one of my closest friends who graduated from ASU was the one who formally introduced me to linux, the linux users group, and basically an entirely new realm of nerdiness during my freshman year. he sent me this yesterday from xkcd and truer words have never been spoken drawn.
last winter, rob was staying in boone for the night to do some presentations around campus and crashed at my apartment. i had recently installed (as in that day) fedora 8 on my new laptop and had gotten it working as a dual boot with vista (pain in the freaking ass). let’s just say, wireless with broadcom drivers and brand spanking new fedora 8 was not the easiest feat in the world, either. and i pulled an all-nighter while he slept all nice and cozy at my apartment. he woke up and i’m guessing his thoughts were along the same lines as “I’m too late…” :geek: despite the huge amount of sleep i’ve lost, i couldn’t say thank you enough for getting me to where i am now.
thanks to you, rob, i’m now able to break shit on my own, pull an all-nighter, and fix it all by myself. :wink:
this better pay off. :happy: and by pay off i mean i better get a sweet job. and cookies.
