Ooh'. I am!
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I thought it looked neat, until I noticed how all the pictures and videos of it working are close-ups with the top of the pen out of frame. I have the sneaky suspicion that you have to manually push the plastic dowel through pen with your other hand. It's kind of a glorified glue gun.

All is well that ends in pizza.
If anyone runs into a working motherboard for a Dell Inspiron 1545 for under $20 let me know. I'm randomly checking eBay and Craigslist, but you never know.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I gave my sister my Galaxy Nexus phone that I bought internationally, and it won't recognise a Jamaican SIM. I bought it internationally because of the lock question--what could be stopping it? Would the fact that she used the SIM in an old style Blackberry be relevant?
I am thinking this is something she needs to chase down in JA, though. It shouldn't be a phone problem...
(Her BB connects to TMobile (my provider) seamlessly when she's here. I don't know.)

Hey. New board.
Near as I can tell, there's no reason it shouldn't work. My guess is it's something with the SIM, not the phone.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She's tried 2 separate account SIMs now (one not BB), so I told her to take it to her provider.

Would any folks with TomTom around these parts be interested in the news that Brian Blessed's voice is now available for the service? [link]

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
That's kind of awesome - my current GPS persona is called Karen (by me, I can't remember what TomTom named her), but she hasn't got even a smidgen of his personality. Might be time for an upgrade...
