Tuesday Jitters

June 17, 2008

It’s one of those Tuesdays, I guess. There’s not much to talk about as not a lot of stuff happened. I just went to work early. Got back home to pick up gf and went to Body ‘n Sole for a massage. She got for herself a full one while I only went for foot reflexology. It did hurt but it wasn’t much like the first time.

As I was out on the road with her, I thought global warming was starting to get real ugly. I mean it was so hot around here as early as 9AM–ran through noon time and temperature (+humidity) only dwindled down around 2:25PM when it started to rain. Man, if I was on the field the whole time today I would’ve gotten sick, that’s guaranteed. Imagine what I would’ve to go through if I was a field worker. I would have worked through sweat only to get wet under these crazy little mid-afternoon showers. I know it’s not good news but I had to share it.

Anyway, more to the tech side now, OK so I actually resetted my MacBook Pro’s SMC today. Thanks to this tip from Apple. I hope doing that would at least fix the screen issue I have experienced since I updated to 10.5.3.  My brother even saw the phenomenon for himself when he tried to use the Mac late last night–that’s after he woke it up by opening the lid. Oh BTW, I got the idea about resetting the SMC from Apple discussions specifically in this thread. It is very clear that I am not the only dude who has a Mac with this mess. At least I know I’m not special.

Sports-wise, I could only wish the Lakers are going to win Game 6 in Boston to push the Finals to a dead-end. That would be fun rather than tuning in to Game 6. But with the Celtics having their crowd behind, I guess it won’t be that difficult to stuff the trophy in the bag. And KG would be all smiles for sure.

Updates from the BlackBerry world? Sure. Here it is–photos about the demo unit of the Javelin (the 3G-less BlackBerry Bold variant) have surfaced online. Check this feed from BlackBerryNews.com and enjoy reading.
