09:32 am: nutricion facts
I'm staring at the nutrition facts label for caffeinated Celestial Seasoning's tea. The only things listed ad Calories, Total Fat, Sodium, Total Carb. (including sugar), and Protein. The serving size is 1 tea bag, and all nutrients are listed as 0.

Does allowing companies to choose small enough sizes to round down nullify the effectiveness of the nutrition facts label?

Why is caffeine not listed?

01:14 am: George Carlin died a few days ago of a heart failure.

Although I didn't ever get to see one of his shows live, he was someone I looked up to in many regards. One think I admire is that he did what he loved until the end. If you haven't seen his very recent full hour special this year "it's bad for ya", it's one of his best acts if not the best.

12:14 pm: I really need to reinstall Mac OS. I thought this wouldn't happen with mac (and apparently it only happens to my mac) - but just like Windows, things degrade over time and eventually you need to reinstall. Actually most of the things I heard about Mac I've found to not apply to me. They say mac's are not good for games, but great for multimedia - it's been the opposite for me.

Nonetheless Leopard comes out soon and I can't wait. We're thinking about doing a family pack. The price of one is 130 (based on Tiger figures) but a 5 license family pack is 200. I think Jonas and I and probably Brian are in already - post if your interested. What's funny is a little over a year ago not a single person I knew owned a mac.

You have no idea how much I want to just drop all my classes and projects and fall into a coma of ultimate blissfulness, not waking up until direct google uplink brain implants become cheap.

Also I think we released the Electropy trailer a bit soon. We have all these interested people and a game thats not gonna be finished for who knows how long. Nonetheless, most of the feedback has been very positive and that really is encouraging. But, it puts way more pressure to get stuff done - and I need more pressure like I need a giant infected brain tumor.

It's cool though. I'm just fed up.

ps what's up with Chinese grammer?
