Weezer has always been a favorite band of mine. Their new song 'Pork and Beans' absolutely dominates. The lyrics and smart and funny. The video is great too. Their new album follows the general theme of their others and is called 'The Red Album'.
Here's the video:

Sensible Deduction
Check out this hilarious video. It's from Mad TV and is a called Sensible Deduction. It's a funny take on Snoop Dogg's song Sensual Seduction (edited version) or Sexual Eruption (regular version)

WPT on GSN
If you like poker, you should order GSN - Game Show Network. The WPT just started airing today on it. The best thing is, they are showing new episodes, unlike what CityTV does, they only show episodes that are 2 years old, gets a little annoying after seeing the same one for the 10th time. Ordering GSN was easy from shaw, you can do it online. It's only 2.49 a month for the channel.

Yay Michael's Back!
One of my favorite characters on one of my favorite shows - Lost - came back on last nights episode. I love Michael and have been wondering when if ever he would come back. I was so excited when Walt made an appearance last season. It was a strange circumstance in which he came back. He was on the ship as its janitor. The crew obviously doesn't know who he is and he must be Ben's spy on the ship. Man, this show is so amazing but always leaves so many unanswered questions (what's new, it's lost). Anyways, definitley looking forward to seeing how this plays out. If you haven't seen the episode yet, sorry.

iEverything
Since I got my iPhone, I began to have a heightened awareness of Mac’s and other Apple products. So much so, that I have already decided to get an iMac. I will be getting the 24” model. That will probably happen later this month after another payday or two. Mac’s are a lot more expensive than PC’s but they just seem so much more fun to use and user friendly.
I’m Already looking forward to the creations I will make in iPhoto and iWeb. I even bought a copy of iWork 08’ off ebay in advance of the actual iMac purchase. I’ve been reading magazines and websites about Macs and Apple in general and it’s getting me very excited. I’ve only had my new Dell for 3 months now am I’m ready to scrap it. Well I will try and recover some of the costs from it.
My hesitation with getting or even looking into Macs for the better part of my life has been the misconception that no programs even work on a Mac and I thought the internet was like some special AOL thing or something when browsing from a Mac. I’m looking forward to docking my iPhone right alongside my iMac.

Go Obama
Today is the big primaries of Texas and Ohio. Although I don't live in the US and A, I'm rooting for Barack Obama to win the demoratic party's nomination and then the presidency. The man is an inspiration, a great speaker, and seems like he will take action. He's won the past 11 primaries in a row and I think he will have a good showing tommorrow. It looks like he will win Texas and it should be very close in Ohio. Some of the speeches he has done are awesome.
My favorite quote from him (from the Iowa win speech)
``We are one nation.....We are one people....And our time for change has come!``

www.ruffdeezy.com
Just got my own domain name!
it's ruffdeezy.com!
I thought it would be cool to have my own domain name again. Used to have one in the past for another site I ran for about a year. It was a pro wrestling news website. However, I lost interest in that and let the domain expire. I love creating webpages and the interweb in general. Still trying to figure out a way to make lots of money online. Just need some kind of new idea or new product to sell on ebay.
Anyways, add ruffdeezy.com to your bookmarks.

GSM rules
I recently switched to Fido from Telus after being with them for 8 years. The main reason was I signed a 3 yr contract with telus, got the Moto Q, didn't like the phone, website says 30 day return policy, but doesn't say that isn't on data phones. At the time 4mb per month was useless. So i cancelled the contract, paid the $700 ecf, complained, got the $700 refunded after I had already switched to fido and got an iPhone (2nd reason). Also cancelled home phone with telus because of their $5 long distance admin fee. Using shaw home phone now, no probs at all but tomorrow im porting my home phone # to fido tomorrow to get an iPhone for my wife and another EPP plan. Fido has been great so far. Fido will be even better once they adopt the tier data plan pricing - hopefully next month. When I travel to the States, I'm going to be using a t-mobile prepaid sim instead of paying roaming. GSM rules.
Fido EPP plan
If you are with fido, get this immediatley! What a deal
Fido EPP plan :
* 200 weekday minutes
* Unlimited evening and weekend minutes starting 5pm

Renewed interest in eBay
I have been a member of ebay for 3 years now. When I started out, I was selling to tickets to various concerts and some sporting events. I would buy tickets right away from ticketmaster for concerts that would sell out, then I would post them on ebay and sell them for a profit. After a little bit of learning, I was able to make quite a bit of money doing this. After about a year of that I grew tired of it and stopped using ebay all together for about a year or so. Well now my interest has defitinitley grown. I made 2oo bucks recently selling some stuff that I don't even use.
Solds:
- Old Telus Moto Razr cellphone - $40
- Fido Moto Krzr cellphone that I'm not using cause I have an iPhone - $130
- iPhone case that I used for one day then didn't like it - $10
- Another iPhone case that I ordered online then didn't want to wait for it to arrive so I bought it in the store - $15
I love selling stuff, but as the commercial says, it's more fun when you win it.
Buys:
- Vancouver Canucks return address labels - $6
- Another iPhone case that I'm not going to use - $9
- Blackberry case for my mom - $8
- USB printer cord cause the damn printer didn't come with one - $6
- T-mobile $30 prepaid sim card with 150 mins for when I'm in the States instead of paying so much damn roaming charges - $8
- Apple iWork '08 cause I'm getting a Mac - $60
Not bad considering the shipping costs are included in the prices above. My dream is to find some kind of product, scheme, or idea that I can sell on ebay and do that as my job. Anyways, gonna see if I can find anymore junk in the house that I can unload.

Ziphone!
My iPhone has been unlocked with turbosim since the day I got it. It was 1.1.2 otb. Well once 1.1.3 came out I was interested in updating it which I did using the ijailbreakmobile method. So I had a 1.1.3 still using turbosim. Well I wanted to get rid of the turbosim so I could switch out the sim card easier. Now my iPhone is fully unlocked with the help of Ziphone. It can't get any easier.
Here's what I did:
1. Restored my iPhone to 1.1.3 in iTunes.
2. Ran Ziphone 2.4
Now my phone is totally unlocked and I couldn't be happier. Everythig works perfectly, no problems at all.
Give it a try.

Easiest way to add NES ROMs to your iPhone
I am posting this guide because I haven't really been able to find a simple straightforward guide to do so. There was an easier way to do so previously which was the markmon.mine.nu:90/iphone/repo/repo.plist source but that doesn't work anymore.
1.
Programs needed on your iphone (through installer):
- NES
-OpenSSH
-BSD Subsystem
If you are not sure if you have these or not, go to installer, then to uninstall and it will list the programs you have.
2.
Programs needed on your computer:
There you have it, enjoy!

iphone
Hey,
I finally got my iphone yesterday and I must say that I am so happy. It is the coolest thing of all time. I can't believe how neat all the features of the phone are, not to mention the ipod and internet on it. I don't think it's ever coming to Canada, oh well, I got mine. I will post some pics of it soon.
I haven't played much poker since my last post. In fact the only time I played was in the pokerXfactor subscriber tourney a few days ago. Busted out fairly early, wasn't disappointed though, I knew I was ahead after his raise on the flop but he hit his flush.
here's the hand history

I have my dual-monitor setup now too and it is nice, can't do without it now. Haven't multi-tabled on it yet, but I plan to put in a good session when I feel like it. Will post some pics of the set up too.
