Now I know what it must feel like to be a MacBook Pro running Windows in Parallels.
Right in the midst of my iBob 1.0 re-programming, I find that from time-to-time I’m still getting the blue screen of death (oldBob 8.0). The good news is that now, my iBob side can just shut down that process and keep humming along…
…until some know-nothing, Prius-driving, Whole-Foods-shopping, fair-trade-coffee-drinking, mac-user calls and starts giving me crap about something they know nothing about – and I just want to tell them to go fu*k themselves….
[blue screen of death]
Sorry folks. That was – according to the blue screen – an “assertion error 504 – Bob is melting down about nothing” error.
Luckily the iBob process was able to shut the old behavior down before it got out of hand.
There’s still some bugs – but at least the overall shell is pretty much working.
Stay tuned…

Those of you who know me know that I’ve always been sort of a “glass half empty” kind of guy. Well, I’ve decided that those days are all over.
I’m going to re-invent myself. I’m going to become a kinder, gentler, new-and-improved me. I’m going to become huggie, squishy, lighter, and more well-rounded.
In short, I’m going to become iBob.
Since we already have everything else in the world that starts with “i” – I thought I would just brand myself as an iBob.
I’m ready to dump the old interface, wipe the hard drive, and start over. I will now be the ideal fashion accessory in addition to being the source of all useful information.
In fact, I’ve already lost weight, am going to the gym, have (basically) stopped smoking, I drink water (mostly) after dinner, I’m in bed (in general) at a decent hour all to prepare myself for iBob 1.0.
I’m going to test out iBob – before the public unveiling. I’m going on vacation in a couple of weeks to Hawaii with my extended in-laws and family to celebrate my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary. If I don’t crash (1 in 956,211) then I will officially roll out the iBob for public consumption.
Watch this space…
