Gamerz Delight

If you're a gamer this video will interest you. Also if you have a mac it will interest you. I downloaded something called "CrossOver" for my mac and it allows me to run windows programs insideinside OSX and I don't have to buy a windows license or install windows. It was super easy to install however you do need your OSX installation disc that came with your mac etc. Only takes a few moments. I can run pretty much any program I want, however I only tried it with Steam and Counter-Strike and it ran wonderfully, considering. I never even knew that was possible. It's not an emulator either (which would make it super slow).

Zimm

Now I am going to admit something to you my dear knitters, I never knew that much about Elizabeth Zimmermann, I didn't know she was Meg Swansens mother. Apparently she is the queen of seamless knitting. I really am enjoying the book as it is full of wonderful little stories and it's all just very personal and sweet. I got the book above after seeing Quidity's Baby Suprise jacket at the holiday SnB gathering. Now I want to knit one! I have another coworker due to have a baby so i was thinking it would a cute present and a fun knit as it's nearly seamless.

Sahara
Still slow to work on this, it's not slow but I just haven't knit much on it so really it's amazing it's as far along as it is. The body from the top is nearly 13" long already.

Doh Dee Doh

I am about to join in the round, hard to photograph such a dark yarn! Once I join though, the body is going to be done in a snap.

I'm about the same place with my Sahara. I'm just too easily distracted from stockinette knitting. But once I join in the round, I hope to get it going. I can't wait to do the borders and neckline!

Funny I never thought of you as the first person shooter type! I tend to lean towards MMORPG's myself.
