Yesterday I went to a lunch at Buck&#8217;s in Woodside with <a href=\"http:\/\/radio.weblogs.com\/0001011\/\">Scoble<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/weblog.siliconvalley.com\/column\/dangillmor\/\">Dan Gillmor<\/a> and some other geeks. Definitely interesting, although Scoble&#8217;s son seemed completely bored out of his mind the whole time. Following that, I had a 3 hour battle with Katie Hafner&#8217;s computers and trying to install Panther and MS Office 2004, I settled with one copy of MS Office X (2001) on one machine and that&#8217;s it. My other CDs didn&#8217;t work, and one computer decided that it didn&#8217;t want to run Word. Of course, it ran Excel, PowerPoint and everything else fine, but not Word. <\/p>\n<p>Last night I cuddled up to the final episode of Enterprise (Season 3) that I downloaded and watched. Right now I&#8217;m 99.5% done with getting Seasons 1 and 2, so I can watch the last four from the first season and all of the second season that I missed when I was abroad. (Yes, I&#8217;m a geek.)<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and one other thing totally unrelated. When I was getting on BART the other day, I saw a guy dressed in sneakers, jeans, a button-up shirt (why don&#8217;t we have a word for this in English, like <i>chemise<\/i>?), a fleece vest, and a tie. It just really didn&#8217;t work. It&#8217;s almost as if he was going to wear a suit, got half undressed, and forgot about the shirt and tie and then put on casual clothes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Things are pretty quiet, given that both Boyk is in LA and Rachel 40 miles to the south.
