Paranoia... paranoia... everybody's coming to get me!

I interrupted a dream with Theodore Cillian Murphy (OMGTEHHOT) to bring you these semi-not-really-earth-shattering thoughts from my planet news.


1. Entertainment Weekly describes the character of Seth Cohen thusly: ...Has a heterosexual man-crush on faux bro Ryan. That's verbatim, people. Mock not the gay!

2. Is there anyone else out there who can understand why when I realized there was a Jeff Buckley video was on the telly for the second time this week I dropped everything I was doing to go and look at it. It's not a new video (would be hard for somebody dead seven years), but dude, a Jeff video. On network telly?! ::stunned::

3. How do you change the default program that files open into? For example if I double click on a file and want it to open in Works (yick) and not Word (since my Word doesn't work, rant for another day), how do I change the mapping to do so?

4. Overheard on radio, random wanna-be-punk group shrieking "We don't live in America!" Response: Yes, that's all well and good, but you don't have to shriek about it.

5. I don't know who's programming VH1's Mega Hits channel, but wow, I want to buy them drinks: OK Go, The Chemical Brothers, Harvey Danger, Morcheeba, JEFF, The Verve, ...at one point it was the best of British Stool-Rock (go mid-90s!)

Changing the mapping depends on your operating system, but if you're running XP, you can right click on any document that maps to word, click Properties, and look at the General tab. There should be an option that says "Open with:" and then you can change that. Just make sure that the box labelled, "Always use the selected program to open this type of file" is ticked.

Thank you, sweetie!

Also, um, how goes the beta? ::bites nails::

Well, so far the cat is a really big fan - he's been sleeping on the pages. I just have to type the shit up for you: tomorrow, probably! Don't bite your nails, it ruins your manicure.
