This is why I am glad I don't write on paper a lot

Sometimes, I can't even figure it out myself afterwards.

Google video chat and web calls

This is why I sided with google instead of apple. I just logged into my gmail on linux and was able to dial all the numbers I have in my address book on my phone and talk to them online free on my computer. It also has the entire history of all the calls from my phone. Plus I think this is the first time I have seen really good video chat on linux to mac. I guess skype also works but I don't have skype and they ripped me off on credits twice while this is just built into my gmail and fully integrates with my phone.

Here I am talking with myself between mac and linux.

La Dolce Vita Lunch

(e:mike), (e:terry) and I went to La Dolce Vita for lunch. It was amazing and quite reasonably priced. I got the half pannini and soup special for $7.

I'd vote for Sam Hoyt

But unfortunately its not my district. We have no choice really because I'm sure Antoine will win again the primary and I refuse to affiliate with the party so I can't vote. It so weird that the primary becomes the actual election.

Strange midnight meals

I stayed late at work to complete a component for my new system. When I got home there was nothing much to eat so I tried to make something. I am of the opinion anything can be made tasty with with the additional of blueberries.

Its like trying to sell a computer windows 95

Why on earth is dell coming out with no phones on old operating systems? Seriously, someone should get fired over this as just about everyone is losing any hopes of Dell's mobile strategy. While android was a Savior for Motorola it seems like not being able to keep up is going to kill Dell.

How is Google even letting this happen. I would refuse to license to companies that can't keep up as they ate going to affect the android reputation as much as their own, for consumers that can't understand the outdatedness of their mobile OS.

The wrong Android isn't any good Its hard to feel sorry for Dell. The Aero runs Android 1.5, while its tablet, the Streak, runs Android 1.6. How Dell expects to be successful with devices that are running outdated software is anyones guess. Currently, there are several devices available that run Android 2.2. The rest are almost all running Android 2.1. By offering a smartphone with Android 1.5 and a tablet with Android 1.6, its becoming clearer by the minute that Dell just doesn't know what its doing.

Tightrope Walker on Bidwell

When I first saw this guy I thought he was floating in the air. On closer inspection I realized that he was instead a tightrope walked.

On a creepier note, when trying to pick out the bidwell location on the map...

Click to load live map

...firefox on my desktop computer was able to guys my location by 21 feet.

Trapped in a box

I feel so bad for the miners trapped in that mine. How is it that it will take untill christmas to dig them out. It seems like humans should be able to dig them out faster. Maybe BP should donate some of it's massive drilling equipment to them.

This map makes it even more confusing. If the light grey areas are the mined part, then how do the paths work.
