Previously I wrote about things I liked, didn’t like and a few suggestions about my Droid X.  Here are some more suggestions – things that would make this pretty great phone that much better. Enable copying phone numbers, email addresses, etc. directly from contact screen.  Currently I have to edit the contact to be able […]

This is so freaking funny!  I’ve seen this before, but had to post it here to have it close by. This hits the nail on the head with the boneheads that drink the Apple Koolaid – that have to have an iPhone because they are so cool. WARNING: contains “adult” language – a few well-placed […]

On a whim I just checked for system updates for my Droid X and to my great surprise and pleasure 2.3.340 (is it Gingerbread?) is available.  I’m downloading it as I write.  Once it’s installed and I have a chance to check it out I’ll post more here. . . Unfortunately it’s not Gingerbread, but it […]

Dear Blockbuster, You and your partners in crime (Motorola and Verizon) can all kiss my ass! It upsets me when crapware is installed on any device, but when I can’t remove it […]

Why?  Why the hell would firefighters in Michigan waste their time, more importantly precious resources to rescue a nuisance like a coyote?  How many thousands of dollars of tax money were wasted to save this animal?  Absolutely ridiculous! Coyote’s are a pest, often killed to keep them from molesting domestic animals like chickens, cows and family […]

This article from Macon, GA details the plight of poor souls who aren’t able to get “assistance” to pay their utility bills to heat there houses.  Pictured below is Raymeica Kelly who explains how her mother, sister and herself were turned away from the Energy Assistance Program last Wednesday morning after standing in line for four […]

McDonalds is so evil Monet Parham with the help of The Center for Science in the Public Interest is sueing them, trying to make them stop luring unsuspecting kids with crappy plastic toys or at least make their Happy Meals healthier.  Ms. Parham is so tired of actually parenting and fighting her young daughter to eat something […]
