I finally made it to the Apple store to get the composite video cable to connect my iPhone to my TV. Alex gas had one for ages, and now that I have a modern iPod on my iPhone I was really interested to see how it would work. I tested an episode of Kath and Kim that I gave on the iPhone as well as…
September 13, 2008September is a busy month here at Club Josh. Once again, I have wanted to move out of my apartment for someplace nice. I even went out and looked at buying a condo or even just moving to a nice area like Irvine or some of the new places in Anaheim closer to work. I got really excited over a development in Colony Park in…
September 3, 2008It has been almost a month since I switched over to the new 3G iPhone and I have a few opinions I would like to share: Likes: The look and feel and ease of use Ability to customize ringtones with Garage Band Easy to check my emails on multiple accounts Great web-surfing ability Visual Voicemail It’s so easy to put people on hold and answer…
August 20, 2008I finished porting the entire What’s New section into Movable Type. It only took me 5 years or so since I started using Movable Type to get it done, but as we all know never hold you breath when waiting for me to do something on the site. I have always had big plans and one day I will get around to doing them! Next…
August 12, 2008It seems that everything has stabilized, but I noticed that the new rebuild took forever. When I got home tonight, I discovered that it created a whole bunch of new archive pages – some of which seem redundant to say the least, but for now I will leave them be as I attempt to settle on the new design. One thing I discovered – the…
August 7, 2008I am currently mid-upgrade of my infrastructure for the Club Josh Daily Update. I went with the fresh install of the software, but it seems to be having some difficulties with the template system. I am upgrading from MT 3.2 to 4.12 which is a HUGE jump, so it looks like there is some massaging of the templates that need to be done. Until then,…
August 7, 2008Since the end of the very good Series 4 of Doctor Who, I have been filling the void by Netflixing some classic Doctor Who stories and getting Daniel to watch them. So far, we have watched The City of Death, the Talons of Weng-Chiang, Genesis of the Daleks, Inferno, and The Three Doctors. I selected them based on an article in the press that was…
August 5, 2008I was lying in bed this morning at 11:42 when the quake hit. The one thing that stood out was the unusually strong P wave. The P wave is the initial strong shock that proceeds the gentle rolling S Wave motion. One thing I am able to do is determine the distance I am from the quake by how long it takes for me to…
July 29, 2008So after a few days of seeing how Daniel’s iPhone operated and just all around drooling, I decided it was high-time that I got my own. Now of course, I thought after a few days the excitement would die down and I would be able to get one without waiting. Boy was I wrong. Here is a log of my attempts: Attempt 1: July 13…
July 25, 2008With some elbow grease and rubbing compound, most of the damage is gone. The remaining scratches are deep and will require some paint work down the toad. But for now, I can drive happily.
