you know you're a nerd when.........
you leave your belt at home on accident, your pants are too big and you use a cat5 cable in place of your belt to hold up your pants.

olympics
i loved the winter games this year. i never watched the games this much (high definition helped) but i have to say that i'm a big fan now. torin, italy did a wonderful job.
there's so much history, comradery, competition, and young unknowns rising to the moment into greatness. it's so wonderful.
p.s. canada's iceman presentation thing sucked.

olympic spirit
Source: (http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/sports/special_packages/olympics/13903554.htm)though last, it's great that he finished.
TURIN, Italy - The snow, which came down in a blinding swirl, was sticky and slow. The wax was all wrong, attracting moisture to the skis of Drexel professor Prawat Nagvajara in yesterday's 15-kilometer Olympic cross-country event.
And then there was the ski pole that broke with about 5 kilometers left.
It broke when he fell.
It was not his first fall.
"I fell a few times on the downhills," said the lone member of the Thailand Olympic team, who finished last.
"The Belarus team gave me an extra pole," he said.
And he finished, which was all he hoped to do, after not finishing in the 30K at Salt Lake City in 2002. That, and avoid being lapped, which for the most part, he also did.

finally, media center
my htpc (home theater pc, or media center) is finally finished for the most part. i like to call it my tv ipod. here's the specs:
amd sempron 3100+
asus k8n motherboard
corsair value 1 gig memory
samsung 250 gb sata 1.0 @ 7200rpm
evga nvidia 6800xt 128mb agp
antec overture 2
dvico fusion5 hdtv gold
lite-on dvd-rw
zalman 7700 alcu cpu heatsink/fan
arctic cooling nv silencer 5 r3
windows xp professional
i think it ends up to be around $900. i'm not too entirely happy with the case and motherboard i picked because it limited my other hardware options by a lot. the case ended up too short and i would've done much better with a pci-e motherboard instead of an agp.
i need to select which dvr/pvr software i want to use (not using windows media center) and whether or not i will install nvidia's purevideo decoder. i'll be connecting to the tv with dvi and the sound system by optical digital toslink. i might install a second hdtv tuner if i feel the need. the zalman and the nv silencer makes the system whisper quiet; i can hardly hear it which is freaking awesome.
so with this setup, i should get all the local stations in unmolested high def. when i say unmolested, i mean the signal is uncompressed and is in its full glory. usually, cable and satellite high def signals are digitally compressed before they are sent to your cable box so you're not getting the original quality. think of it as an original photo versus a gif or jpeg equivalent. so believe it or not, the free over-the-air hd signal is better than the hd signal you pay for.
i can record/skip/play shows like tivo. i get a full program guide. i can play dvds in 480p and 5.1 ac3. i can play divx/xvid/etc that i "download" from "places" on the "internet." and i won't have to pay comcast a dime.
i'll post pix soon.

today's kids are dumb enough as is
Source: (http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=10000088&sid=aRd4_ImN8_1w&refer=culture)let's not lower the ceiling any lower.
President George W. Bush proposed a 13 percent cut in funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, seeking to reduce spending that has already won congressional approval and prompting a protest from the agency.
A fiscal 2007 spending plan that Bush sent to Congress today cuts $53.5 million from $400 million in grants to public TV and radio stations from CPB, the agency that funds public broadcasting. The budget, released publicly today, also cuts $50 million from $400 million approved for 2008.
The reductions ``disappointed'' CPB Chief Executive Officer Patricia Harrison, who said in a statement she plans to join public broadcasters as they try to persuade congressional budget writers to restore the funds. A lobbying campaign last year succeeded in reversing similar cuts.
``The Bush White House is taking an axe to help chop off Big Bird's head and turn Elmo out into the streets,'' said Jeff Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, a public-interest group. ``The administration wants to starve the Public Broadcasting Service and National Public Radio, curtailing their ability to critically report the news.''
