2006.06.29 Newbie Cell Phone Users

They're über popular. Lots of people have them. But everybody goes through a form of honeymoon phase with a cell phone. Although they give you a nice thick manual to tell you how to perform any random function on your phone, they don't hand you any sort social rulebook for this newly acquired telephony device.

2006.06.24 So Long Tori

I noticed that Aaron Spelling died yesterday. I can't help but feel sorry for those he left behind, since more often than not, death doesn't come at the most convenient time. I was amazed to read about his career, and everything that he had done.

2006.06.15 Longbored Compliant

It may not mean much to very many people (especially considering the number of people who actually read this blog), but I have some good news - this website is now fully XHTML compliant. Please, no need for gifts. I'll just put another notch in my walking staff, and consider this something else to be pleased with. Now all I need to do is redesign this place, instead of resorting to my usual template thievery.
