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.

regards

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.
