How times have changed

Post by George »

Looking through my file backups and came across this in a receipt.
Order #7890142
Placed Wednesday, August 09, 2000
32X/12X/10X REWRITABLE EIDE CD-RW W/SOFTWARE & MEDIA 1 $241.95
Especially noteworthy since I just ordered a new DVD burner Saturday for $25.

Oddly enough, that CD burner is actually in my main computer right now. Turns out to have better audio CD ripping properties than anything else I have.
I feel like I just beat a kitten to death... with a bag of puppies.

It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.
