The above picture is an update on how insane an idea it is to be out on the river tomorrow. Doug wants to kill us all. The high for Sunday, FYI, is even higher.
(R) And somewhat related, who on Earth at Apple thought it would be a good idea to have OS X save screenshots as PDFs and not allow the user to change that. Dumbest idea ever, considering PDFs aren't very useful if you aren't a professional graphics shop, in which case you are probably using specialized software anyway. Did the programmer dude responsible for that feature feel the need to justify his existence, so he decided guess what, I'll change the code from JPEG to PDF to show I've been doing something to earn my paycheck. No one will figure out it's locked into the OS (in Panther) until long after they've bought it...it's the perfect plan.
iPhoto can't even recognize the "picture". You have to go into Preview, export the file as a picture you can work with (.jpg, etc), and then you can open it in iPhoto or some other app that's designed, you know, to open pictures of various types except, of course, PDFs. Bizarre.
Give me back my JPEGs!!
