One of those sick days

Not a bad start for the Bruins
Posted by: | Comments
I’m certainly not ready to admit I’m wrong yet, but the Bruins are doing pretty well so far. Their West Coast road trip is over and they came out with a winning record.
The Bruins lost to the Stars and the Ducks, but they picked up wins against the Coyotes, Kings and the Sharks. They were shaky in a few of the games with Tim Thomas holding them in a couple of games.
I think the goalie situation is the most surprising. Manny was brought in to be the number 1 netminder, but he hasn’t done very well so far. He let in four goals against the stars and six against the Kings. Even though they won the Kings game, it still wasn’t a good showing.
Marc Savard has started off well, as has Bergeron and Kessel. Milan Lucic has be doing pretty good too, but Glen Murray is absent so far.
Coming off a road trip with a winning record is always a good thing. We’ll see how they do at home starting next week.
Another Friday…
Posted by: | CommentsAnother friggin’ bad day. Jesus I’m getting tired of having bad days on Fridays. I may stay in bed next Friday just to see what happens.
A $1.2 billion iPhone lawsuit
Posted by: | CommentsYou have got to be kidding me! These two people are allowed to bring a lawsuit against Apple and AT&T for $1.2 billion?
I don’t agree with a lot of what Apple has been doing with the iPhone and third-party applications, but I do agree that they should be able to lock the iPhone if they want. They have been very open about their deal with AT&T, so if you buy the phone, you know you’ll be using AT&T — deal with it.
But come on, $1.2 billion? These people and their lawyers should be made to pay for being so friggin’ retarded.
Boston trip wasn’t so smooth
Posted by: | CommentsOkay, so my trip to Boston yesterday was great — until I tried to get home. I said last night that my plane was delayed an hour, but it was delayed two more times before we finally left. I was getting really pissed off by the time I got on the plane, but I did calm down when I got home. It was 4:00 am when I got to bed.
Leaving Boston
Posted by: | CommentsThis was a really quick trip. I got up this morning at 4:00 am and got to the airport for my flight to Boston. After I meeting downtown and a few beer with friends, I headed back to the airport to go home. It’s 7:00 pm now and the flight has been delayed by one hour.
Competitors take advantage of closed iPhone
Posted by: | Comments
Now that Apple has effectively killed third-party application development for the iPhone, its competitors are touting how open they are. And you know what, it’s a damn good strategy for them to take.
Nokia and Microsoft have both come out saying that they are open and that’s the best way to be. “We believe the best devices have no limits. That’s why we’ve left the Nokia NSeries open. Open to applications. Open to Widgets. Open to anything,” says the homepage of Nokia’s new Web site.
Now before anyone gets all pissed off and starts sending me friggin’ email that I’ll delete, think about this. Apple had a whole community of people writing applications for the iPhone and it didn’t have to support them at all. What was the one thing Apple did do for them? Kick them in the teeth.
How to make people angry
