Yeeeesssssssss!

I finally got my phone yesterday and it’s freaking sweet. I’m still really excited about it from last night. Too bad I can’t figure out how to receive MMS messages :P And I still have a lot of playing to do, seeing as I can’t figure out how to connect to the [...]

Gmail sucks: Part 4

If I ever get the balls to go back to my primary email account, I’m going to make sure that i forward a copy of it to my secondary account, just in case this ever happens again (not that I’m not doing it already).
I think the problem might be server-related. Several times last week while [...]

favicon installed

Uploaded my favicon. yeah for the crab.
I’m having an issues with this post editor. I thought I turned off the WYSIWYG feature, but it still shows the pretty post box. This is really annoying, because I’d much rather do this in HTML. Any way to turn this stupid thing off??

yeah nevermind, [...]

Gmail sucks: Part 2

So back to the little fiasco that happened yesterday…
All my email in Gmail is gone.
I have no mail (except for the new emails I received after 9 am yesterday). My mailbox was 5% full and now it’s 0% full. What’s the point of having 2.7GB storage space when it’s all going to be [...]

Gmail sucks: Part 1

I’m supposed to be on a secure network at work so I don’t have access to gmail, hotmail, aim, trillian, etc. (but i managed to install and use gtalk). Anyways, so as a kind of work around and to keep myself in-the-know for my gmail inbox, i added the gmail “widget”, for lack of [...]

Lots of things going on since this weekend.
First of all, saw Casino Royale; it was awesome.
Second, Pat and I pitched in for a hosted domain (no more crappy CS servers!) and it’s been eating up my attention that I didn’t so any online shopping yesterday at work, which by the way is supposed [...]

007: Casino Royale

The movie is 2 hours and 30 minutes long, but it’s filled with action and surprisingly not a lot of cheesy lines. I’ve noticed a trend where the prequel movie is better than the movie series (e.g. Batman Begins). While Casino Royale is supposed to chronicle how James Bond became 007, they weren’t [...]

Oh Deer!

From The Register:
The defence lawyer of a Wisconsin man charged with having sex with a dead deer is claiming he’s innocent of any wrongdoing – because a “crimes against sexual morality” statute prohibits sex with animals, but fails to mention carcasses, The Duluth News Tribune reports.
The 20-year-old sex offender is currently facing possibly nine months [...]
