What's a great Friday night? Your wife goes out with friends and you get to take your lovely 3 year old to "Enchanted" at the Cinema Grill. Then, a fun evening of tea parties and drawing. And she thinks you're a blast.
I recently found a bug new to the iPhone, specifically version 1.1.3. I have been able to reproduce the bug and have found a solution, although it is a bit of a pain. If you receive a call while listening to music via headphones (specifically non-iPhone headphones) and pull the headphones out of the jack as to listen to the call via the handset's speaker, you get no sound. The only way to hear the call is to use the speaker phone. The bug is that the iPhone will only seem to recognize that the jack has been unplugged if you are in the iPod app and stop the player, remove the headphone jack and then generate a call.
My best friend and I discuss our jobs on a frequent basis. I say that my next teaching gig will be in a small college town or overseas, mainly because I am tired of having to convince people to become educated. I want that to be a norm and to move on.
He says that is exactly why I should keep teaching in the hood; because there are people who still need convincing.

Windows. The hoops you have to jump through to get a new install up and running are just oppresive, not to mention the half a gig of updates you have to install so that the machine can last more than 5 minutes on the net before it's conscripted into some hacker's bot army.
And then another 200+ mb for Office!

So, with taxes coming, I am trying to decide what to do with the extra money (besides paying down some debt and perhaps saving a bit for an emergency). I'm thinking about hiring a maid to come and clean my house. My house is not dirty, but with two kids, a dog, a cat and a very hectic schedule my housekeeping has fallen behind. My thought: Get a maid in here for a full day of "Spring" cleaning. Walls, baseboards, bathrooms, floors could all use a good cleaning, even carpets.
Oh, this is too funny. And if you have ever been to WalMart, you know it's true.
What song do you wish would never show up on a karaoke list?
Anything by Gwen Stefani.
Earlier in the week Apple increased the storage capacity of their .Mac service from 1 GB to 10GB. I was pretty stoked about it as I can now keep a large portion of my documents online for retrieval from just about anywhere. Very cool, until I noticed the remaining disc size on my MacBook had dropped considerably. Seems that even if your iDisk size is only, say 1.5 GB, the iDisk sync utiility makes a mirror of the whole 10 GB, chewing up all that disk space! Guess we'll either need to fix that or come up with some compression utility.
