Would it be wrong to fake my own funeral? Of course it would be. But i woudl be curious as to what people would say. Who would show up? Who would NOT show up? Would there be a two drink minimum?
In High Fedelity Rob says, "Songs at my funeral: Many Rivers to Cross by Jimmy Cliff, Angel by Aretha Franklin, and I've always had this fantasy that some beautiful, tearful woman would insist on You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me by Gladys Knight. But who would that woman be?" But I would have to go with tearjerkers like Amazing Grace and the like. Gotta get some tearage. Don't want too much of the "celebrate his life" stuff. Although, Pakes [who would show up, damn it!] would probably tell some pretty good bar stories that surely would get some laughs.
Hmmm, what would you say about me at my funeral?
While I was working Sunday, two very intoxicated men came into the store asking for directions to the local tire store. Despite their insistence, I knew of no tire store nearby. These guys can barely stand. They are incredibly drunk.
I watched them leave and then head out to their car in the parking lot that had a flat tire. After a bit of stumbling around, they seem to realize that there is a spare tire in the trunk of their car. This is when i call the local police to tell them about a couple of drunks [who are still drinking BTW] changing the tire on their car with the intent of leaving.
Fort Collins is not that big. One can drive from one end to the other is 20 minutes. Maybe 30 if traffic is rough. More than an hour later, these drunks are no longer in the parking lot. I had watched them while I wasn't working and they were having a lot of trouble figuring out how to work the jack.
An hour ofter I called, they were still working on the tire and still drinking and still stumbling around. The police? No where to be seen. In fact, I did not see any police the whole day.
What a joke. The Fort Collins Police suck.
I think today is the bikini swimsuit's birthday. Haaaaappy birthday!
Oh, it's not the new iPhone 3Gs that is the problem, it's the weather. And all these people with discolored and too hot to touch your face iPhones thought it was the phone over-heating.
My phone does get hot when it is accessing the word a lot. When I'm surfing the web and downloading apps and have the bluetooth on at the same time, the bottom inch or so of the phone gets warm. Also, when plugged in to charge, it will get warm in the same area when I'm surfing the web. But nothing as hot as some of these reports.
So hot that the white case is discoloring? That is hot. Now, the reports that iPhones are getting so hot one cannot place them next to one's face, seemed like it might be an exaggeration. But if temperatures are getting to the point that cases are warping and bubbling and discoloring, I wouldn't want that next to my face either.
The fact that the phone has an overheat warning makes me realize that apple knew this would be an issue. Which totally sounds like a Dilbert cartoon – "Our product is hurting out consumers." "Make it a feature." – and not like apple. Steve Jobs must have been out of the office when that issue came up.
Hmmm, lettuce sandwich or peanut butter sandwich?
I guess it is time to go grocery shopping.
So, Phil's California is a bit to much in this video and it is an ad for one of his DVDs [the guy only made around 50 million last year, so, he needs to sell them] and shot is shot but ... wow, what a neat shot.
