"How do you pack grease?"
I'm now onto "American Chopper" in this evening's television schedule and I gotta say this...poor Mikey. All he wants to do is learn the business and he seems to have such a hard time fitting in with his family. I've decided I don't care for Jr., he's an unforgiving dick, Paul Sr. is the Daddy of all Daddies and Mikey is definitely the odd man out. I'm not sure what the background on this family situation is, but I aim to find out.
I went to Borders after work today to pick up my next installment of Harry Potter and a tasty Linux book to help me along my journey. While I was there I also picked up the new Superjoint Ritual CD. Aside from the fact that every song but one started with the obligatory 1-2-3-4 let's-start-the-song-already, it's not so bad. Only one song jumped into my head for the remainder of the evening, but I suspect the rest will grow on me. Hank III is pretty damn talented and between his country, punk and death metal endeavors, he's coming along quite nicely.
Last thing tonight dear reader, is you will notice the comments box is now resizable. Ha! Easiest damn thing I did all day. Thanks to vince for not straight out sharing this 'programming secret' and letting me find it out on my own. In the immortal words of my father, "Look it up."
Comments
I would like to say that not telling you was part of some kind of "teaching you how to fish, not giving you a fish" thing, but in all honesty, I flat out forgot you asked me about it.
But cool beans. Now I can resize with impunity.

I am 100% amazed Vince didn't try turning this into a lesson, even if he didn't mean it to be one.

Forgot I asked about it, vince? I believe you stated you had to get back to the red cape wearing Brotherhood and get back to me. :)
That's cool. It all worked out for me in the end!

crowdpleazr, I'm surprised too. He's such a preachy fucker you'd think he was trying to school me :)
I kid, I kid...

Are you guys kidding? I worked with Vince as a mentor for a little while (stop laughing please) and he practically pointed at the fishing pole, said "Pole.", then pointed at the water, said "Pond.", and then walked away.
Preachy? Yes. Teachy? No.

Vince teaches by omission and always claims it is for your own good. That's all I meant. Once you figure out the pole goes in the water he'll come over and preach to you about what you just learned, using generous stares at his cigarette to emphasize his point. It gives him that asshole-chic glow :)
Now watch as Vince "teaches" me to keep my firewall more up to date and flood bombs my home network :)

It was for your own good, and you are better off because of it.
