See that guy? He's smiling because.... I got the new mb into my system without a hickup... and when I woke up today it hadn't rebooted. :D (it's a big deal to me, ok! :D freaking computer has been driving me around the bend... so now I'm praying the thing is still good by the time I get home from work. If not... it'll be time to replace the video card.)
Oh, and he's smiling because it's friday... it's sunny, crazy ass beautiful outside, my wife is unbelievably beautiful and loves me, my kids are healthy and happy, and I have a heart so filled with love for the world around me that I half expect to be locked up at any moment. :D
I know ... I know... yer prol'y all gonna be jaded by corto and his ever loven outlook - gasp, talking in the third person again - ... try not to get too jaded. I have been down.. Believe me... I know what down is all about... I have grown to well and truley appreciate how great it is to not be down there. k'mere... walk with me a bit... maybe we can enjoy the view from here together.
There's a Police Chiefs Association... news in itself, in Canada... and they have made a formal recommendation to all "officers in the field" to stop arresting people caught with 30 or fewer grams of pot on them... They'll still confiscate the pot (because, you know, Cops get to smoke the best pot) and they'll still write up the incident, but in glorious Canada, the Surpeme Court has wisely let deadline after deadline slip in establishing pot law precidence. Cool.
