Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Um. Sean? I was joking too. Totally being snarky and silly right backatcha. Sorry it didn't come off. I posted with extreme snark pre-coffee. That was my first mistake, I think.

Okay. I'm having a oversensitive day, apparently. Nevermind, then. Sorry about the off-topic.

I'm having Airport Express issues.
I plugged it in, plugged the USB printer in, and ran the Airport Setup Utility so it would connect to our home network.
Now, not only can I not find the printer on the network, I can't even find the freaking Airport. The setup utility can't find it either as an existing Airport on the network, or as a new one to install.
WTF?
[eta - FINALLY! All hail the hard reset.]

Looking at the phones on Virgin Mobile's website, some use "Superphonic Ringtones" and some use "Real Music Ringtones". Anyone know what audio formats these are?
t edit More poking around the Virgin Mobile website seems to indicate that "Superphonic" and "Real Music" are the same thing. But I still would like to know the audio format. Are they just mp3s?

Still more poking about indicates that they can in fact be mp3s, as well as several other formats. Yippee!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Cool. I have never bothered to mess with my ringtones, so I know nothing about it. But I've always wanted to use something from Philip Glass's Einstein on the Beach as a ringtone....

The problem with Virgin (and correct me if I'm wrong) is that you have to buy ringtones from them and selection is limited (i.e. you probably won't find anything by Philip Glass). But I've been poking around some cellphone hacking sites to see how easy it is to connect their phones to a computer to bypass Virgin and copy ringtones myself. I'm thinking of getting the Cyclops camera phone, and I've found that it's easily doable.
I haven't found anything definitive on the Switch_back.

Hey! I just discovered that Radio Shack has the Cyclops for $10 less than Virgin's website price ($70 vs. $80). As I haven't been outside all day, it's the perfect opportunity to take a walk and see if my local franchisee has it in stock!
