something about an ionizer

my brother bought 2 air ionizers for our cars. they are now installed in both vehicles. it just occurred to me. how do we know if it works? it just sits there! and we can't possibly see effects like, "oh ever since i installed this in my car 2weeks ago, i am now more alert while driving!" kind of bullshit. we won't really know if the piece of plastic they sold us (which by the way, sticks into the cigarette lighter socket) is not just a piece of plastic with 2 green LEDs staring back at us? ironic it seems, that we would have to trust the vendor on this...

my brother was at home to clear leave today. and we did a bit of remodelling of his bedroom. making way/space for -ahem- another baby. not that they /have/ it on the way... just making _preparations_ *cough* so we shifted 2 of his wardrobes up into the tv room (one floor up mind you... took my dad, brother and myself to carry 2 halves of the wardrobe cupboards up the 2 flight of stairs...) that fits nicely (barely) with the rest of the furni. his bed got rotated and more of his furni in his room got rearranged. and he threw out his mini hifi system, to which i took possession of *bwahaha* and is now in my room, replacing a retro-ish big radio thing with that mini hifi system. with proper speakers! well yes i know i sound pathetic with that retro looking radio (i'll post them pics in a while) but hey i collect tons of rubbish. my parents are trying to avoid calling me a karang guni. and they rather i'd dispose more of my nonsense asap.

and to top it off today, i'd installed ubuntu linux on my ex-win98se box! it's amusing to have linux running because all this while i'd been working on purely windows environment. but it's a good change i suppose. will tinker with it a while.

*you can only trust me on this...*
