The Irish

   Posted by: Kertap   in Utah

I discovered tonight a 5th irish person living in Utah. This was a weird one.

I went to Hobby Lobby - it’s a walmart for arts and crafts, it’s something - and as I was getting all my cool stuff rung up I noticed that Jo, who was doing the ringing, had an irish accent. She also noticed mine. We had a quick conversation as I paid for the stuff about Utah. She has lived here for 15 years, was originally from Dublin and retired last year. She worked a couple of nights a week for Gas Money and something for the grand kids.

Kinda makes me wonder if Utah is a bit of a black hole. Once you enter you can never leave again.

But they can be created if you have a Mac. All with the power of Apple Script. Mac Geekery has a post on Using Keyboard Shortcuts to Rate Songs in iTunes.

The above is a little hard to follow so here’s a quick rundown.
