today joe and i recieved a postcard:
Hello Mr. and Mrs. Bernstein, Hope all is well back in the USA... So far I haven't been killed, so I'm pretty happy about that. :) I'll see you guys soon! Hope there is snow! - Me
it was postmarked from pisa italy, with an italian stamp, and addressed to "The Bernsteins" at our address.
joe and i went to the apple store to get them to try to convince me to get a tibook. no dice :/
upon returning home, after lilo came up i got a CRC error booting the kernel. the next try X locked up when i logged in. next time CRC error. next gnome-session crash.
sigh.
