Because through out history, men have worn un-bifurcated garments. Because if women had an appendage hanging between their legs we guarantee you they wouldn’t be wearing pants. Freedom, and increased mobility. You only go around once, so why shouldn’t you be as comfortable as possible. All men deserve air conditioning in the summer. You will chafe no more. No more adjust, right side, left side! Say goodbye to wedgies. A word about the pockets: Unlike pants, the Utilikilt’s pockets are only sewn down on top, so that they move with the garment but not with your leg.

This last Friday was the second day of my trip to Boston. The agenda was very simple and yet had all the ingredients to an unforgetable day. Having swapped a few emails with Miguel De Icaza where I convinced him to meet me and give me a tour of Ximian’s office in Cambridge, we had finally settled I’d meet him during his lunch break. My friend Vinny and I left his house around 11am figuring it would take us about 30-40 minutes to get there but we were not counting on getting lost on the way.

So here I am standing in front of the Gnome booth. Vinny and I got here around 1-1:30pm thanks to his awsome navigational skills but were able to see every single booth. The environment was very laid back and not as “corporate” as last year’s event in NYC. We managed to ask a few questions, got a lot of cool stuff, even a complementary made-in-front-of-you latte' at the CA’s booth, and just enjoyed it all.

I officially screwed up my site!!! I completely fucked it up!!! It turns out the instructions on how to upgrade WordPress to version 1.5 are incorrect and I ended up deleting ALL of my posts! Hopefully I can get a copy of the most recent backup, assuming there is one to get! I know some of you are probably saying: “Hey idiot!!! Did you remember to back up everything before upgrading?

No word about getting a copy of my database backup yet… In the meantime, here’s a (mug) shot of my at my so called “prison cell.” Been here for almost 6 months and haven’t gotten used to living in this “cubicle forest” yet. The inhabitants are a bit edgy and can turn to cannibals without any warning. Boy, am I glad that Tux is here to protect me (that’s him sitting atop my pc).

So here I am, counting the minutes until I get the hell out of work and head down to Laguardia Airport where I’ll be boarding my plane to Boston. My friend Vinny is picking me up for what seems to be a great weekend of geekness. Tomorrow we’re going to check out the exhibition floor at this year’s Linux World Expo, Boston Edition. I’m very excited about this for I will be there with my good friend… Have you ever been to some type of event (it could be softball) that you really enjoy but in the company of someone who doesn’t really like it and only accompanied you after putting up with weeks of you begging him/her to go with you?
