FTSwindle (For The Swindle)

You have reached a stage in your life, now you have the Big Boy life.  Big Boy clothes, Big Boy job, and Big Boy problems.  You have come up in life.  So with this Big Boy life, you need a reliable car to travel it work to and while keeping and succeeding in that Big Boy career. You could get a new Big Boy car, but you came across the car you have always dreamed of.  It's one of them cars that's one of a kind special but it's used.  And you can only afford one car.  You are faced with the choice of your dream car or going out and looking for a new car to settle on to get you to work and your future.  But it's your dream car and it's the car you always wanted so you go with that despite it being older and having 100,000 miles already.  You are happy, you are living your dream.  The moments you have it you are loving it and can't imagine how you was getting by without it before.  Then suddenly, the problems become greater and more frequent.  Your future is in jeopardy, it's not reliable.  After the fact, you check the Carfax report and see it had several previous owners that didn't take care of it.  Internal problems, accidents, failed maintenance, just a lack of regard for taking care of.  After seeing the report it's hard to view the car the same way, you start noticing problem and flaws you didn't see before.  It's your dream car so you still hold on hope even against the odds.  You pay for maintenance and repairs.  You take care of the car like it should.  But still the car turns on you and dies.  So now you are stuck having to go out and find another car because you need one.  Odds are after feeling burned, you won't go used again but after spending all the time and money it will be hard to afford the brand new car that you would want.  So you are faced with either settling with a new reliable car that you really don't love that much but it does what you need it to do with no problems or going used again and rolling the dice on the damages that it may have.

The Hard Question is:  Was that brief joy of owning your dream car worth all the later hardships and setbacks?

American Samoa Is Now On My Help Radar

American Samoa is US territory (think like Puerto Rico, but less independent).  The population is about the size of Washington, DC.  And they have a larger than average percentage of people in the NFL and in US military service.  Basically, good people.  They live under the poverty line and in 2007 laws were passed giving the islands minimum wage.  It's would grow slowly every year until it reached the same as here on the mainland.  The main provider of the economy of American Samoa is tuna, everyone there worked for one of the 2-3 tuna companies.  Well Chicken of Sea packed up ship and moved from there because they didn't want to pay minimum wages and moved closer to home, Georgia.  So StarKist is the only company left to employ the citizens there and have started laying off people.  I am no longer buying Chicken of Sea tuna, I'm going strictly StarKist tuna. I believe in minimum wage and fair employment so I will support them being able to employ them even at additional cost. Especially if it mean helping out poor people by providing them with the same equal benefits that I enjoy and not necessary hand outs.  Basically I rather give a dollar to the homeless guy that washes my windows or pumps my gas than the guy the just sits there with a cup.  One is trying to normal.  Hopefully, StarKist doesn't pack up and leave the islands jobless.

*Sidebar* it's still FUCK WALMART!  My beef with them ain't no where near over!

Look At A Young Will Wash!

On a day of bitching and a Stock Market crash, the CB3 (Cambridge Hall, Third Floor) homie Loco, aka Damon send me this youtube gem.  I remember my folks saying they saw me on TV but I didn’t think much of it, this is before DVRs. 
0:41 seconds in... a skinny young Will Wash with the bush and huge sweatshirt and again at 0:51

Being one of the mascots was the greatest experience of my youth. Shout to my partner Ian Murphy and The University of Maryland Cheerleaders.  LET’S GO TERPS!!!

Fun Fact: FEAR THE TURTLE was started by Ian.

Ever Felt A Disturbance In The Force?

There are times in your life where everything looks good on paper, but your gut is telling you something is not right.  The hard question is what do you do?  Even though everything seems great you have a strong feeling it’s not going to last.

Personally, I am feeling a disturbance in the Force, like in the Star Wars movies.  The world is not inline.  Not just on a global level but more so on a personal level.  I am blessed to have a healthy family, a good job, a good girl, and a wonderful set of friends but yet something is not quite right and it didn’t always feel like this.  I still do the same things everyday but they don’t feel the same.  Almost like the loneliness in a crowded room feeling… Don’t worry I’m not suicidal or nothing haha, my life is good.  I just thought I would share the feelings of being on autopilot.  I’m sure it will pass or there will be the epic movie climax that follows a disturbance in the Force to signal the end of something.

Another Reason Amazon Rules

As I mention before I got an iPad for my birthday, one major feature is the ebook reader call iBook.  I tried it out and it was nice and all but there wasn’t any books in the Apple iBookstore that I wanted to read, so I was still buying real books on Amazon.com and at Borders.  I get recommendations for stuff to read all the time and so one day my friend Ingo suggests a money book to read.  Having the new iPad, first I look for it on iBookstore but it doesn’t have it.  Then I look on Amazon and of course it’s there but they also have a electronic version (Kindle version) for half of the paper book cost.  And FTW Amazon has now released a iPad app of the Kindle software and Kindle software for a bunch of other Operating Systems...all free!  Including iPhone, Windows, Mac, and BlackBerry with more on the way.  Along with many free e-books.

