To Be an American...

<1 min read

Oldie but goodie…

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American. She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American too. Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks. There is, however, one exception. A girl named Kristen has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I am not an American." "Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?" "I'm a proud Canadian," boasts the little girl. The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Kristen why she is a Canadian. "Well, my mom and dad are Canadians, so I'm a Canadian too." The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mum was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?" A pause. A smile. "Then," says Kristen, "I'd be an American."

Nexus One: Defective

<1 min read

The screen displays a purple-ish shadow around everything. I do like purple, but I have my limits…

I've sent an email to the Android Market Device Seeding Program, but I can't really complain since they just *gave* me the phone.
