@haslinaali @techmiso haha, good point. it is quite ironic, all things considered. although it shows we’re unbiased, no? :P

Only after 10 mins of tinkering do I finally now realize how to “open” this godforsaken thumb drive gmac handed me. How fscking stupid am I?

Akishima station sure is inundated with a lot of sights I would not otherwise have expected from a station essentially in BFE.

@jamescosta I wouldn’t upgrade. Just if I were to, I’d personally hit the 32GB version. OS upgrade does seem noticeably slower.

Noticing a lot of wifi funkiness with iPhone OS 3.0. Sometimes wifi doesn’t even turn on even though my 1G iTouch connects just fine.

@jamescosta I have the 16GB iPhone 3G. Love it to death. But if I were to get an iPhone 3GS it would definitely be the 32GB model.

Moby - Pale Horses EP simply rocks. I do not always agree with his politics, but Moby is damn near a musical genius.

@AnApesfate I believe that is only for new customers not potential upgraders. At 2300/mo it makes the device 55200, definitely not worth it.

Grilling: Barbecue Beans

I'm going out on a limb here, because this is technically not barbecue, or grilling. But there are few other sides so ubiquitous with both as barbecue beans. Although tastes vary widely across the nation, I can't think of a barbecue joint I've been that has not had beans on their menu, and it's also, rightfully, one of the most frequent sides cooked up in my house.

It's hard for me to fire up the smoker without making a batch of these beans—especially since I can just throw them in with whatever is smoking and let them cook, low and slow, until the perfect balance of flavor and tenderness is achieved. It takes a good six hours or so for this to happen, but patience is well rewarded, with a deeply sweet and meaty tasting bean that has just the right touch of heat to balance it all out.

Heading out to mow the lawn (no, that is *not* a metaphor for anything sexual) while the temperature is not too hot.

@AnApesfate By paying upfront there is no monthly cost for the device though SoftBank will try to get you locked in for 24mo.

Just got back from Transformers. Fun movie but nowhere in the same league as the first. Megan Fox was hot as always though.

@lenardpo I was told by one Softbank rep it would be ¥2300/mo for the upgrade from 16 to 32 with 13mo left on contract.

@mobileinjapan I was told by one Softbank rep it would be ¥2300/mo for the upgrade from 16 to 32 with 13mo left on contract.

Does anyone have any invites for Google Voice? If you do, I would greatly appreciate it if you could pass one my way. http://ff.im/4ucLS
