Trying out an iPad....

I'm typing this blog on an iPad. It's a friend's who's letting me try it out.

For general surfing, you tubing, etc. It's pretty cool. I really like
the touch scrolling option! However, typing is a pain in the ass. I
originally thought that I would hate the touch screen key board but I
actually like it. I adapted to typing more or less at full speed
pretty quickly. However, you have to lay it flat on a table or your
lap to type and see the screen. I do somewhat like the the smaller
keyboard when the screen is rotated vertically as I have big hands and
can type with one hand, but that wouldn't be preferable for any sort
of lengthy typing. Only other typing issue is the apostrophe isn't
very convenient.

I haven't really checked out any apps, but can easily see how they
would be pretty cool, but at the same time I wouldn't want to buy an
iPad and then turn around and shell out more money for a dozen apps
which I'm guessing would be the bare minimum for anyone using the iPad
as their primary connection to the Internet.

All in all it's much cooler than I thought it would be and that's
coming from someone who is not an Apple geek.

10 things idiots like to do,

1) Park crooked.

2) Ask the cashier at Wal-Mart to put the Cheetos and 2 of the 6 microwave pizzas back because they can't afford them along with the rest of the crap they're buying. That's why simple arithmetic is important in school kids.

3) They pull up to the drive through and have to open the car door AND get out!

4) They immediately become experts in all sports when their 6 year old child decides to participate in little league, soccer, basketball, etc. They remain experts forever at that point. This despite sucking at sports themselves.

5) When say something particularly stupid, they inform you that it "Was on 'the internet.'" So is goat porn!

6) They like too pull out in front of you as if they are rushing someone to the emergency room then proceed to their destination at half the speed of the posted speed limit.

7) When asked, "How's it going?" They attempt to tell you about their current medical condition. I wasn't serious ok? I could give two shits less!

8) They post stupid shit on Facebook about their kids, their kids' snot, their kids' poop, and their ex. FYI, Facebook isn't a random thought brain fart recording database. You are the only person that thinks your snotty, dirty, loud, obnoxious kids are cute!

9) They ask tall people how tall we are. Evidently taller than you can guestimate from down there! How much do you weigh? What color is your 'real' hair? How many orders of Chile Cheese Fries from Sonic did it take you to get those hips?

10) They get offended easily when their idiocy is pointed out to them. Sorry, but idiots are like farts, you have to laugh. EVERYTIME!

One of the best sites on nutrition info that I've come across. http://www.why-low-carb-diets-work.com/

Gary Taubes, author of the excellent book "Good Calories Bad Calories" provides this excellent site provided up to date and accurate nutrition information. I don't recommend a lot of sites as stand alone information sources, but this one is hard to beat.
