Who has two thumbs and worked 8 hours of overtime today? Our 16 hour power outage went well, largely. But one or two pesky problems took a while to beat into submission.
I do. I'm sleepy and utterly lazy, now. I should do my grocery shopping for the week and think about dinner. I tried staring at my cats for a bit, hoping they would evolve to be skilled in the kitchen and cook for me, but they only wanted me to rub their bellies and massage them.
So, that's out. So much for all that positive thinking they talked about in "What the *bleep* do we know?"
In fact, they are looking at me as if I should prepare their dinner.
Right then, off to take care of chores and then find ways to goof off for what remains of my weekend.
Oh, and the geeky good news?

Bonus points if you know what movie is playing on the new screen. :-)

BULL-ISH
STATION-ARY
Oh, I've connected my PowerBook via S-video to my 15-yr-old 40" projection TV many times now. The only annoyance I've had is getting the sound output from the Mac since my TV is so ancient and I haven't felt like crawling behind my receiver for the audio stuff. Even though my laptop is 17" widescreen, I just "detect displays" then "turn on mirroring", then it adjusts the resolution & aspect ratio just dandy. Very helpful for the iPhoto slideshow of what I've done to my house so far when my 91-yr-old grandmother was visiting. :)
