Stupid windows xp! My windows explorer is only corrupted for my work profile, and not for anything else. How screwy is that?
If I log on as the administrator to my work laptop, windows explorer works. If I log on as myself into the corporate network, windows explorer doesn't work.

Bad morning at work.
First, a way too early conference call that I kept wondering I was asked to attend in the first place.
Then my windows explorer quit working, which means I can't search for documents. I tried to troubleshoot on my own but with no luck. Finally, I called the IT support desk at corporate and come to find out I have to reinstall Windows XP or at least repair it.
Damn! Three hours of troubleshooting only to come to the conclusion that I should just reinstall my operating system. Stupid windows XP! The IT guy is overnighting a cd to me, so he can walk me through the reinstallation or repair tomorrow.
I hate this! I hate computer problems.

One thing that I feel really bad about that happened during this mayoral election, is my loss of trust with The San Francisco Bay Guardian.
I used to really respect their reporting and their viewpoints, but this last election has opened my eyes to their incrediable bias and myopic view of the world. They would value principals above common sense and people any day.
Oh well. Like I said earlier, what goes around comes around and with events in the world spinning faster and faster, what would take years for something to come around is now happening in months if not quicker.
Never again will I ever give any credence to The San Francisco Bay Guardian political recommendations nor their political articles and commentaries. They're way too biased to be read for fair reporting purposes, and I'm not interested in reading a propaganda rag.
The San Francisco Bay Guardian gives utter and complete evidence to the conservative claim of a liberal media bias. This goes for the San Francisco Examiner, The San Francisco Sentinel and The San Francisco Call as well.

So I received a call at my work number for one of those infamous KPIX Channel 5 telephone survey polls.
The question was what grade would I give soon to be former mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown for his tenure as mayor.
I wanted to give Willie a D, but I gave him a C. The man was a nightmare and practically ruined San Francisco, but the city is still here and although bruised and damaged, it's still alive and kicking.
Willie's biggest damage to the city was his lack of policy or direction during the dotcom boom, but everyone got that one wrong including the media.
People just got greedy, and greedy people don't make intelligent decisions. What's worse, greedy people think the wealth is going to last forever and it never ever does. Money does that 99.9% of people, so in that regard Willie was average and deserved a C grade for running the city by the bay.
