  1. @JeepersMedia Tech has more features than ever but it certainly does come at the cost of decreased reliability.
  2. The air quality tonight is abysmal. Not a big fan of fire pits.
  3. Working on an interesting project. I just built a set of functions to convert a flat database table to a hierarchical data structure.
  4. The ice cream truck out front totally needs to be blasting some dubstep. "Come feed your face while we drop the bass"
  5. I was recording a note on my new phone and I groaned when I forgot what I was going to say. The transcript asked if I was going to die.
  6. Dusted off the old Nokia n800 and set it up. Doesn't do well with youtube videos but is nice with Opera.
  7. Just upgraded my phone to a Motorola Droid Razr. It is way faster and more responsive than my old HTC Eris.
  8. It turns out that I started being more positive after finally becoming so sick of being so negative.
  9. twitpic.com/9nczp1 - I filmed this with an actual potato!
  10. Monitoring D-STAR on 145.35 twitpic.com/9nczp1
  11. Hunting for geocaches at Caesar's Creek on April 30, 2011. twitpic.com/9ncwda
  12. The SoundCloud Android app is really cool and I'd like to keep it installed... hopefully they'll fix the "Accounts & Sync" crash bug.
  13. I just joined LinkedIn and created my professional profile. Join my network. lnkd.in/akPedq #in
  14. The "Spanish Lady" numbers station on 5880 kHz is coming in extra weak tonight.
  15. I must retract my earlier comment regarding HTC. It turns out that the SoundCloud Android app, of all things, crashes "Accounts & Sync".
  16. This is the fourth time I've had to do a factory reset on my HTC Eris just to get it to work properly.
  17. HTC should incorporate the "Force Close" button into their logo.
  18. Pleased as punch to hear some wub wub wub in the new IE9 commercials.
