Blackberry Winter and Idiot Summer

Why is it so cold? Must be 50 degrees outside. Let’s get these weather terms straight:

  • Blackberry Winter – cool weather right around the end of May
  • Dogwood Winter – cool weather in April when the dogwoods are blooming
  • Indian Summer – warm weather in the middle of October
  • Dog Days – hot weather during the summer
  • Idiot Summer – cool song by the Gin Blossoms
  • Blackberry Summer – a term I just made up just to confuse you.

Finally got my jeffwhittle.com t-shirt from copyleft.net. Took them over a month to get it to me. And their tracking program still says it’s processing. Anywho I’ll plan on wearing it this summer to the various summer camps to promote this website.
I don’t know what it is, but I can’t get to this webpage. Blogger and other traceroutes get to it just fine. Friends are able to view it too. But Comcast is being a pain about it. Their technical support offered only minimal help. They blamed it on the webpage provider.
My dad’s computer as a big nasty virus on it. Something about the icons moving around all the time when you try to click on them. Leave it to my dad to gleefully install a virus by clicking on any and all attachments he receives via email. Makes me wonder who or what writes these virus programs. Is it one of those introverted computer nerds that gets some type of joy when he discovers the virus has spread all around the earth? Or is it Norton themselves? My coworker had a theory that Norton and McAfee has a bunch of virus coders locked away in a back room writing viruses (viri?) to insure the company’s existance.
Oh and don’t worry about the Rooter Radio Station’s webpage vanishing forever. I’ve archived it on my hard drive for future reference. I figure sooner or later they’re going to take it down.
