Some people like freakin' 'bout money.

Some people freak anywhere.

Two things to report tonight:

1) The Goodwill closest to my apartment has the best used CD selection I've ever seen in a thrift store. Today I found the second copy of McLusky's McLusky Do Dallas CD there in under three months. I also found a copy of Opeth's My Arms, Your Hearse. Already owning both of these albums, you can imagine my disappointment that I couldn't take advantage of such awesomeness. I did, however, luck into a pristine copy of Cee Lo's Cee Lo Green Is The Soul Machine. I was pissed when I grabbed the CD that had Depeche Mode Music For The Masses on the spine, but was actually fucking Stone Temple Pilots.

2) Clearwire actually found a way to make themselves a WORSE ISP. A few nights ago I launched my browser to cruise Facebook in my usual stalker fashion, only to have every URL redirected to a message from Clear (formerly Clearwire) where I was informed that the only way to access the internet was to agree to an equipment upgrade to accommodate their network upgrade. Not optional. So, the new modem arrived in the mail today. Old modem: four to five bars of signal. New modem: one to two bars of signal. Allegedly this new network is twice as fast as the old, but I'll be fucked if I would know. I can't connect to most sites because it times out waiting for this shit new network to resolve an IP address to the domain name. I call bullshit. Speed test of the old network: 1.8 mbps. Speed test of the new network: 1 mbps. Thanks for the mandatory "upgrade", assholes.
