> Comment on A cry for Christmas cheer by Thomas GvL http://www.aaronfreedman.com/blog/2007/12/21/a-cry-for-christmas-cheer/#comment-9683 Thomas GvL Fri, 21 Dec 2007 23:16:18 +0000 http://www.aaronfreedman.com/blog/2007/12/21/a-cry-for-christmas-cheer/#comment-9683 Interesting... you Americans are so caught up about everything :P I'm not aware of such a debate in Canada. Québec specifically has been traditionally very catholic, but since the '60s, we've become the least-church-attending province and for the generations born since then, active religious people are the minority. Despite all of this, the tradition of Christmas is still very strong and nearly all non-believers (that I know of) put up a tree and gives presents and eat too much and everything. So while the religious part of it is basically gone, the tradition is still very much there. And the other religions don't seem to be bothered by it.

How is this any different from the tabloidization you fear? Honestly, this is below even the NY Post's standards. The WSJ already is a conservative paper. Leslie Hill, who is only involved in this because of blood-line inheritance, was not noble. She was petulant, immature and a hypocrite. Let us know when she sells her shares. Which she won't.
