Well That Didn't Last Long

I got one. An iPhone. The number I was assigned is awesome. The number is sort of like a full house in poker, if you think about it.

435-5888

or

HELL-888

or

HELL-TUTU

If only it was 666.

iPhone

(e:James) won't let me get an iPhone.

And if ever any of you doubt my infinite awesomeness look upon this entry and weep at your inadequate awesomaninity.

jim writes at 11:18:40 06/29/07 - Comment #20251: (e:James) is awesome and is my favorite person. He let me get one.

His birthday is coming up so I will lavish him with something ridiculous.

jenks writes at 06:32:33 06/29/07 - Comment #20247: if i weren't stuck at fucking work i'd be in line right now... I just tried to order online but the store is down. I may just 'swing by' the att store on transit later on on the crazy chance that they haven't sold out and there's no line. (yeah right).

once again, i have thrown all logic and reason to the wind and am totally caught up in 'gotta have it' fever. Kinda pathetic.

paul writes at 06:06:36 06/29/07 - Comment #20245: I want one so bad but I am stuck in this stupid sprint contract, argh. Who will be the first (e:peep) to get one. I am also waiting to hear the word on tethering?

hodown writes at 03:21:57 06/29/07 - Comment #20242: 1. A beadazzler is something everyone should own, clearly that was a wise purchase.

2. An iphone is also something everyone should own. I say if you don't get your way do like all bitter housewives do and with hold sex and then threaten divorce..

jason writes at 03:12:25 06/29/07 - Comment #20241: Jim, do what everyone else does. Hide cash from your partner. If anyone asks where you got the iPhone say it was a gift.

jim writes at 02:56:56 06/29/07 - Comment #20239: But I need one for research purposes, don't you see?

james writes at 02:55:39 06/29/07 - Comment #20238: (e:Jim) thinks he deserves ever hot damn new gadget on the market.

I am still making payments on that precious beadazzler of yours mister!

iPhone

I've always used a pretty basic cell phone. But now I am thinking it's time to get a real phone.

Paul - are you lining up somewhere on Friday to get yours?

"The only graphic designer with roadies"

A NY mag article about Edward Tufte, who I am completely obsessed with. His books on graphic presentation of information are amazing. His next book is supposed to be crazy - all real life physical stuff, not graphics.

I've been dying to go to one of his day long seminars. Anyone up for a road trip?

Painful Internet

At our new place we are sharing the internet connection of the guys downstairs, but the wireless reception is completely painful. It's totally out for about 5 minutes out of every hour, and the rest of the time is really slow - like dialup slow, plus really long latencies. I just ordered a wireless bridge and am praying that that will be my salvation. If not I'll have to buy them a giant antenna to stick on their access point.

Also speaking of utilities, I've been cursing my morning showers because the water hasn't been very hot, but it turned out (e:james) had just turned the thermostat on the water heater way down. At least that is an easy fix :)

Sort of excited

I've been working on a flash card site for learning foreign languages, and I'm really looking forward to making it work with the iPhone. It's the perfect size and seems like a good excuse to try to get (e:james) let me buy one :) (yeah right)

OK and now I spent like 4 hours wondering why my apache rewrite rules were behaving so erratically and of course it was because i forgot to set ''RewriteEngine on'' but strangely some of the rules still were working just fine.

All of the stuff I know about Apache I have learned painfully. It's just that sort of a beast.
