i Very Am

Still protesting after all these days.

I just finished adding “Please do not censor the web!” banner to my personal site at iVeryAm.com using only CSS.

Dear Congress, please do not censor the web!

In solidarity with many who oppose Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect IP Act (PIPA), I’m blanking out my personal site.

Thanks to Grassroutes for providing the widget to contact local representatives about SOPA and PIPA.

Reflected, Distorted.

In a hallway somewhere…….

No Apple, I did not sign that particular NDA.

So I heard some non-denial from an Apple manager this past weekend. I can only guess what the next iPad and iPhone going to be, in that order. There were also some laughter about the iPad 3 in March followed by iPad 4 in October rumor.

I can say that I’m excited about the next iPhone after iPhone 4S.

Take it with a grain of salt.

That’s not a parking spot at all.

Ever wonder what the red-painted curb is for? I thought it’s a no parking zone.

Triple A.

No, it has nothing to do with High Expectations Asian Father meme. I went to a local AAA office to take care of a few things earlier today.

“AAA?

Why not AAAA?”

…and your point is?

The following are conversations I had on the first Tuesday of 2012:

Customer service is important.
That’s a good wine.
That’s a good cheese.
Mitt Romney, Ron Paul and Rick Santorum; in no particular order.
Inflation and the Fall of Roman Empire.

Fade to what?

Can’t tell if the left hand is so fast…

… or camera’s ISO setting is low.

IMAP and Exchange.

2012 and “2012″.

As I have mentioned before, I am watching “2012″ the movie to welcome 2012 the year. Few things come to mind:

In 2012 Barack Obama is the President of The United States. In “2012″ Danny Glover is the President of The United States.
On January 1st, 2012 Japan was hit by a magnitude 7 earthquake. In “2012″ Japan was hit by earthquake.

Other things about “2012″ the movie:

Hey, that’s “The Operative” who kicked Malcolm Reynold’s ass in Serenity.
That one guy played “The Guru” from The Guru.
John Cusack, wasn’t he in a lot of movies? I just watched Hot Tub Time Machine a few days ago.
That’s the kid who played young Shawn in Psych.
There’s Woody from Cheers.
Dr. Phlox of Star Trek: Enterprise made an appearance.
That’s one bad Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions. By the way, Schwarzenegger is no longer California Governor in 2012.
