The game in question


So it’s the game that’s dumb? Gotcha.

A year late and a dollar short

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Also, I’ve been struggling for a year with AudibleAir (Windows Mobile app for downloading my stuff from audible.com). For some reason, it would fail to download Opie and Anthony episodes. I don’t have any other subscriptions, and the standard audiobooks download fine. Recently I discovered that it would work fine just after a hard reset, and sometimes right after a thorough uninstall of all audible software on the phone.

Well, now for the past week, it’s been working like a charm after I hard reset the phone, installed miminal apps, and installed AA to my storage card. Too bad I’ll likely have an iPhone in a month, plus it’s less of an issue now that I can more easily get the episodes to my iPod (in higher quality anyway).

Sir, could you get off me please?

I was reading the Wikipedia page for Dan Ruettiger (of Rudy fame) and saw this oddly worded line:

Ruettiger himself has a cameo, as a fan behind Rudy’s dad (the man that Rudy’s dad bangs in joy after the sack was recorded) in the final game scene.

Stop! Thief!

phishing scam
What I love about this is that
a) there is no product description or ID #
b) it says my username is shown to prove it really came from eBay, but I can’t find it anywhere.

The Sprain

Thursday, April 5th, 2007

I sprained my ankle today. I was visiting a building with my dad when I missed the last step of a staircase (going down) and my ankle twisted. Ow!

Get ya Oss to Mahs!

Today my mission was to get out of the apt on a Saturday, even if I was to do the same things. So I went to the Apple Store to pick up some stuff then go to Panera next door for their free WiFi (the difference between Apple and Panera is edibles and tables). So I went into Apple to get an iPod cable and an AC adapter for my PowerBook. Since I forgot my earbuds, and kinda wanted a new set anyway, I bought a pair of Nike HJ30 Vapor Flight….whatevers….hmm no good link, but the Apple part number is TB945LL/A.

Brought ‘em over to Panera, and I couldn’t open the freakin’ things. I asked if they had scissors I could use. Since they didn’t, I just made do without them. It woulda been nice to have them though.

Bands to check out

Some things I got the from the iTunes Music Store recently:

Manda & the Marbles
Feist - Let it Die

The first I heard on the Accident Hash podcast. The latter was a recommendation at iTMS.

Updates (finally)!!

Friday, July 1st, 2005

OK, I think I better update everyone who’s reading this (both of you) with more updates on my life. Statistically, only 1/10 of one of you is remotely possible of caring about the last article I just wrote about Konfabulator. Since you’re here, you probably care more about more important goings-on. So here goes!

  1. I finally moved it outta my folks’ place to an apartment 2 miles from my office: 2 towns away and on the same street. Pics are here.
  2. I just started going to the NY Sports Club to lose some weight and sculpt my “muss-kels” (ah-kuh-kuh-kuh…). It’s a bit of a trip though.
  3. My brother got married in November at Disney World! I made them a site!
  4. On a less important note, I switched to Cingular so I could get a flip phone with Bluetooth. Got the Mot V551 for free after rebate. The phone doesn’t work with Salling Clicker but BluePhoneElite fills in nicely. On the plus side, it has a built-in AIM client. It seems similar to the V600 I could have gotten from Tmo.

Whoops

I left my cel phone at home yesterday. When I got home, my Prius gave me a little reminder. When I pulled into my garage, it said “Bluetooth Connection Successful”
