At least according to this little survey (takes like five to 10 minutes to complete). I was fairly even all across the board in how I learn.
Then again I have always been a balanced learner. I remember getting tested for this kind of thing back in grade school and I was even across the board like this.
Anyways it was fun to do again even though the questioning is a little odd to me. A lot of answers come up as “Sometimes” for me.
Ah, ever since my old laptop died back in the early part of summer I have been waiting around for a new update to Apple’s notebook line. Today they updated with lots of new goodies. I really want one but will probably have to wait another month or two.
Nine months are down, finished, over in 2008. Already three-forths the way through here this year. Man, it is true what they say, the older you get the faster time flies. Summer was here and then there (thankfully the heat went with it) and now we are moving into Fall…well most of the country is at least. Texas Fall starts in like late November and last a couple weeks.
So what’s going on here? The economy stinks as usual, which is causing my daily work to get interesting with clients and the company I work for. Money appears to be getting tight for everyone. It’s a shame really, because I never really know what to think about money and the economy. Some parts do well, while others suffer.
A circle of life I suppose.
I’m honestly not too terribly worried over it all though. I realized at the start of the year that it was going to be an interesting one.
Time will tell as always though.
I am coming to you all tonight from the road! Gotta love being able to blog anywhere these days, even without a computer! Yup, I’m on my phone blogging!
Anyways, Becca and I are on our way to Austin for ACL. I may try to blog more on my phone while I am there.
I cannot even begin to say how excited I have been for this week. Monday saw the return of all of CBS’s great comedies and tonight NBC gets to take it’s turn on the series premiers. My Name Is Earl and The Office start back up tonight!
I am a bit more excited for The Office to begin it’s fifth season. After last year’s writer’s strike, which left most TV shows in limbo for a while, I wondered how well this show would respond. They came back in April after the strike and did not disappoint. I see that happening again tonight with their series premier.
Next week we get some more season debuts as ABC kicks off Wednesday with Private Practice and Pushing Daisies.
So nice to have solid TV back on again, the summer was rather dull because of it. If I can I will talk a bit more later on about The Office and why I love it so much.
Yeah, its been a few days..or a couple weeks if you are keeping score at home since my last post. Just wanted to write a quick update on a few things:
Okay, that’s all for now.
You know what that is? The sound of politics at work. Both Barrack Obama and John McCain have picked their VPs or running mates. Both are rather amusing, just like this Presidential race.
Obama went with Delaware Senator Joe Biden. A man who is more known for his wild and crazy comments like about Rudy Giuliani in the primary season. He said Giuliani says three things in a sentence, “a noun, a verb and 9/11”. Tough comments, but an interesting choice nonetheless by Obama.
McCain went for Alaskian Govenor Sarah Palin. Obviously he is wanting those Hillary Clinton voters by taking a women as his running mate. Bold move, not sure if it will pay off in the end though.
We will see. I still think we could have done better than these two but then again we always say that about our President.
Most people know I am an iPhone lover. I’ve had an iPhone since about this time last year and I absolutely love it. This year I got even more hyped up about my phone’s potential awesomeness with the new App Store that Apple unveiled back in July. I had pretty much been waiting on it all year, even though my phone was jailbroken and had some 3rd party apps on it before then.
Since the App Store came out I have probably flooded my phone with cool and exciting things. But it wasn’t all peachy and sweet. Before the ‘2.0’ software came out with the App Store the phone worked flawlessly. Hardly any bumps in the road and only a need of a reset from time to time.
With the App Store came bugs, and lots of them. Apple has had two “bug fix” updates since July with more on the way. Its almost like the phone software went from stable and awesome to crazy and annoying.
I love many of the features but day after day some bugs appear out of no where. Just today I read that there was a new security bug with the phone. Great! Just what we all need, people hacking out phones in midair. Apple is expected to patch it up once more just as they have always done.
I just miss that stablity with this phone. It’s still the best thing I’ve ever bought for myself but the bugs get quite annoying from time to time. At least they don’t interupt my playing of de Blob!
Rigby
I know I haven’t talked about this at all but recently Becca and I got a new puppy! He is a ladradoodle (so a Lab and Poodle mix) and his name is Rigby (think Beatles for the naming).
He’s a little ankle biter but what else can you expect from a puppy. I will try to post more photos of him shortly. I am going to be doing a new gallery thing on here to try to get my photos to display a little more fluidly. It may take some time but since I’ve been messing around the with Lakeview site I found some neat things to do photos with that I want to try on here as well.
…above that is. Yeah, I was asked recently to do a website make over for my local church (Lakeview Community Church). So I’ve gone out and got the church a new domain (since their old one expired) and some quality hosting (something that probably wasn’t with the old site anyways).
Check out the progress at lakeview-church.org.