So I was like what the hell, let me compare the Apple book reading to the Amazon.  Apple’s software is slightly nicer, I like the highlighting text feature but good Lord, Amazon has so many books available.  I got a couple of technical programming books for half the cost of off the self that are close to existing in iBookstore yet also some random books ranging from free unheard of novels to how to books.

But here is what caused me to post this and share.  Last night I was reading on the iPad and placed a bookmark and then flipped some pages ahead to see how far I had to go for the chapter and turn it off.  This morning I’m at my work computer, I install and open the Kindle Software for windows because I want to look at the book I was reading and try some of the exercises. One the book share unlike iTunes and shit where it’s linked to a device.  Instead it’s linked to my Amazon log in. So I see all my purchases, when I open the book in particular it jumps straight to the page I left off at which was the pages ahead.  I click bookmarks and all my bookmarks are there.  Everything is synced. I love it.  Now i just need a Kindle Software version for my Windows Mobile cell phone which I think I saw as set for release on April 29th. This will make books easily available in boring moments and no more lugging around my big programming books.

Why Do You Like Them?

Growing up in the Washington DC area as Cowboys fan I am frequently asked why or how am I a Cowboy’s fan.  I challenge, how are you a Redskin fan?  It is better to be a fan of any other team in the league.  If it’s because it’s the home team then take responsibility for them.

The Redskin name is an insult to America and I can simply tell you why.  You shouldn’t be proud of them until the organization becomes something to be proud of.  Please answer this, would you walk around with a New York Kikes Jersey with a trademark Image like this:

No, right?

What about the Atlanta Niggers, Miami Chinks, or Los Angeles Spics merchandise?  Man, everyone minority group would be angry if an organization did something like that.  And at the nation’s capital at that.  Just because America has nearly wiped out the Native American population doesn’t mean that it’s ok.  They don’t like the Redskin name it is just as insulting as being called a cracker, chink, nigger, spic, towel head or another derogatory racial slur.  The Redskin team being in Washington, DC is a disgrace to the multiculturalism of the United States and constant reminder of what is not great about this country and the way it’s citizens treats one another.  It would less offensive if it wasn’t in the capital but in some “redneck” city where we may expect such overt racism.  So Redskin fans that want to retire the n-word but what about the red-word?

Yes as a Cowboys fan, I do feel a moral superiority because I made a choice not to support racism.

I Got An iPad!

I don’t think I have felt more pressure to write than I have today, so I present…my impressions of the new Apple iPad.  Let me first start off by saying thanks to Susan for the awesome birthday present (Wayne’s World voice, “I’m not worthy!”).  Second, this device is a the start of a new generation of mobile devices.  This son of a bitch is pretty, fast, light, and as smooth as watery shit.  The interface is  surprise responsive.  And so easy and simple to a fault at least for me.

This is probably the finest piece of technology I have had the pleasure of playing with since the xbox 360...not Playstation 3 though (it wasn’t ground breaking).  I can’t help but think this is the future of computing because it works so well.  There are small minor problems like the glare on the screen, no multitasking, no usb ports, and expensive 3G but the biggest problem is that it a toy.  It’s not a tool for me.  It’s not for everyone.  Let me see if I can explain this…It can be used by anyone but it’s not for everyone.  After an hour of playing with it, loading apps, I’m left holding it wondering what am I going to do with this.  All the things that’s it’s good at doing I have stuff that does it better or I don’t need it.  Right now the ebook reader is what excites me most, but the types of books I read are not available in the ebook from yet (mostly technical programming books).  Web browsing is good, but I prefer a computers, the whole right-click and saving thing; also I like multiple windows when I surf the web.  I lost my ipod and didn’t notice for 9 months so I’m not looking for a 9 inch ipod.  Netflix and videos are better seen on the big ass tvs I love dearly.  I don’t travel enough to need the 3G version and when I am home I don’t need the wifi device because i am at home and have the access and the device is not an improvement on my already existing setup.  Maybe if I didn’t already have the stuff I have, this would be a godsend.  Basically, to get the most out this device you need to look at your lifestyle and see if you can use it.  Because it’s not an laptop you can’t install just anything on it.  If there is something you want to use it for then you would need either an app or an web app for it.  That’s what I will use it for to test for make my own apps.  But don’t let the hype fool you into thinking it’s just a bigger iphone, it kind of is but it kicks the phones ass with it’s eyes close.  This bitch is several times bigger and 60% faster.  Browsing the web on your cellphone after using this is some caveman shit. This device will make most new phones look like flip phones after the smart phones came out.

Missing I would like to see:

• OS sandbox to install software outside of the app store.
• Lower the owning cost, from the $30 per month for 3G to $9-$15 books, $5-$15 apps, $2 comics, $3-$15 games.  It’s setup to make you buy everything from the overpriced iTunes Store.
• I would greatly like a webcam
• get rid of the glare and fingerprints, I mean we can put a man on the moon but we ain’t got fingerprint proof screens yet.
• I need a way to program and write software on it.

I’m not done yet, only had it for a day…might change my mind on some things.

E-40 is $16 on itunes and $8 on Amazon…

 

Internet Browsing is so pretty on the iPad.

And there is a bunch of news apps for the news junkies.

Excellent E-Reader

And tons of apps for whatever you like…
