<p>Not this time (he he he).<span id="more-850"></span></p>
<p>I found a really awesome screensaver that mimics an OSX Kernel Panic.  For those of you who don&#8217;t know what this is, a Kernel Panic is the Mac equivalent of a Windows Blue Screen of Death.  This is where the computer crashes completely and needs to be manually powered off and rebooted.</p>
<p>Yeah.  So I installed it on the recording computer at the studio, late on the night of March 31st.  And waited for the fun to begin.</p>
<p>We had a recording session the next morning with a band.  Jessica was running it.</p>
<p>She rebooted the computer once and almost did a second time before she figured out what was going on <img src='http://heftelfamily.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>
<p>It was pretty classic.  I must say, I felt quite proud of myself.  My only regret was not being there to see her reaction.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re interested downloading the screensaver, it can be found <a title="Kernel Panic Screensaver" href="http://doomlaser.com/kernel-panic-screensaver/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In Florida, an atheist created a case against the upcoming Easter and Passover Holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against Christians, Jews and observances of their holy days. The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized days.</p>
<p>The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the passionate presentation by the lawyer, the judge banged his gavel declaring,&#8221;Case dismissed!&#8221;</p>
<p>The lawyer immediately stood objecting to the ruling saying, &#8220;Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and others. The Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, yet my Client and all other atheists have no such holidays.&#8221;</p>
<p>The judge leaned forward in his chair saying, &#8220;But you do. Your client, counsel, is woefully ignorant.&#8221;</p>
<p>The lawyer said, &#8220;Your Honor, we are unaware of any special observance or holiday for atheists.&#8221;</p>
<p>The judge said, &#8220;The calendar says April 1st is April Fools Day. Psalm 14:1 states, &#8216;The fool says in his heart, there is no God.&#8217; Thus, it is the opinion of this court, that if your client says there is no God, then he is a fool. Therefore, April 1st is his day. Court is adjourned.</p>
