Rainy Days and Sunday

Hobbies, Queer stuff

Back from camping at The Point (pics and comments past the link). First and maybe the last one of the year. SharkBoy, the Mailman and I met up with Normlr and Q for some year end drinking. They do have a lovely trailer with a distinctive colour. And possibly the largest bathroom I have ever seen in a trailer. Really.

Poor Normlr and Q. Being new to The Point they were mauled by certain individuals who’s desperation in getting their rusty, fat loud-mouthed hooks into fresh meat made me feel embarrassed for all parties involved. While we enjoyed watching the Seasies (the year end “Best Of…” show for the campground), one certain seasonal camper decided that behaving like a drunken construction worker from Italy was “fun” and “ok” and that grabbing the Boys’ ass like they were Amsterdam’s Red Light District’s finest. Not cool.

We pointed them to the “good guys” and if they decide to stay as seasonals next year, they’ll be in good hands. I hope they had a good time!

Don’t Tell SharkBoy

iPhone

The iPhones just came down $200 in price. Less than three months since their release. Rumour has it that Apple will offer some price protection but it’s unclear as to how far back that goes.

Meanwhile here comes the iPod Touch, looking like the poor cousin of the iPhone: no camera, no email – yet, WiFi with Safari, iTunes purchase and sync back to your PC/Mac if you buy a song using the iPod. Nifty!

So my time as having a unique cool product is at an end. And I’m painfully aware that it’s nothing more than a glorified iPod now, thanks to Rogers bloated greed. Bongo Wireless, here I come!
