Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
DH finally realized I bought a new phone. I got tired of dealing with his RAZR. After a Qwerty keyboard, I'm ruined for texting on a regular phone.
I reupped with Alltel because of their buyout with Verizon. The reception's been better and I'm loving the BB. I still want to see a CDMA version of the iPhone. If that's going to happen, it should happen in the next two years so I can wait.
Allyson, I love the idea of an atom tattoo.
My FaceBook status updates end up boring because I have to run them through the work-filter and the mom-filter.
That can be tricky.
. . . is very upset about an unspecified political position, gosh darn it.
I assume he submitted for review? I'm just not that brave. REJECTION MAKES ME FEEL SAD!
Seriously, I still have my Ira Glass rejection letter to remind me I suck when I get uppity.
I think I need to buy this watch.
~ma, Dana!
No idea. Before he became story writer boy, last I heard he had finished law school and was working crazy hours. I knew he had wanted to quit and write instead (our parents know each other), just didn't know he'd actually done it.
I think I need to buy this watch.
That is cool!
I had a neat pocket watch once, but I went to the flea market and bought a cow-belly magnet and put it in the same pocket as the pocket watch, and that was the end of that....
eta: No such thing as a flee market, right?
My current wristwatch has been living more or less permanently in my purse for several weeks. I think it's time to move on.
EWG has released a review of research on cell phone radiation. Among other things:
A joint study by researchers in Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom found that people who had used cell phones for more than 10 years had a significantly increased risk of developing glioma, a usually malignant brain tumor, on the side of the head they had favored for cell phone conversations[link]
They also have a database of phones & PDAs so you can see how much radation your tech emits. My phone is pretty bad, boo. But I barely use it.
Huh. The iPhone is pretty bad, but I wonder if that's mitigated by the fact that I hardly ever use it as a phone?
