Yay, me. I finally got around to fixing it so I can get the messages from my Charter account without getting piles of crappy spam. I’ve had the Charter address for eight years, and although I’d never give it out on any web site or to anyone I don’t know all that well, the combination […]

I finally got up the nerve to change some of the default iPhone and installed app icons that I didn’t like. I’d seen themes and knew I could change those, but there was always something about a theme that I didn’t like, and since it was usually some of the icons, it made just as […]

I have a Facebook account. I don’t use it, and indeed, it was created in a moment of semi-drunken weakness, years after L. told me I should have a Facebook. I’d known about Facebook since it was available only to students, but never saw the need to create an account. One night when I was […]

All wireless companies arse-rape their customers, but only in North America do they do it without even giving us a drop of Astroglide. When P. set my phone plan up for me, he knew exactly how I’d use an iPhone. He put limited minutes, unlimited data, and and a reasonable SMS plan on, knowing that […]

For the love of $deity, people–read, or I’m going to start billing you for the inhalers I need when your ridiculous mistakes cause a laughing fit that gives me trouble breathing. You might want to stop for a moment and think about, or perhaps do some research into, how diseases have ravished human populations for […]

I was a little concerned when I realised at 1815h that P. still hadn’t called to tell me he was on his way home. He always does that because we play a game with the cat. The cat loves daddy, so P. calls to tell me he’s on his way, then calls again just as […]

Shiny new, all updated to the latest firmware and newly freed from its prison! 🙂 I was even able to reuse the Gelaskin, though I did put on a new screen protector because those don’t take too well to re-application. Blogged from my iPhone. Hehe.

…because it amuses me. Normally, I don’t pay too much attention to these things because for the most part, they’re kinda lame, but the expression on this guy’s face just fucking cracks me up. 😆 Oh yeah…I need to remember to ask L. about the Uillean pipes. 😛

I’ve always loved the way the window focus (in Gnome, at least–don’t remember KDE) seemed to “kinda follow” the mouse pointer. It doesn’t change window focus, but if I mouse over to another window to do something, I don’t have to click once to get focus, and then again to do whatever it was that […]

If you don’t know the difference between “then” and “than”, I’m going to stop reading as soon as you use the wrong one. I don’t care if you wrote the modern incarnation of The Brothers Karamazov, I don’t care whether it’s otherwise interesting or enjoyable to read, and I don’t care if you help little […]
