Crazy Voting ExperienceCategory: voting
I went to Lafayette High School with (e:terry) and (e:matthew) where I normally vote and I wasn't on the books. They both were, none of us had updated our location, despite the fact that our house is directly across from a polling station.
So they told me to check the one near my house and see if I ended up on there. I ran down and they refused to let me vote there. Then it was like 8:30. So I went home and looked online where it shows I am set for Lafayette. Then I called the Erie County Board of Elections who insisted that I vote across from my house. I went down there, with the woman on the phone and she told them to let me vote there. All of a sudden everyone changed their tune and was super nice.
I got to fill out a provisional ballot. I hope they bother counting that. I felt so dumb because I raised my hand to complain that Sam Hoyt wasn't on the paper ballott but he was on the poster on the wall. They laughed and said, you don't live in the village anymore - its a different district. So I voted for Crystal Peoples. She was the only choice. I had no choice.
I wish I could be strong like (e:vincent,46508) and vote for nader but I really don't want to risk McCain winning and honestly I am a little over nader. He seems kind of washed up now.
For some reason I show up inactive on the voter registration site. What does that even mean?

What I'm guessing is that inactive happens after you haven't voted for so long. For example there are some races that if you didn't vote in the primaries for them you can't vote in them, not sure if that is still the case though, again just a guess.

Maybe they thought you were a Republican & tried to disenfranchise your vote j/k ;-)
As for Nader being washed up, I don't care. What I am doing is an attempt to build a foundation for future years. Helping a 3rd party move up on the ballot so at some point in the future they can actually field competitive candidates. If more people did what I did, we may have more options instead of Fascist Party "A" and Fascist Party "B"

yeah the lady behind me was all screwed up too... she wasn't on the list, so they looked up her address and said she was at the right place, but to just check the other machine across the hall, and she was on that list, even though she shouldn't be...
I'm not sure why this is so difficult.
And really, if it's done by location, why on earth would you NOT be assigned to the polling station across the street from your house?!

Worst Work Day EverCategory: work
Well, not ever, but close. I worked so hard all day from the moment I got there at 10:30 till I left 5 minutes ago at 11:30 - a fun 13 hours laters. My brain actually hurts. To make it even more fun I have to be at work at 9:00am to give a presentation I already gave to the same group of people that didn't pay attention the first time. I barely had any time to prepare new material for it because I had lots of other real work to do. I find I have to explain everything like 16 times at work. Even when I use flow charts, graphs, power point presentations, send email, add wiki pages, etc - no one ever goes over it. It is so frustrating.
I also spent a whole bunch more time on IE6 problems again. I hope the programmers of that application die.
The fun sound of my macbook pro santa rosa fan dying. This is really great because I have a ton of work and no way to get to the apple store till friday when I am sure they will be too busy.
Apparently, I am not the only one

TO make it way more fun, my computer is dying loudly. Something went seriousy wrong with my macbook pro. It sounds like a lawn mower right now and I have no way to get to the apple store till friday. I am sure it is going to die. Its so loud I can't even use it for the presentation tomorrow, damn it.

PDAnet for iphone tetheringCategory: mobile
Having a jailbroken iphone is great for a lot of reasons. The best of all which is you can tether. All the tethering options until I tried this point sucked. None of them were as good as any of the windows mobile solutions.
This latest one PDAnet is totally awesome. No socks proxy, no messy settings, just ad hoc wifi network and one simple switch for on or off in the application. It even has WEP, and although WEP isn't amazing security, its better than none and seeing as it is just a temp network... its fine. Everything runs lightning fast and you can use your laptop as you normally would if connected in any other way. I can't believe it took this long for something to come along.
Here is a blog with the instructions:
Now if only apple would support this type of solution.

ta-dah!
:::link:::
"A 3rd party tethering option called NetShare briefly appeared in the App Store before it was removed by Apple. AT&T traditionally charges an additional $30/month for this tethering option on their other smartphones. MacRumors has separately heard that this tethering capability is expected to be built into the 2.2 firmware."

do you know why apple ISN'T supporting tethering? Is it b/c ATT won't let them or something like that? I'm a little reluctant to jailbreak, but that sure would be nice...

Time Change DecisionsCategory: work
I woke up an hour early effortlessly thanks to the time change. Could be a good time to change my work schedule by one hour. Then again, I might just hate it after a week. Maybe I will just go in early today and see.
