Georgia On My Mind

Somehow, I don't think Ray Charles had this on his mind when he composed this song.

Anyway, here's a question. Let's say you're a parent, and you catch your 15-year old daughter giving consensual oral sex to a 17-year old guy. How would you have punished this fiend? Would you call his parents and tell them to keep his son away from your daughter? Would you beat him up? Lecture him on the values of Good Manners and Right Conduct?

Genarlow Wilson was sentenced 11 years––a mandatory 10 years in prison and 1 year on probation––for being caught with his pants down. Georgia law can be harsh on them hormonally-charged teenagers.

Macs: 4, PCs: 1

That's the score here at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Tomas Morato. There are two Powerbooks (including mine) and two MacBooks (one black, one white). The lone PC is a Dell laptop whose owner is camped out in one of the darker corners of CBTL, obviously hiding his less attractive piece of machinery.

He he.

There may be hope for Macs in this country yet.

The bad news? It won't be available in Asia till 2008. Damn.
