Oh, man...

Australian women's cyclist killed, five others injured during training ride. This is just... there are no words. It's the sort of thing that happens to commuters, not world class cyclists. Or maybe not. :(

Joining the Century of the Reciprocating Weasel...

So, thanks to the loan of the disks by [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], I finally got around to the operating system upgrade I've been needing for about the last year now. Well, actually, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] did, overcoming his dislike of Macs. :) We likes the Phil, we do. Any way, I have Internet Explorer running for only as long as it takes Phil to get me a copy of Firefox (it's running slow, but hey, my LJ pages aren't all smooshed together any more!), I've upgraded to the latest version of AIM (will have to test buddy chat at tomorrow's Persephone plotting session), and I've managed to transfer my music over to the new version of iTunes. On the failure rate, the Apple Works CD [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] made up for me doesn't work, so no Word (I have Text Editor as a stand-by) and I've yet to try and find where my gaphics programs are for the purposes of icon making. Oh, and I have the Eurovision Song Contest version of mutliple languages loaded in here, which Phil is itching to remove as soon as he finds out how. Because honestly, who needs Brazilian Portuguese on their computer, unless they are of course from Brazil?

And yay, worked out how to import my mail stuff. Hopefully including address books since those are a bitch to rebuild.

So yeah, me with the upgrade. Here's hoping it solves a lot of issues.
