The Fun Theory – If you make good tasks people don’t like fun, they’ll do them. Seems to work. is.gd/4RYGX
Time to do some house keeping on my work Windows 7 machine, lots of unused apps and junk sitting around.
See, now what can’t AT&T in the US be this cool? is.gd/4RO9n O2 in the UK is offering free unlock of the iPhone for their customers.
My lens fleet with the new 50mm addition… nothing to exciting but I like it ;) flic.kr/p/7eqGth
I will gladly tweet #syncmyridepodcast because I do it all the time. Ford/MS Sync rocks! Do it now to win an Apple or Amazon gift card.
Dennis Kucinich has the only logical reasoning I’ve seen for not voting for the AHCA Act, because it’s not single payer. tr.im/EuTm
Rep. Ed Markey said the Republican’s “do nothing” alternative means that the GOP now “stands for Grandstand, Oppose, and Pretend.” #FUGOP
I think #FUGOP has become my new favorite hash tag of all time. I think I could manage to tweet all day and throw that at the end.
I’m happy that health care reform passed in the house, annoyed that 39 democrats voted against it. Glad to know my rep was not one of them.
Pretty amazing that on an base full of soldiers, the one who stopped the gunman yesterday was a female civilian cop who happen to be there.
State of New York files antitrust suit against Intel for practices against AMD tr.im/ElBG (Excellent)

Strange that I can install MSE on a PC without rebooting, but installing IE8 demands it. You’d think it’d be the other way around.
The more I watch CNN (and other 24 hour news) the more crap I see. You can tell these people have no idea what they’re talking about.
Do you think they sell one that says “No Soliciting, unless you’re selling Girl Scout Cookies” ???
Working from home today I now realize why many of our neighbors have no soliciting signs up. Had three people come to the door selling crap.
Not surpisingly, the Fort Hood website has crashed. pao.hood.army.mil Hope everyone is OK down there
A nice perk for all those T-Mobile users who’ve not been able to use their service recently… free porn! is.gd/4Nah0 (seriously)
BTW, Wyse Technologies published a press release this morning with me/quotes all over it. Read it here: is.gd/4N3gP (case study soon)
So far I’m loving Microsoft DPM, was a bit of a bear to install but now that it’s running I’m already liking it a lot more than Backup Exec.
Going to bed at 2am and waking up at 6:30am doesn’t really give you much rest. Going to be wiped out by tonight. #fb
Wow, two epic T-mobile failures in only a months time. Feels pretty good to be an AT&T user right now.
Replacing Symantec Backup Exec with DPM and McAfee Enterprise AV with Forefront this month. November is drink the Microsoft koolaid month!
Setting up Microsoft DPM server on my fancy new backup server. Can’t wait to get this baby rolling, and replace Symantec Backup Exec.
bestc.am/kvPH I drive to much. 6500 miles and I just got this car at the end of July
Sweet, my new backup server just came in. 6TB of raaaaaaw storage. Going to rack it and install W2K8 x64 after lunch.
bestc.am/TgQH Got a new HDTV for the bedroom. Just a simple 32" 720p, nothing too fancy. Much nicer looking then the old SD one.
Ford Fusion beats out Accord and Camry again this year is Consumer Reports most reliable car ratings. :) tr.im/DICQ
I really need a faster zoom lens. Anyone have a Nikon 70-200 2.8 AF-S they want to sell to me cheap? ;)
