Just wanted to further share a comment I made to whomever runs the Google Android OS account on facebook recently...
A letter I penned to the AJC. Tried to send it to NewsAmerica but their web forms for email are so damn broken I couldn't even send it.
Hello,
Allegedly this came from a teacher in Nashville.
We are worried about 'the cow' -- when it is all about the 'Ice Cream.
The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was
while teaching third grade this year.
The presidential election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest.
I decided we would have an election for a class president.
We would choose our nominees.
They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote.
To simplify the process, candidates were nominated by other class members.
Wish I could draw, came up with a terrific idea for a comic strip, ok imaginations required;
Guy standing at a urinal doing his business.
Schmuck with Iphone4 on his belt walks in and starts to use urinal beside him.
Schmuck glances at dudes face and says "Hey your Steve Jobs!"
Steve closes his eyes, grunts "Yes, I am."
So here in Villa Rica the local high school has been proposing a new dress code. They want to force kids to wear what amounts to uniforms. Make no mistake that code will be put in place. Its been very clear to bystanders that the formality of discussing things with the public has been just that, a formality. They will pass this dress code no matter what the public thinks. But I am getting ahead of myself. I decided to voice my opinion to the board. Here is the letter I wrote and sent to the board.
Distinguished members of the board,
It's starting to happen. It is the Christmas holiday shopping season. With times being tough the barginistas are out in full force. They are scouring ever inch of the earth for a deal and fair warning they are rabid in their determination.
Are you for or against health care reform? Then you are STUPID!
There, now some of you will read that and say ummm, ok, he said whether we are for or against health care reform we are stupid, why would he do that? Some of you are now in a blind rage because I attacked your side of the argument. Regardless of your position for a good percentage of you I have made a point.
So I have been looking for a truck. As a natural result I turned to Craigslist to look. Be warned, there are TONS of scammers on Craigslist. Out of 7 trucks I have tried to make contact on 3 have been flat out scams (and the only ones to contact me back). How can you spot a scam? Some are Easy. These two trucks had the same response almost word for word.
Yep you got it, you have probably already heard this but let me recap it for you from an angle you may not have considered. Apple has released a new Ipod Shuffle. Its the smallest one yet.
It has one fatal flaw though.
Its so small that it has no controls on the unit, they are on the headphone cable. Still not a huge deal because you figure you could use a headphone adapter of some sort and still have functionality?
WRONG.
So it seems that Symantec is making one of those Epic Stupid decisions that just cant be replicated outside of an ostrich putting its head in the sand.
Seems a file named Pifts.exe has been trying to phone home for some folks and they traced it back to Symantec. Evidently Symantec views Pifts.exe as some dirty little secret and deleted the posts and accounts that these people made in Symantec's forums..
