So... turned 60 just about two weeks ago, been busy since.
Put aside the "to-do" list (mostly) for the day.
Catching up some today and find myself firing up the iTV Shirley got me, deciding to download/watch "Battlestar Galactica ( someone recommended it... I remember the original, with Loren Green! ), playing some Bill Evans/Jim Hall while waiting, multitasking by reading BusinessWeek :

I may not IM often, don't have MySpace/FaceBook pages (yet?) but do try to stay "in tune" with some trends.
Note that all of the above (music, video downloading, photo editing) was with my old G4 Powerbook, although the clock cycles did get a bit overwhelmed from time to time ... upgrade time???
