Hey Google and Verizon

Google: First of all, I want to congratulate you on an excellent operating system. I hadn’t had the privilege of using an Android powered device until now. However, i’m confused as to why the Droid X has yet to receive the latest update 2.2 codenamed Froyo. Especially When the new Droid 2 has been released with the update.

I have seen the Droid X running a leaked version, which raises further questions and leads me to

VERIZON: You’ll notice your name is in caps…
This is because there’s quite a few things I could discuss with you at the moment, however I will stick to the subject above. Considering you already have a device out in the market with the new operating system, It leads me to believe you are the reason that there is a delay in the update. I love your coverage, support, and reliability so please do what must be done to release this update.

I have spoken.

Can the iPhone 4 really do everything?

Can it? Really

The Zombies…are coming

Everyone by now should have played Plants vs Zombies. If not go do that right now.
For those of us who weren’t dead to the gaming world and have already played and mastered it, you will appreciate this as much as  me.

These are classical guitar renditions of Plants vs Zombies moments in the game.
Why not share it, they are so wonderfully performed. Even if you aren’t a fan of the game. (Do those people actually exist?)

Continuing on…

Day -  “Grasswalk” …Brainz

and grazing around on the Roof…

Yeah!!!

(A Huge Wave of Zombies is Approaching)

Facebook Causes…

According to Google, Yahoo, and Bing…

Facebook causes divorce, depression, jealousy, and even cancer.
Now I’m sure that once this gains enough attention Google will take it down, along with Yahoo and Bing following the same path.

Grab your screen shots now, or take the ones I’ve provided below.

Going down that list, we learn

  • Facebook causes divorce
  • Facebook causes application [this confused me at first. It's probably the Facebook Causes application, says Marshall Kirkpatrick ]
  • Facebook causes depression
  • Facebook causes donations [hey, something positive!]
  • Facebook causes internet explorer to crash [clearly unfair to investor and partner Microsoft]
  • Facebook causes app [probably to crash]
  • Facebook causes jealousy
  • Facebook causes problems [see, Facebook is the universal cause of all problems]
  • Facebook causes statistics [probably stats on things that Facebook causes]
  • Facebook causes cancer [it was in the Daily Mail; it must be true]

From SearchEngineLand.com

Lest we forget about Yahoo & Bing:


Facebook again causes issues such as problems, divorce, cancer and depression. But we also get new things that Facebook causes:

  • Facebook causes affairs
  • Facebook causes breakups
  • Facebook causes jealously
  • Facebook causes reentry
  • Facebook causes non profits

Same Source

Not as much of an impact with Bing, but still saying it causes divorce.

Early Morning

So I am thinking… As I sit here with access to my blog via Blackberry…..why not go off into blog land for a little bit? When is the last time I did that? January, it seems to be. What do you know about that?

Sun is coming up, sky looks a light blue with a few cloud strands here and there. Not that it really matters to you, but that’s what I see so you get to know it as well.

I am starting to recommend Sponsored Tweets more and more. Maybe after my next payout we will talk about how strong I like them. Probably need to get a referral link. Oh well.

Getting brighter outside, bunch of birds chirping. Few ducks making noises too. I am waiting for the Fountain to turn back on….Awww, there are no ducks on the fountain. If there was, I’d get another possible chance to see the Fountain hit the ducks. But they are smart, or they hear some sort of something below them kick on, because I have seen them jump off it within minutes of it turning on.

Well, I don’t guess the fountain is going to turn on while I’m writing this. Typing, rather — you get the point.

Bored with this…

Pajama Pants in Space Update

It’s been a little while since I’ve reported anything, especially Pajama Pants in Space. The all-genre band by yours truly. Awhile back, you may remember me mentioning a PPIS website. Well, that day is finally no longer a myth. You can check it out here: http://www.mattfowler.biz/ppis

Yes, I know, not real fancy just linking off of my site. But, I figure this will be a good place to at least start a site. The band isn’t popular enough just yet for me to purchase a domain name for it. Though, this may happen in the near future. Just be watching out.

Other good news, Internet Explorer 8 apparently has something against me. Or Microsoft… Pretty much, when running this new feature “compatibility mode” my site crashes. Displays a connecton error.On Vista and XP Users.  Have no idea why. I have contacted Microsoft and heard nothing back. My host says its nothing on their end.

I sent an email to the designer of the layout for my site, and still waiting for their reply. I am hoping it is just a simple scripting problem I am overlooking.

Other than that, everything is going good and I am  done typing..

Powermat?

Anybody heard anything about Powermats? I mean I understand that it is something inside the back panels that connects wirelessly to the mat.  Something tells me it’s not safe. Could be wrong.

Little pricey, but I guess it’s a little worth it.

$99.99 Powermat Portable Recharging Mat.
Target or Best Buy

$29.99 iPhone or iPod Touch “receivers”

And $29.99 for a DS too! Yeah!
It sounds great, but it just almost seems like something that would either get your phone hot — and you know the problems that follow that. And then maybe it would screw up the charging system. Maybe thinking that it is fully charged when it’s not. I do know that when you have a constant WiFi connection the battery power is pleh (new word) on phones. Does just fine on iPhone/iPod Touch and DS. :D

Hurrah! I hope it’s legit and non damaging…because…I want it.
It will make my blackberry, however, even less pocket friendly. Sadness on a silver platter.

I want one but I just wonder how legit they are. Not that it’s a scam, but maybe. Give it some thought at least.

Let me know what you think.

Stride Gum: You have an enemy!

You may be long lasting, but there is still one thing out there that complete knocks out the flavor at one try! That my friends, is cigarettes.

Some of you are probably thinking (Well DUHHH), but I am just happy to have found one killer of this extreme long lasting flavorful gum.

So ha!

Gone For A Week!

Hi There! Just writing a little post before I get started on packing.  I will be gone from June 2nd (tomorrow morning at 7, I leave) until June 10th.

I am taking a trip to Michigan to watch my two cousins graduate. (One High school – the other 8th grade)

Wish me the best on my trip!
