Need some cool mac apps and Sunday Sk8 s
If anyone can suggest cool freeware apps for my new macbook pro, please suggest. On another note, I stopped by the Sunday Skateshop on Saturday. It was nice to see a unique shop bustling w/business. JP the owner was there, busting his butt putting grip-tape on the boards and having a great time...I wonder what the owner of Zumies or Phatman were doing...

Why not try Sourceforge or this site :::link:::

i don't have the link here, but there's a whole site of open source mac freeware that's pretty decent. it's called "opensourcemac.com" or something logical like that. There's tons of stuff out there though. just google it. Apple has a download page that usually lists decent stuff too.

I live right near there. It is hilarious. Every day there is a herd of kids with Sunday stickers on the skateboards they bought at Sunday. They are wearing their Sunday shirts and skating in front of Sunday. It is like viral advertising.

I'm glad that he got his own business going. It has been around for a while now, so maybe it is here to stay.

I hate QWERTY
Y'all know that QWERTY is a way to slow down typists so they don't jam typewriters, and DVORAK is an optimized keyboard layout that makes you type, like, 1000 times faster if you just take the time to learn it, which no one does, because we type on like 20 keyboards a day, half of which are on machines we don't own, so we can't change them to DVORAK, so we would become insanely schizophrenic having to switch mental modes over and over, and I think this is symptomatic of every problem that plagues humankind to this day.

wow... I never thought it was such a big problem. I can type pretty damn fast on QWERTY keyboards... hmm...
empireoflight - 09/28/07 07:18
Haha, I was exaggerating a little about the 20 keyboards, it's probably more like 4 or so...but I think typing is the most common form of communication today and it's kinda crazy that at the root of it is a crippled layout.

Sorry about that. I was using the wrong keyboard. Nice avatar.

What is more wrong: that you have to type on twenty different keyboards a day, or that you have ten keyboards of your own?

Never heard of the DVORAK keyboard. Love his compositions though.
