vivaldi! now i knew of a guy long ago,
who claimed you could get him to sign a blank cheque
if he were in the middle of listening to the four seasons.

yup! but... how do i ever wake up,
if my laptop never boots again
after lulling me to sleep and executing an auto-shutdown?
what a nightmarish scenario that would be
if i did not have a biological override to that.

am using ubuntu 9.04 on a macbookpro 5,1
and ubuntu boots over rEFIt that then takes it to grub.
