Wheres My Prize
I read on the package and all the signs, and it says 1 in 4 is a winner, but I have 6 tickets here, and I didn’t win

Upload Speed, No Problem
Ok apparently I’m special, in more then then short bus way, everyone else is having problems with the upload speed of their iPhones, on the AT&T network. It seems I have fallen into some strange parallel universe, where I had good coverage before, I now have bad coverage, and where I had bad coverage, I now have good coverage, the examples are at home and work, had good 3-4 bars at home and 1-2 bars at work, unless NAS Oceania is flying, then its 1 if I’m lucky, but it doesn’t matter the planes pretty much drown out any attempted conversation…
At work this morning I had 454kbs of download and 1270kbs of upload
this evening at home I had a 143kbs download and 668kbs upload
Don’t really care if it’s AT&T’s fault, Or Lucent Acaltel, or the man on the moon, just wish someone wuold man up and own the freaking problem…
It Made It….
Well after 3 full weeks my package finally made it to kansas, I think that when I looked it up in google maps, I could have walked it there in about the same time frame…
Thankfully Garmin used UPS ground to ship it back, and it only took three days to travel the distance.
I guess the irony in the whole situation is that it was a broken GPS that got lost….
Why The U.S. Postal Service Will Fail
The US Postal Service is the model of efficiency, I shipped a package on the 7th of May, and apparently it likes the Chicago area, because it is on its third visit there….
In roughly the same time it takes Federal Express to move roughly 1 Million iPads from China, the USPS can’t move 1 freaking GPS unit from Virginia Beach Virginia to Olathe Kansas…

We really need to stop supporting the incompetence that is the USPS and let FedEx and UPS handle it, and shut down the post office…
Waiting again
Waiting again 45 minutes…
The skylight in the waiting room…
The exam room, after I fell asleep only to wake up 30 minutes later…
Still waiting…
Finally found someone, and I was given the standard excuse that there was someone “really sick” that they were working with… It was the medical standard way of saying we overbooked, and now were trying to make you feel bad for being pissed for being ignored…..
What do you think the response from this office will be, if I walk in 45 minutes late for my next appointment, and tell them I was really busy, working on something for my boss…
It will be, sorry you’re going to have to reschedule, and were going to have to charge you for an office visit…
