The hinge busted on the TiBook laptop yesterday. Duct tape secures it pretty well, at least while it's open. There are little wires in the hinge that connect the LCD panel to the logic board, so I'm very aware that if the panel slips just right, it could sever the wires and make the screen useless. The computer has ceased to be a laptop from here on out, and will be used as is, on a desktop. It's been a good run in laptop mode, but I'm definitely not going to be shelling out $350 to get the hinge replaced. It's just not worth it in my eyes. In the picture, I'm currently surfing Eisley's Tales of Trolleywood journal; they've just finished recording their second record with Richard Gibbs of Oingo Boingo fame.

As a note, I hope to set aside a bit of time every week to post a picture, recapping something, anything. This'll do just fine as a number one. Hopefully this'll work out ok, as this weblog has kind of turned kind of dormant.
