August 21, 2003 

I was talking to roommates Weston and Charley tonight about my history with computers. everyone always thinks of me as tech savvy, and a guy who knows everything about them, but for some reason there are always stupid problems with my computer. I wouldn't min this, if I hadn't worked at Best Buy for two years and learned how many complete idiots have such consistent luck with computers, whereas I, who should know about these things always ends up just looking like a complete idiot when I try to do anything, like with setting up that wireless network, or installing a hard drive. This example was made up to exemplify the situation while talking to Charley and Weston. Some 45 year old chump who has never seen the inside of a computer before comes into Best Buy and says to me, "Hi there! Uh...I had a question. I just got a new hard drive yesterday and got it up and running and everything's working just fine, no problems there, but, uh...I was wondering.... Um. Geez. ...Nope, I guess thats it." annoyed face.
