I feel so bad… Weight Watchers is down and I am kinda Pissed

This is almost like Harry Potter all over again. I "jested" w/ people who sit around and count "points". Now I am one of those people. And I am guessing today is the first time that Weight Watchers has been down in the past month that I have been using it. I just freakin' want to put in my food I have eaten today.

What is curious about the outage is that I can't log into the website or any of the Android apps. On my iPad though it "seems" that the iOS version is still working and can connect. Wondering how the backends are done differently now between all three app types.

Time for the US Post Office to shut down permanently

I am sorry if you work for the US Post office, but after trying 3 different post offices to get a passport, All of them are completely useless. They don't answer the phone, no way to leave a message or there is no one there to handle passports during the hours posted.

Time for the US Post Office to go the way of dinosaurs.

Age/Generation limit on being a gentleman?

After an experience tonight, and a few others in the past, I think being a gentlemen seems to need a cut off any more. Maybe along the lines of a "respectable" age of a girl to date ((your age/2)+7). Course it could just be I am getting old and need to start shouting at the kids in my yard.

My first post…

From my new iPad. Other than my friends never reading my blog, this is much more fun than FriendFace. The wordpress app makes updating so easy.

Going to give it a shot, Code Year 2012

Learned this weekend from a friend about Code Academy starting a free online programming tutorial using javascript. Personally I have avoided programming in the past short of learning some perl and shell scripting to make my life as a SysAdmin easier. Figured I would give it a shot and maybe shoot to get a work at home job writing code. Or if I am really lucky some really addictive smart phone/tablet game that sells millions for $.99 a pop. Then I don't have to worry about my rather weak 401k's I have.
