Just thought I'd make a quick post here to let everyone know I'm still around. Things are mostly okay. I'm dealing with high blood pressure and hopefully a medication that actually works can be found soon. It's always been on the high side but for the last year or two it's been excessively so ( Read more... )

The end of 2010 is fast approaching. There hasn't been a whole lot to say. I've been and still am working on a few projects that are eating up a lot of time. I had a sinus infection or something during the middle of the month. It was extremely unpleasant and slowed me down entirely too much. I don't think I got anything at all accomplished the week ( Read more... )

The end of the week is finally upon me. While I have to-do list of subjects for future posts I really have nothing much to say for this one. Pretty much a typical Saturday shaping up into another dull Saturday evening. Just as well as I'm feeling a bit sick this weekend. Probably has something to do with lack of sleep ( Read more... )

Well, I committed myself to doing an entry a day for the week. Really not a whole lot to say for today. I got a haircut today as planned. I've got the wireless on my Kindle DX turned on in the hopes that I'll get the new 2.5 update. It has a couple features I've been waiting for. Namely the ability to organize books into collections and yet more ( Read more... )

I've decided for the nonce that I'm going to try to post every week. There isn't much to say this week. I'll just address a couple things and we'll see what else comes to mind if anything ( Read more... )

It's been awhile since I've posted anything here so this is an update I guess ( Read more... )

I got a chance to visit Fry's Electronics yesterday to look at what they had. They had four models of ebook readers. Three of which were e-ink devices. They had the Sony PRS-505 and PRS-700 models, one of the Astak reader, and the ECTACO jetBook. Didn't really look at the Astak much since the display model looked damaged. The display on the PRS-700 ( Read more... )

Health issues seem to be alright. I'm still having sinus issues but changing urologists last year really helped with that other issue. It always works better when the doctor is treating you for the condition you have rather than something he's imagining. I need to find a good ENT specialist who's accepting new patients ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm really, really, really bored today. Well, probably more lonely than bored I guess. Then again maybe it's all the same thing. I don't know ( Read more... )

I think I have a new pet peeve. As some of you know I've been researching ebook readers lately. I've read a few hundred user reviews across a dozen or so sites and one thing really stands out. More than half of the reviews are written by people who insert LOL or ROFL at seemingly random intervals throughout their writing. It makes for obnoxious ( Read more... )
