Mohawk pictures

Here are some pictures of me from LSU weekend when I was sporting the orange-and-blue mohawk. It's good to know that when the need arises, I can pull off the mohawk.

I f***ing hate windows XP sp2

My post has been changed.

Where I was going to post about how painful it is to write a statement of purpose, now I am going to bash XP SP2.

For those of you who have not gotten the new Windows XP service pack, consider yourselves lucky.

Yes it provides a lot of much needed security fixes. Yes it is good that it alerts you if you don't have a viruscan or firewall or windows updates installed. But the changes that they made to Internet Explorer make me want to throw the whole f***ing service pack away.

The reason is shown by the following example of what just happened:

I typed up my new blog that I wanted to post. It was written spur-of-the-moment and was not drafted out prior to typing it into the form box. After completing, I decided to spell-check using a spell-checker provided by http://www.blogger.com/. So I clicked the button and Internet Explorer gave it's warning title box that says something to the effect of "A pop-up has been blocked, click here to do something about it." So I clicked the box and selected "Temporarily allow pop-ups for this site." This was where it all went to shit.

Internet Explorer then, in its infinite wisdom, reloaded the page that I was just working on and erased my entire blog. In addition to that, it didn't even load the f***ing spell-check window that it was supposed to.

If anybody knows the whereabouts of the numskull that coded this feature into IE, let me know so that I can personally thank him for wasting food, water, and oxygen that could have been going towards someone else that deserves it.

Peacefully yours,
Jae
