My Grandmother, Tran Thi On, passed away this day, May 24th, 2010. I still find grief hard to express.

March 1, 1925 - May 24, 2010

From Jon Stewart of The Daily Show:

"...if you wanna break down someone's door, why don't you start with AT&T, for God sakes? They make your amazing phone unusable as a phone! I mean, seriously! How do you drop four calls in a one-mile stretch of the West Side Highway! There're no buildings around! What, does the open space confuse AT&T's signal?!"

I've known this for a long time, but this just proves my point. Does anyone have the right to take away another person's dignity? Kevin Smith doesn't think so and neither do I. There are better ways to enforce your policies, than to be rude about it. I don't fly Southwest because of their cattle heard mentality and procedures, but now I'm making it a point not to fly with them in the future. I doubt they care. If they don't care about customer service, then they definitely don't care if I fly with them or not.

Take a listen to Kevin Smith's Podcast regarding his recent experience. If anything it'll be entertaining.

I'm really liking the iPhoto Faces feature. The accuracy is amazing, almost makes the Hollywood plots feasible. Having those tags carry over to Facebook is a huge bonus. If you don't have iPhoto '09 you should get it. If you don't have a Mac you should get one.

Did you know that bookmarks in your "Bookmarks Bar" can be executed via a keyboard shortcut?

cmd+1 will execute the first bookmark
cmd+2 will execute the second bookmark
cmd+3 will execute the third bookmark
etc...

This does not apply to bookmark folders. I haven't verified, but I believe it only goes from 1-9.

It's been a year and I'm still going to the gym 4 days a week. The weight loss has stabilized, but I feel I'm building muscle and maintaining my weight. I'm a little afraid that if I stop, it'll go downhill very fast.

I started a weight loss routine back in January to get back in shape and lose weight. Most of the impetus was due to the fact that my Term Life Insurance was twice what it should be. That's crazy! Since the company I work for, Shopzilla, Inc., was paying for my gym membership, I thought I'd take advantage of it. After the first 3 months, I lost about 10lbs. It stayed about that for the next 2 months. I then started kick-boxing and lost another 11lbs in the last 2 months. Kick-boxing really helped a lot with increasing cardio and strength training.

Changing your diet helps even more.

Now I just need to figure out how to lose 110lbs of wife.

Hell on Earth!
