Watched Wednesday’s Pushing Daisies last night. “Eternal Flame” is STILL stuck in my head.

A couple of days ago it was reported that, even with data disabled while roaming, the G1 still hits the internet. It turns out it was an edge case: his phone connected to T-Mobile UK and thought it wasn’t roaming, so it kept data active.

  • Saw a bunch of Santa hats lying alongside the entire length of the 55 South to 405 South ramp – and it’s a long bridge. Maybe a box came open?
  • Got tech support question in Spanish for wrong company. Replied in bad Spanish with link. Checked against Google Translate. Google has a better vocabulary than I do. 🙁
  • Roger Ebert dismantles Expelled (via @mikesterling).

  • XKCD: The East/West terminology always bugged me too. But then, living in California, I figure we’re also on the Pacific Rim.
  • What makes people think it’s OK to post insults/threats just because your old blog post isn’t what they wanted to find on Google? It was on the one about using the disarmed emergency exit as a shortcut during construction…5 years ago. WTF?

  • I like having (nearly) full movement in my arm again.
  • End of an era: Our last box of real Sudafed has expired.

  • Fall in SoCal = checking the weather report daily to decide between shorts or a heavy jacket.
  • I keep seeing pill spam with sensational election-related subjects. Oddly they can spell Obama correctly, but consistently write “McCane”
  • It’s time to upgrade your wireless network security to WPA2.
