Deep Thought

True love is giving away the last piece of your favorite chocolate candy even though you’re going through PMS.

Presentation Remote Solved

Instead of forking over over \$30 for a new remote to use for presentations, I found mira a little System Preference pane that lets me map the buttons on my brand new MacBook Pro’s remote to other applications.
