Damnit! Just grabbed my iPad & forgot I plugged it in. Yanked on the cord again. UGH! Can't believe I haven't bent up the charging port yet.    Now that I think about it, this iPad is 7 years old. wow

It's the first iPad Air. I may have exaggerated on how old it is. I can't remember exactly. I know it's at least 5 years old. I used to take it with me when I was on the road, because, the laptop I got, an ASUS, was too heavy. Didn't think weight was an issue when I got it. Rookie mistake. It is a MAJOR issue. That ASUS weighed a TON! I have a very light HP now, which I take with me. About all I use the iPad for now is a remote control. lol I am an expert at learning the hard way.

I have a first generation iPad.  It's like a brick.  I use it for books.  There's also a little music on there.  I don't think it plays movies.

I remember when they first came out.  This software engineer who lives in my neighborhood showed me his.  It was like magical.  I don't know if the ipad was the first tablet, but it is stunningly compact.  They've increased the functionality radically since then.  I got this via craigslist from another tech guy who had too much hardware.  Paid a hundred bucks for it and it's still working after 5 years.

Ok, I just heard the fighter jets fly over. The race must be starting.

thats all i use it for cannot load high quality mp4 due to chip speed, just re-encode to ipad/ipad 2 settings  with a size less than 1gb and all ok.  I do like the book set up but use a mini ipad for books

Can't say I ever remembered fireworks on Memorial Day? Strange neighbors.

Inappropriate fireworks are a hallmark of wallies.

We had a guy in an old 30's truck park by the dumpster and start blaring, like, watered down Motown? It was like muzak at the mall in the 90's, so my mom went and threatened him. He went away!

The garbage trailer bums car, which they left a dog in for three days, got a "Move your car or we cube it" sticker from the police, that's nice, but their poo trailer has not.


Santa scallywag and his poo have moved on, but a different homeless person has emulated his camping in parking lot tree strategy. We also got shitty graffiti, so that's nice.

Bunch of tornadoes ripped through last night. One person killed. More tornado watches til eight tonight.     Ok, this poo is gettin old.

New iPod announced today. I didn't know they still made iPods.

Hopefully, this one will clean your house while you listen to it.

8 pm and it's still hot as hell out. Had a ham sammy for dinner. Didn't feel like cooking anything and adding to the problem.

Microsoft offered me 500 points for installing their mobile app, so I did. It runs like crap.  And they didn't give me my points.
