Happy Holidays for anyone who reads this blog. I've tried to put some of my thoughts in here, and it's hard to all of a sudden just throw up a Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas blog, since for some reason, it's the last thing I've been thinking about.

Happy Holidays for anyone who reads this blog. I’ve tried to put some of my thoughts in here, and it’s hard to all of a sudden just throw up a Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas blog, since for some reason, it’s the last thing I’ve been thinking about. Maybe it’s because I’m going to Japan in a couple of days, or maybe it’s something else.

The idiots of T-Mobile. So my Blackberry 8700g acts up and goes to white screen every so often. So I call T Mobile tech support, they have me download two types of software, and neglect to ask any questions about my computer. I use a Mac. The files download and it's obvious it's not going to work with my system. I call back and talk to tech support guy #2 who tells me that I need Pocket Mac,...
