We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

BN has a card and you get a discount and some free shipping, but it's not as cool as prime, eh?

Google Voice is now officially available for the Galaxy Tab. I can't work out if I should bother replace the version I sideloaded or not.

I can't work out if I should bother replace the version I sideloaded or not.

If you do you'll get notified of updates. If you don't like the official version you can always remove it and reinstall the one you've got now.

I'ma have a look.

I need an automated way to see the mail servers of a long list of domains and if they have SPF set up. What's the best way to do that?

Dear Virgin Mobile Tech Support:

I don't know how charged my battery is. I can't go to the main menu. As I have explained to you over and over, all I see is a flashing logo.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Frustrating! I hate that kind of thing, Ginger.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

We recently upgraded to MS Office 2010 (and boy, is the learning curve painful). I was asked to insert some charts into a PowerPoint file and send them to someone we work with a lot, but isn't on staff. Well, I did so. About 15 minutes after I sent it off I got a call and this plaintive voice says, "I can't open the file." Luckily, I realized what the problem was - he hadn't upgraded - and was able to send the file saved in the older version.

Wait, worse than upgrading to 2007?

Don't know - we went directly from 2003 to 2010.

Our wings are not tired.

2010 is LOADS better than 2007.

I'll take your word for it (Word?) - but trying to work my usual schedule, with our biggest conference coming up, is painful.
