today is tuesday 27 march 2007.

spring break . . . and on my schedule--absolutely nothing! reinstalled suse 10.1--had some annoyances from the the last reinstall, namely mplayer not working, yast not installing packages, etc. got everything running in about 24 hours this time.

aside from that, nothing really going on.

today is monday 12 march 2007.

so yesterday was the day we're supposed to set clocks ahead an hour. a few questions . . . like why is the ms outlook fix 8mb? can we say bloated? why did frontier airlines have a near meltdown--flights were incorrectly scheduled, but guess what--an hour.

how about the fix that is bound not to crash anything? instead of dealing with all the headaches with auto update--why don't we just check the time and make necessary adjustments? life is so complicated for some . . .

colorado symphony hip yesterday. and no, no problems starting on time. dvorak symphony 6 was pretty hip. so was marin alsop conducting. so was fill-in pianist chris o'rielly filling in for the injured jeffrey kahane--though the kahane (current conductor)/alsop (conductor laureate) pairing with would have been indeed hip.

before the concert, a bunch of cellos played in the lobby. kinda weird--i think they were a group of six cellos playing arranged rock songs. again--on cellos nonetheless.

so throughout the concert my phone is buzzing with spring training scores. not that i don't like baseball--but i really don't care about results that don't mean a thing.

so it's the 12th day of march. and no snow flakes in sight. march the snowiest month of the year--right.
