(no subject)

I saw Bill Clinton stumping for Hillary Clinton today. Once he arrived - two and a half hours late - he gave a quite persuasive speech. The healthcare and the 'No Child Left Behind Act' admendments were in particular quite shiny. And recognizing that corn is a poor source of bio-fuel, and farming waste would be a better source ( like the corn stocks from the corn we already grow. )

Though I'm still probably voting for Obama, but now I just really, really, really want a Obama/Clinton ticket. I think they'd make a good political partnership as their ideologies are the same, but their methods of getting their ideologies accomplished are dissimilar and complementary.

I mean, when you vote the same way 95% of the time, it's pretty damm hard to see where those differences are. And when you co-sponsor the majority of each other's bills. Ect.

AND I just got my new DVD/CD burner, and I'm about to install it. Hopefully everything will go well - it's not like I can break the one that's in Leo already any more than it already is.

I win!

I have installed the optical drive. Once I realize the front cover of the case swung off as well as the side - though with completely diffrent ways of doing so - it worked out fine. Very snappy opening and closing too!

It only took... an hour? Most of that time was spent trying to get the old drive out of the computer.

So I can now play and burn DVDs on Leo. Happy, happy time. Especially with Teresa acting all wonky.
