Phonebooks

Posted on March 6, 2011 by Truk

So I wanted some extra money and found an ad on craigslist. I’ve spent the last two days dropping phonebooks everywhere for a hundred and fifteen freaking bucks. It’s a lot harder than it seems. My car has no studded snows, so we can’t drive down the glare ice driveways. I end up in the three feet of snow to keep from landing on my ass. We’ll hafta go out in the morning, but that will finish our route. Even after 600Mg ibuprofen, I’m still feeling quite a bit of pain.

Speaking of cash, I’ve got cheap ad-space and paypal! Email me at truk@truk.tk with what you need.

Snow

Posted on February 26, 2011 by Truk

I really don’t know about anyone else, but I’m really getting tired of this snow. I just saw the banks drop below the top of my Focus wagon, so it has to snow again. We haven’t had any snow in a couple weeks, and there was not only none when the oil was delivered this morning, but it was a balmy 33. note, that it was above freezing, as it was most of the day. When I went to go shovel I was expecting to dust off the cars, not have to push the door open through almost a foot of snow. Glad I wasn’t in a hurry, the swearing that commenced may have reached the neighbors ears. Now we get to freeze the next couple days before the snow starts to melt. Needless to say, my car is now buried, and no longer visible over the banks from down the street. I may borrow my parent’s snowblower for this storm. Looks like rather than working on my car, I’ll be spending spring break wondering if we’ll see spring before the semester ends.

You cant really see the highest snow bank.

Android Angy birds stupidity

Posted on February 19, 2011 by Truk

So, like most of the mainstream Android/Iphone users, I have slowly been addicted to the game Angry Birds (free to us Android users, just because Apple sucks! XD) It’s easy to learn, simple to play, and doesn’t require a huge investment of time being available, but it also doesn’t bore you with the same level over and over again.

What I find funny is that there is now an Angry Birds Lite Beta on the marketplace. ‘Lite’ games are usually demo versions of paid apps, sometimes with adds, and usually missing features. The thing is, this ‘lite’ version, is just the first level of the FREE full app! The other thing is that the full app is not in beta, so they take out the last bunch of levels to make it beta?

The only reason I can think of to make a ‘lite’ version, is so that they can make the full app paid only. Granted, the ads are VERY annoying, but I really don’t want to pay. Probably a good idea to get it now if you want it free.
