Doing some cleaning, and I found this on my desktop
That’s right, The Bible is the most popular book in DFW. I figured Harry Potter would be up there. But The Bible? Who are these people trying to fool/impress? #3 and #5 prove that most of Facebook’s users have at least a high school education. #4, I had to google – apparently it’s the sequel to the Da Vinci Code. Seriously?
I got a message on ebay from another user, kiki3681 from France. They wanted to know about the Airport Express I purchased.
bonjour,
j’ai vu sur ebay que tu avais acheté une borne air tunes en provenance de hong kong pour un prix de 50 euros environ…
je pense faire le meme achat, mais j’ai un doute sur la compatibilité de le borne avec les prises éléctriques françaises… utilises tu un adaptateur?
merci par avance de ta réponse.
Etienne
I don’t speak French, so I hoped on over to Google Translate
Hello,
I saw on ebay that you had purchased an air terminal in tunes From hong kong for a price of about 50 euros …
I think making the same purchase, but I doubt on the The terminal is compatible with electric outlets French … You use an adapter?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Etienne
So simple question – they wanted to know what adapter the Airport Express came with. So I wrote my response and sent it in English along with the French Google Translated version. Brilliant.
Turns out the Airport Express is like Apple notebook and iPod chargers – you can remove the plug and switch in the correct one to match your outlets. Brilliant.
Also, isn’t Etienne a great name?
My response
Hi,
Sorry I do not speak French so I used Google’s Translate feature
The Airport Express I purchased came with a plug for American outlets. The plug is removable, like with the Apple notebook >chargers. I imagine that there are French adapters that would fit the Airport Express available from Apple
Hope that helps

Bonjour,
Désolé je ne parle pas français alors j’ai utilisé fonctionnalité Google Translate
L’Airport Express j’ai acheté livrée avec un plug-in pour American points de vente. Le plug-in est amovible, comme avec le >bloc-notes Apple chargeurs. J’imagine qu’il existe des adaptateurs français qui puisse convenir à l’Airport Express d’Apple disponible
Espoir qui aide

when I said Pushing Daisies was a “strong second”
Turns out I was wrong. Pushing Daisies is a strong first. Tonight’s episode was amazing.
It was so perfect and excellent, I almost cried.
I just hope I won’t be needed to save this show like I did with 30 Rock.
Also, I too wanted to be a Jedi
Oh Starbuck…
Today started off with a whimper.
I wanted to be stuck in traffic. I wasn’t feeling that great. But the Universe just had to twist the knife and make today Columbus Day. Kids aren’t in school. People are taking the day off. Families are going to the fair. Thus, no traffic. I was cruising to work at 70+ mph. Sometimes it’s nice to be caught in traffic. I wanted a slow start. Sort of ease into the day, by sitting my car listening to music. It was so bad – when I got to my exit, I was thinking of skipping it and taking the long way. I didn’t.
This week is going to be rough though. I have a project due next week for CSE 5321, Software Testing. Originally, our team started with 5 people. Then a guy dropped early on. Then another guy dropped much later. Here’s a ProTip: If you’re going to drop a class and you’re on a team, don’t wait until someone calls you to find out why you aren’t at the meeting to announce your intentions. It’s just bad form.
Plus my birthday is coming up on Saturday. Who wants to face their own mortality when you’re supposed to be knee-deep in Increment 1?
The sorta good news is that 2 guys offered to join our team. But, they’re in the on-campus section. I’m taking the class online. We aren’t supposed to mix. I emailed the Professor, hopefully he’ll allow it.
And in more sorta good news, I hit a stretch of Supergrass on the way home. The genius that lives inside my iTunes and sets up my smart playlists for my iPod, put a full album on there. Supergrass is one of the great overlooked bands
And in more awesome news, the new Radiohead album is coming out on Wednesday. I ordered the discbox – so I’ll get the actual cd + extras in December, but I’ll get the digital download with everyone else on Wednesday. I think that’ll sort of balance the week out. Normally I’m gorging myself on live recordings before a new Radiohead cd. But this time, I’ll be hitting it fresh. I’m really excited about that. I’m also really excited about a studio version of Nude. Side note: I’ll have to get a record player. I don’t have one.
Why is Bionic Woman such shit and Battlestar Galactica such awesome?
Journeyman is definitely the best new show this season. Or maybe Aliens in America. Haven’t decided yet. Pushing Daisies is a strong second.
