Is it me, or does Firefox simply suck? I absolutely love the features and goodies that come with it, but it regularly crashes on every computer on which I’ve installed it. My favorite is when it just disappears, and then I reopen the application and I get a guilty little message that tells me “Firefox closed abrubtly last time,” and gives me the option to restore my previous session. My second favorite is when I’m told firefox is already running, and so I can’t open it… because when I close it, apparently it doesn’t always close…

I’m at the Westin in Southfield, near Detroit, and I’m doing a bit of work, with the television on the Discovery Channel. The single most idiotic show I’ve ever seen is on: A Haunting. What is wrong with people? I want to believe in “something else” as much as the next guy, but why do so many people go to such lengths to convince themselves and create fantasies? Seriously, this is the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen – so bad it makes me want to flip the screen off over and over again. Double seriously, EVP is the uber-studpidest thing ever… well, enough about that. Listen to the Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe – they do rants much better than I.

I’m going to blog at length about Detroit, as this is my 6th week here in about 2 months. I have a lot of observations, but I have to put off writing. I feel like going downstairs for a cigarette.
