Mobile blogging

It works!

Edit from my stationary computer: The picture is from the church near my apartment, and meant to be made fun of after the election.

Pickens who?



Once a Texas oil man, always a Texas oil man.

Update: Something for those who like to read.

I see your updated maxims, and raise you a diatribe. Which leaves me wondering why this used to be so hard not too long ago...

Haha

This is a phone I could buy now that it will work on T-Mobile and 3rd-party apps are popping up like well, they should. Oh, that and the phone is actually Competitive with other smart phones (atleast as far as the T-Mobile network goes).

The media has an Apple bias!

It does, and you cannot convince me otherwise!

Now, on to the disturbing part:
The media has a conservative bias too,
and I dislike conservatives,
ergo, I dislike Apple as well.

It isn't enough that the food supply has been reduced to this (the whole NYT article is worth a read):

"So how is it that today the people with the least amount of money to spend on food are the ones most likely to be overweight? ... Drewnowski gave himself a hypothetical dollar to spend ... [he] found that a dollar could buy 1,200 calories of cookies or potato chips but only 250 calories of carrots. Looking for something to wash down those chips, he discovered that his dollar bought 875 calories of soda but only 170 calories of orange juice."

Now they have to go after chocolate!, apparently, the demand for chocolate isn't enough for a profitable and satisfied Hersheys:

"The US Food and Drug Administration is considering redefining 'chocolate' to allow substitution of vegetable oil ($0.70/lb.) for cocoa butter ($2.30/lb.), and whey protein for dry whole milk"

You can submit a comment to the FDA by tomorrow, this website has everything you need.

"pageinistas"

Wikiality can't seem to get it's own page on Wikipedia or Wikitionary (My account or my IP are banned from the latter from further editing), and for what reason?

1) There is no verifiable printed source which used the term.
2) The term won't be remembered.

I like the wikipedia editors as much as the next guy, but they need to take a more "if it doesn't hurt anything else, we'll allow it" view of this. The word is describing some sort of consensus reality (the idealist kind) prevalent on wikipedia because of it's anyone-can-edit nature and as I said, adding a Wikipedia page on it isn't going to hurt anything. In fact, there is nothing in the general rules laid out that says it can't be allowed. If the best place they can put it in is the Vandalism of Wikipedia in popular culture section of Wikipedia in popular culture, the term is being misunderstood.

Consensus will probably happen once someone uses it in print to describe the uniqueness of creating/changing/getting formal or informal information from Wikipedia. I'm not flaming, and I don't really care that much. :)
