This entire website - minus, oh say..... I dont know, 400 some odd cruddy old posts - have moved to a more
professional, better quality, and most importantly, snazzier site!

Yes, you're right, the new site features my past greatest posts, without the awful ones, and all new
ones to come!

Come visit or I'll throw you into a vortex of lava for still being on this old site!

Rant: Wollmans Rink Rules

After skating at this rink for years, I just noticed a new rule: No skating backwards.

Are you kidding me? I understand no weaving, which everyone does anyway, but you can't go backwards? What is this!

This glitch was gone by the morning but when I checked last night, It showed two  Decembers.

Cameras are getting a bit too..... Stalkerish-Sniperlike

Here's a perfect example:

South Street Seaport, NYC. A perfect view of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Ohh wait, what's this?

You want to see a bit closer?

Sure! With my Canon Powershot SX200, I can zoom in 12X.

Not good enough?

Digital zoom can bring me to 48X

Not the clearest but it sure is scary.

Simple Canon Trick To Take Better Photos

Taken on Auto Mode, no changes.

The image is bright and almost black and white
Next, I switched to vivid colors after going into Program.

The only change is a bit of darkness
Next I played with Colors and changed it to Vivid Colors for the best in that setting

The colors of the sun appear with much more color.



 Finally, to get the best image, I went to SCN and played around with the Scenes. The best one for my image was obviously Sunset.




My tip to you: Stay away from auto, SCN has many Scenes made for each scenario. So why not give it a shot!

The one, the only, the single iPhone repo you will ever need.

For all your cracked app and addons, and themes, head on down to the Italian repo: HackYouriPhone
Don't worry, Cydia automatically translates most of the apps.

My first thoughts on my Cr-48, OH WAIT, I don't have one.

Other then that sentence totally rhyming, It is 100% true, a sad fact.
It just goes to show how Google is whipping by these forms. Who knows if they are automated, I sure hope not because if they are, they are looking for some weirdos.

Google has the best tech humor out of any company

Take Steve Jobs. Always wearing the same type of clothes and using the same adjectives.
Now take a look at the directions to the first boot of the Cr-48, big difference:

Snow? Get over it. Sincerely, Japan

I'm just wondering how they plowed that!
The plows outside my house right now couldnt even get the road to show!

Real trees are more eco-friendly than fake you buffoons! Here's why.

Take a typical plastic tree imported from your friendly Chinese warehouse. Now take an over sized transport ship. How many gallons of gasoline must  are used to cross an ocean. How much power is needed to form these fake pieces out of PVC plastic, which isn't recyclable, meaning your eco-tree will be thrown into a landfill, or burned. Nice.


If you really want to be ecofriendly, get a biodegradable, REAL tree.

Umm.... Where's my most popular post?

You know. The one with over 5 thousand views!

I'll try to recover as much as I can.
Could Google have done this? Unlikely :)
